Process Schematic


The process schematic shows the flow of resin through a Gala Underwater Pelletizing System. Material is fed into an extruder or melt pump, which forces the molten polymer through a screen changer and/or polymer diverter, then through the pelletizer die plate. As the polymer emerges from the die, pellets are cut by rotating blades and are solidified by the process water flowing across the die face inside the cutting chamber. The process water transports the pellets to a centrifugal dryer where the water is removed and the dry pellets are discharged. The process water is contained in a closed loop so there is minimal water loss and very little housekeeping involved.
