Gala Custom Solutions
Continuous Process (CP) System
Gala Underwater Pelletizers are frequently used for the continuous and discontinuous production of Polycondensation Polymers (polyamides, polyester, etc.) downstream of a reactor. Gala Underwater Pelletizing Systems deliver –
- excellent pellet quality and uniformity
- high degree of automation
- low maintenance requirements
- melt pump
- screen changer for melt filtration
- pelletizer
- dwell time definition
- pellet dewatering
- caprolactam handling (only for PA-6)
- process water heating and filtration
- integration of the extraction (only for PA-6)
- dryer
- overall line control
- redundant design
- multiple lines in a parallel arrangement to achieve daily output
In the transition from the traditional strand pelletizing process to underwater, it is irrelevant whether the user opts for a continuous or a discontinuous process in the early stages of the project planning and design. Gala’s state-of-the-art underwater pelletizing technology can be used with either process and, due to the modular design, can later be easily changed.
