AXP Series Pellet Mill

Industrial versatility with compact design

La AXP Series of filament pelletizers has been designed to offer high performance with low maintenance and a compact format that optimizes the use of plant space.
Available with rotors of 4”, 6”, 8”, 12” and 16” (102, 152, 203, 305 and 406 mm).
Production capacity of up to 6.500 lb/h (2.950 kg/h).

No tools are required to open the acoustic cover or cutting chamber, or to remove the upper roller for maintenance or cleaning.
Thanks to its robustness and ease of use, the Axp It is one of the most versatile pelletizers on the market, capable of processing everything from flexible rubber-like thermoplastics to fragile or fiberglass-reinforced materials.
Designed to operate continuously under the most demanding conditions.

Advantages over other solutions

• 50% less space occupied regarding pellet mills with reduction gearbox
• Without gearbox or universal joints: simplified transmission system that reduces costly mechanical failures
• Non-motorized upper roller: driven by contact with the lower roller, ensuring synchronized speed and greater durability of the Hypalon coating
• Fixed blade system with Push/Pull adjustment: higher cutting precision than conventional eccentric systems
• Traditional ball bearings in the rotor: allow higher RPMs compared to spherical roller bearings
• Large overhead pneumatic cylinders: diameter of 2 1/2″ (63,5mm) for greater pulling force and better access to the cutting chamber
• Quick clean: Tool-free access, slide-out chute, no-clog design
