ZE Series Pellet Mill

Cantilever strength with reinforced precision for medium production

Available in rotor sizes of 4 "(101,6 mm) y 8 "(203,2 mm), ZE Series de Bay Plastics Machinery It represents the most robust cantilever pellet mill in the industry. It inherits key components from the Z Series (rotor, upper roller, and fixed blade), but with an optimized and more affordable design, without compromising its industrial performance.

One of the most valued features in both the Z Series and the ZE Series is the cutting system with Fixed blade fully supported on reinforced insulation plate, which maintains a constant and precise cutting space even under high mechanical demands.

Key advantages of ZE design

Precise and durable cut

• Reinforced insulation board which fully supports the fixed blade holder: improves the stability of the cutting system and allows for narrow cutting spaces to be maintained.
• Eccentric lower roller, which reduces the distance to the doctor blade by almost 10%.
• Rotor with 32 teeth with stellite tip and fixed blade of solid tungsten carbide (sharpenable on all four sides).

Quiet, low-maintenance design

• Serpentine belt drive system, gearless: reduces noise and eliminates frequent maintenance tasks.
• Electronically driven upper roller: No pressure when the machine is off, prolonging the life of the Hypalon coating.

Immediate access for cleaning

• Folding feeding table, which allows full access to the cutting chamber.
• Straight discharge hopper, designed for continuous, unobstructed flow.
• Chromed rotor shaft, which eliminates frictional seizure.
• Lower roller with diamond finish y Hypalon coated top roller.

Thermal efficiency and safety

• Externally mounted engines to improve cooling while keeping the driveline protected within the frame (optional: engine cover).
• Zero speed safety switch, which prevents the cutting chamber from opening if the components are moving.
• OSHA Compliant Interlock System, with no accessible pinch points when the housing is closed.
