granulation applications. It uses an efficient scissor-cut system that reduces wear and saves energy during cutting, while a reversible screen further extends service life and operational uptime. “The 800 Series is the pinnacle of granulation technology for Rapid,” said Anders Mårtensson, sales and marketing director at Rapid. “Not only is it our largest and most powerful granulator, but it also introduces a level of operator safety not yet seen in this industry.”
It allows for knife changes from the back of the
machine, keeping operators at a safe distance from the rotor and eliminating the need to work within the cutting chamber. Rapid has also taken a step forward in digital
production monitoring with its latest innovation, called Predict, which gives operators instant insights into how their granulators are performing. This can help them perform tasks such as material feeding, operational adjustments, and energy- optimised performance improvements at the production source, to speed up decision-making. Finally, its RMD (rapid metal detection) is a safety solution designed for slow-speed granulators. It instantly halts the rotor as soon as metal is detect-
ed – safeguarding the interface between fixed and rotating knives – without interrupting production. RMD is fully integrated into the granulator,
remaining hidden and non-intrusive. Unlike conventional metal detectors, it protects where it matters most, before contaminants reach the cutting chamber, says Rapid. This prevents costly damage to the rotor and knives while minimising downtime and maintaining process continuity. �
