SIZE REDUCTION | TECHNOLOGY
Viper series comprises small press-side units through to large, central granulators, available with rotor diameters of 140, 200, 300, 420, 570, 810 and 900 mm (6, 8, 12, 17, 23, 32 and 35 inches), and maxi- mum throughputs from 36 kg/hr (80 lb/h) to 6,000 kg/hr (13,200 lb/h). Standard features include hardened steel (hardened to 550HV) cutting chambers, water cooling on all rotors 12-inches and larger, and full insulation for quieter operation. Larger screen areas are available for higher throughputs, and the cutting knives are easy-to- sharpen and -replace ‘pre- gapped’. Access to the cutting chamber for maintenance and cleaning does not require tools and there is great flexibility to adapt the core of most Viper machines to various in-feed systems, cutting-chamber geometries, and evacuation requirements.
“I believe that the great innovation in
the Viper line was to combine and build in many smaller innovations and im- provements that might have been added-cost options before,” adds Miller. “The result was a standard product that was loaded with features and yet cost- efficient to buy. We have found that there are a growing minority of customers who really understand and appreciate the integral role of size-reduction equipment to their operations. To them, a granulator or shredder is not just a machine that you run until it quits, then fixing or replacing it. These customers have been pushing us to take the basic configuration of the
Viper granulators – the motors,
rotors, and boxes – then customise them with various manual or conveyor in-feeds, special hoppers, different evacuation schemes, and a range of custom controls – everything from simple buttons to more advanced HMIs and PLC-driven controls. Customers are also considering options for different
