Last April, Italian granulator manufacturer CMG
presented a new cutting chamber for its Evoluzione series where a new rotor configuration allows rotating blades to cut material perpendicularly against fixed blades. The blades are mounted directly on the end of the support bracket, which not only facilitates high inclination of the blades, but allows for easy and quick maintenance/replacement as the cutting chamber is accessible from the front of the ma- chine. The material does not rotate with the rotor, avoiding the dust and small particles which become waste material in the washing phase, and the production of micro particles is reduced to a few percentage points, compared to 15% or more with a conventional granulator. The open rotor design occupies only 30% of the space inside the cutting chamber and the ratio between the volume of the rotor and the cutting chamber is 30/70, while that of conventional granulators is 70/30. The cutting chamber also benefits from tangential development, guarantee- ing smooth material ingestion without resorting to forced feeding systems. The EV916 and EV616 models offer solutions for the most critical operat-

ing conditions which require high performance characteristics such as increased granulation capacity, versatility, efficiency, and sustainability. CMG has also launched a new series of small
granulators for applications in the medical industry. The G17-MED series has been designed to obtain the most homogeneous regrind shape and dimen- sions with minimal dust. An additional benefit of this new line is the ability to produce regrind with very small dimensions which has no adverse impact
