Struggling with Pelletizing Certain Materials?

Strand pelletizing can be difficult when polymers are brittle, elastic, high in viscosity, or unable to form stable strands. This video shows how face-cut pelletizing offers an alternative by cutting material directly at the die face, before strands break, harden, or deform.

  • Why do some materials fail during strand pelletizing?
  • How does face-cut pelletizing change where and when the material is cut?
  • How do blade speed and extruder throughput influence pellet size?
