The Blackfriars 525 rubber bale granulator may be operated as a manual or automatic installation, producing a uniform granule at consistent rates. Mechanical assistance is fitted where required to ease access to the cutting chamber. A complete clean down of the machine for material changes is a simple task.

PERFORMANCE
The Blackfriars 525 rubber bale granulator machine accepts complete 35kg bales of natural rubber and most grades of synthetic rubbers. In one pass it reduces these bales to granules. Granules in various sizes are obtainable down to a minimum size of between 6 – 8mm.

OUTPUT
This naturally depends upon the rubber being processed and the granule size. Typically, with many rubbers an output of 1,500 kg per hour is obtainable.

POWER REQUIREMENTS
The main driving motor is typically 75 kw. The granulator has a V-rope drive.

MACHINE CONSTRUCTION
The machine combines in a simple but ingenious way, several features including a rotor, storage chamber and a special knife configuration.

NOISE
Blackfriars supply complete sound attenuating enclosures.

SAFETY
The 525 rubber bale granulator incorporates the  Blackfriars Scrulok Safety Switching System (with positive mechanical locking) which guards entry to the cutting chamber.
The whole machine is fully interlocked, yet readily accessible.
