C series Virtus' granulators are tailored to municipal or large-scale recycling applications and for dealing with postconsumer scrap. The granulators have widths ranging from about 1 foot to about 3 feet, 4 inches. The machines are soundproofed and come with replaceable wear plates and an automatic hydraulic system that allows access for cleanouts and maintenance.
What's new? Two new models, the C25 and C40, with rotor diameters of 10 and 16 inches, respectively. The C40 is pictured.
Benefits: Wear-resistant design and the ability to handle very large items. With its chamber design, aggressive rotors and infeed features, the series can take very big cuts of large blow-molded parts, such as 5-gallon water jugs. A curved rear wall prevents obstructions. For improved safety, the knives can be adjusted outside the machines.
