At NPE 2018, Conair officially launches its entirely new portfolio of Viper\u2122 granulators<\/a> with standard features that include improved sound insulation, hardened and water-cooled cutting chambers on most models, as well as bigger screens for increased throughput compared to the company\u2019s previous offerings. Seven different models will be on display at the show, in configurations for injection molding<\/a>, blow molding, and both pipe\/profile and film\/sheet extrusion. Conair is exhibiting in Booths W1845, W2163, and S14045 in the Orange County Convention Center, Orlando FL.<\/p>\n

\"\"From small press-side units to large, central granulators, the new Viper product line includes 14 different models with rotor diameters of 6, 8, 12, 17 and 23 inches (140, 200, 300, 420 and 570 mm), and maximum throughputs from 80 lb\/hr (36 kg\/hr) to 3800 lb\/hr (1724 kg\/hr). Tangential-feed cutting chambers are standard on smaller grinders, while large units come in a super-tangential configuration to facilitate feeding of large and bulky scrap. Three-blade open rotors are also standard, and other rotor designs are available. Larger granulators and specialty units will be added to the line in the near future.<\/p>\n

We also wanted to make standard as many popular features as possible. I think we have done just that and very successfully. This may well be the largest product launch at NPE 2018 and it certainly is one of the most exciting.\u201d Among the important standard features and benefits of the new Viper granulators line are:<\/p>\n
