2. Structural Features and Working Principle 2.1 General Description SG-23/30 series are suitable for granulating waste plastics for directly recycling use. Before granulating, it’s necessary to clean metal scraps and dirts. Mount magnet at the material inlet to prevent metal scraps from getting into cutting chamber and bringing damage to the blades.
The granulated materials are dropped into the storage box (E) via the screen and be conveyed via discharging pipe (F). Use feeding blower to absorb the granulated materials into cyclone dust collector to separate the air and dust. The particles can be reused directly or sent to somewhere for storage after being granulated.

Clean the granulator from rust protection agent before it is used. Connection 1) Place a separator under cyclone device,the diameter isФ150mm. 2) Connect to conveying pipe,the diameter is 4"。 3) Mount dust collection device including air and dust collection bags. 4) Place a container under the separator to help collecting plastic material after dust removing.
3) Push or pull the rotary blade rest and blades to see if there is any loose. If any of the above situations occurs, please contact the local representative or SHINI Company. 4.1 Startup Pretest 1. Unpainted part of the machine has been spread with anti-rust oil. Before use, clear the anti-rust oil carefully.
4.2 Startup and Shutdown The startup and shutdown of SG-23/30 series are controlled by the start switch and stop switch on control panel. Picture 4-1: Startup and shutdown If there are still materials which have not been granulated in feed box and cutting chamber, the machine should not be shut down.
2) Loosen the star screws on feed box. 3) Open the feed box backward. Note! The feed box of SG-23/30 Granulator is supported by a piece of air spring and two pieces of sleeves, which could open the feed box backwards by supporting.
Note! Hold the screen bracket while loosening the star screws to prevent it from falling off. 4.4 Close Feed Box, Mount Screen Bracket and Storage Box Note! Clean the joint suface first before closing it. Be careful! Do not crush it when closing it! 4.4.1 Mount Screen Bracket and Storage Box 1) Place the screen bracket in specified position and put the screen on it.
