Basics
- This page aims to organise and conduct research on the Pelletizer.
Main Types of Pelletizers
Screw Based
- Similar to a filament extruder, but with a rotating "cutter" on one end
- Changing the speed of the cutter wheel changes the pellet length
- Due to being able to seal the tube, and still run the screw, can higher densities be reached due to the increased pressure? Needs More Research
- These have less throughput, so may not be the best option for large scale use, but better for home use perhaps
