Pelletizer knives are specialized cutting tools used in plastic processing and recycling industries to cut polymer strands into uniform pellets. These blades are engineered for high performance in both underwater pelletizing and dry-cut pelletizing systems, where precision and durability are essential.
Manufactured from tungsten carbide, ASP steel, and high-grade tool steels, pelletizer knives are designed to withstand the abrasive and high-temperature conditions of cutting thermoplastics. The hardness of these materials ensures clean cuts, extended blade life, and reduced downtime.
Applications include:
-
Plastic recycling – cutting reprocessed polymer strands
-
Underwater pelletizing of thermoplastic materials
-
Dry-cut pelletizing in extrusion processes
-
Compounding and masterbatch production
