What can go wrong if your granulator isn’t maintained correctly

Your granulator is a massive piece of equipment that is incredibly hard working. And the last thing you want is for it to breakdown in the middle of the day and bring your working day to a complete stop. One easy way to avoid costly granulator repairs is to ensure that you have regular granulator maintenance booked in. 

If you don’t currently have a maintenance plan set in place, you might find that your machine could be suffering from any of these three issues – 

  • Increased heat 

There can be a build up of heat in the cutting chamber as the materials may not be being cutting correctly. 

  • Increased noise

If moving parts aren’t correctly lubricated, then they may start to grind against each other causing more noise than usual. 

  • Reduced output 

When everything is working as it should, then the granulating process should quick, quiet and precise. However, you’ll notice that your output will be effected in multiple different ways when your granulator is need of some maintenance.
