Integration, optimization, energy efficiency, production consistency, homogeneous regrind characteristics and absence of dust, these are the technological developments that CMG will present at K 2019.

Materials, production, design and engineering are all characterized by a common element - innovation - that CMG offers in the form of complete solutions for size reduction, whose features are at the apex of the various application sectors: thermoforming, extrusion, blow molding, injection molding, recycling and cables.

At its stand, CMG only displays novelties:  technologies and solutions designed to meet all the unique and innovative demands of the circular economy. Post-industrial and post-consumer recycling processes have renewed connotations that aim at reintroducing recycled materials into the production process on large scale.

Innovations for injection molding

At K 2019 CMG launches the new G17 and G25 granulators configured for applications on the press. These are new product lines with important features including the tangential-cut rotor blades to obtain utmost cutting precision, homogeneity of the size and shape of the regrind and absence of dust. These features make the new G17 and G25 series the most suitable for precision molding.

Technological advances for extrusion

The new G25 series also supports the numerous solutions that CMG offers for application on sheet and film extrusion lines for edge trim recovery, with the ET1, ET2 and ET3 versions. The blades with tangential cut and the self-ventilated cutting chamber allow a precise and dust-free regrind production.

Cutting-edge design for thermoforming

With the new model XT35-120 CMG consolidates its technological and application leadership in relation to all needs in the recovery of sheet, skeletal and reject parts in the production of thermoformed packaging. In addition to the cutting chamber with a design dedicated to sheet grinding and special steel blades for extended performance over time, the precision of the roller unit, with double motor and automatic pressure control, make this range the perfect choice for in-line and off-line applications.

Supergranulators for post-consumer recycling

At CMG stand, the new Evoluzione series takes the forefront position. The new models EV916 and EV616 represents the most performing, versatile, efficient and sustainable solutions. The model on display is the EV616, a 9-ton giant which however features sufficiently compact dimensions for placing it in the company’s stand. In addition to the precision to the hundreth of a millimeter in the construction of the new cutting chamber, which allows a much longer blade life compared to conventional models, all the Evoluzione models are equipped with advanced controls, in the Industry 4.0 style, to make the machine operation 100% monitorable and manageable. Operating temperature, blade wear, productivity, operating efficiency, energy consumption,  all functional parameters managed on the machine or remotely with OPC-UA protocol connectivity, are just some of the distinctive features.

Adaptive Motor Power (AMP)

All CMG units, from medium to high capacity, feature the Adaptive Motor Power function. The granulator is able to independently determine which power level to adopt to carry out its work, depending on the quantity of material to be ground, the shape, the weight, the thickness, the type of plastic, the temperature of the piece. The AMP makes it possible to optimize the quality of the regrind (particle homogeneity and absence of dust) and to reduce energy consumption to the minimum. 25 Wh/kg is the amount of energy that a CMG granulator uses, compared to 40 Wh/kg and more of a conventional unit. The return on the investment for the AMP is achieved in only a few months.

No more dust

With a VP400 evacuation system on display in Düsseldorf, CMG presents the new series of VP evacuation systems. The unique feature of VP systems is the total absence of dust particles released into the environment, a very common problem associated to conventional regrind handling systems.
