The Gala Band Filtration System (BF) for process water filtration is designed for the underwater pellet production line (for example, during direct crystallization) in which there are several color changes throughout the day. The BF can [...]

The process water system BF fulfils the following functions within a underwater pelletizing systeme: * Collecting of the process water and feeding it at the required pressure to the individual locations of consumption * Cooling of the [...]

With the bidirectional polymer diverter valve (Model BiPoDV), the melt is diverted sequentially into different directions during the production process. This means that, depending on the requirements of the job, the machine operator can [...]

The Gala Continuous Band Filtration (CBF) performs process water filtration. It is designed as a retrofit for the pellet production line where fines are regularly created on some products and operator attendance would normally be required [...]

Gala can provide customer-specific control systems based on the customer's needs. Gala uses standardized PLC based control systems for its underwater pelletizing systems; however, in most cases we are able to implement customer-specified [...]

D2 is the material of construction known as the benchmark of the industry. Much like steel belted radial tires you get on a new car, this material will usually get the job done at a low price. The primary element is 12% Chrome which gives [...]

Gala’s patented self-aligning cutter hub provides precise positioning between die plate and pelletizer shaft, ensuring alignment of all cutter blades against the die face. This results in uniform pellet quality and reduced blade and die [...]

The underwater cutting chamber is the housing in which the pellets are actually cut in the polymer pelletizing process. The pelletizer is coupled to the cutting chamber, which places the cutter blades inside the cutting chamber (often [...]

Gala has been manufacturing precision die plates for its underwater pelletizers since the late 1970s. The die plate is the heart of the Gala underwater pelletizing system. All Gala die plates are custom designed to fit each customer’s [...]

Gala’s die grinding tool gives you the option of grinding the die plate of an underwater pelletizer without removing it by simply threading the tool onto the cutter hub holder in place of the cutter hub. This unique tool is an effective [...]

In underwater pelletizing systems, the dual canister filter provides extra process water filtration in high production situations in which shutdowns are kept to a minimum or when processing highly filled products that create fine [...]

MAAG polymer diverter valves (DV) are based on the proven single-piston design that operates without any additional seals. The polymer diverter valves type DV are used in plastics manufacture, pelletizing, and compounding applications [...]

The Gala DFRS removes particles down to 0.14 mm from process water. Clean process water after filtration in a polymer production process avoids the contamination of the product and the settling of fines in key underwater pelletizing system [...]

The E-type control system was developed for a defined machine configuration and is an affordable and compact control system for larger underwater pelletizing systems. It also includes upgrade [...]

The Gala FRS removes fine particles greater than 0.15 mm in size from process water used in conjunction with underwater pelletizing systems. Clean process water in a polymer production process prevents product contamination and the [...]

Gala provides a number of special tools for the operator of a Gala underwater pelletizer and for underwater cutting. These tools are designed to allow the successful performance of specific tasks. The flow guide provides optimization of [...]

The H-type control system can be customized to meet specific requirements and permits virtually unlimited options for underwater pelletizing systems. It offers the highest level of operating and control comfort with separate control panel [...]

Gala’s IS (Integrated Sieve) Tempered Water System features a V-wire screen mounted directly under the dryer water outlet to filter solids from the process water prior to recirculation to the pelletizer. The screen is easy to remove for [...]

The control system for the Gala LPU® for underwater pelletizing systems is designed to meet the requirements of a laboratory system with low throughput in polymer production. Compact design, clear separation of possible options, and the [...]

The control system for the Gala MB500® is designed for pelletizing rates of up to 500 kg/h (1102 lbs/hr) in underwater pelletizing systems. Compact design, clear separation of possible options, and the use of standardized software, [...]

The MB500® Tempered Water System is a result of a cooperative effort between Gala and its customers to develop a underwater pelletizing machine which directly addresses the need for the custom compounder to thoroughly clean the system [...]

With the multidirectional polymer diverter valve (Gala Model MdPoDV), the melt is diverted sequentially into different directions during production. The MdPoDV is designed to allow a continuous operation of the production machine and to [...]

Nearly all metal components within the cetrifugal dryer and the spin dryer used with pelletizing systems can be coated with a durable non-stick coating. This is normally confined to product contacting areas to reduce costs but can be [...]

Bolts to dryer resin outlet of a centrifugal pellet dryer or spin dryer Constructed of 304 S/S Designed to divert product during start-up, for sampling or filling containers Manually or pneumatically [...]

The polymer diverter valve is used to direct the polymer melt from the pump or extruder to the floor, to the side, or directly into the die plate. It can be used in underwater pellletizing systems at the start of the pelletizing [...]
