Description:
The FERRO TECH WP-30-5-5 Roll Compactor is a high-performance industrial powder compaction system, designed for efficient dry granulation and material densification. Featuring twin 12" diameter x 5" wide rolls in a vertically stacked configuration, this unit applies high-pressure compaction using a hydraulic cylinder. The rolls are driven by a 20 HP motor through a Hansen gear reducer, ensuring consistent pressure and uniform granule formation.
The side screw-fed hopper system, with an integrated auger, gear, and motor drive, ensures a steady material flow, optimizing the compaction process. Base-mounted on a steel frame with 3' high leg supports, the system is built for industrial-grade performance and longevity.
