MAROON PELLET WHITE PELLET BLACK PELLET

One change was to deliver the raw material in round, underwater-cut pellets rather than the square pellets provided by the other material source. The shape processed more efficiently, delivering a cycle-time reduction and, more significantly, reducing wear on the material handling equipment that carried the pellets 500 feet from silo to press.

The composite pellet is manufactured through pultruding continuous fiber filaments that are melt permeated with polymer in an impregnation die, creating a product with 20% to 60%, by weight, fiber content that is 12mm in length.     In other words, the individual reinforcing fibers are aligned with respect to each other, and are exactly as long (usually 1/2 inch or 12 mm) as the pellet.
