Feed long parts easily. Create high-quality plastic regrind.
Virtus Equipment’s Pipe and Profile Granulators are heavy-duty granulation systems engineered for efficient size reduction of long, rigid plastic pipes and profiles. With a design tailored to handle extended material length and large cross-sections, these granulators help recycling operations turn bulky and hard-to-process plastics into uniform regrind suitable for reuse or downstream processing.
Shredder Process
These granulators are designed to process a wide range of rigid plastics, including:
Their robust build and optimized feed design allow them to handle long and complex parts without pre-cutting.
Virtus Equipment’s Pipe and Profile Granulators provide a powerful and reliable granulation solution for long and rigid plastic feedstocks. With features like external knife adjustment, oversized bearings, and a variety of rotor options, these machines offer easy upkeep, adaptability, and robust performance — ideal for facilities focused on high throughput and consistent regrind quality.
Virtus Equipment supplies Pipe and Profile Granulators throughout the United States, backed by technical consultation, system configuration support, installation assistance, and aftermarket services tailored to plastics recycling operations. Our nationwide service network ensures fast response times, optimized performance, and long-term reliability for recycling facilities and production plants across the country.
Virtus Equipment's The P Series Pipe and Profile Granulators for plastics are available in rotor widths of up to 1400 mm and diameters ranging from 560 to 700 mm. The completely-welded, heavy-steel cutting chamber is angled and fitted with an extended hopper to allow easy feeding of parts. The standard V-cut creates high-quality regrind with a very low percentage of fines in the output. Other standard features include a hydraulically-opened hopper for outboard bearings reducing the risk of contamination.
Virtus Pipe and Profile Granulators are commonly used in:
These granulators support operations that need reliable size reduction for rigid, elongated plastics.

Pipe and profile granulators are specialized machines designed to process long and bulky plastic pipes, profiles, and extruded parts efficiently. Virtus Equipment’s P-Series granulators feature heavy-duty construction and advanced rotor designs for smooth, reliable, and continuous operation in extrusion recycling systems.
Virtus Equipment’s P-Series granulators come with a completely welded, heavy-steel cutting chamber, extended angled hopper, and V-cut rotor design to ensure high-quality regrind with minimal fines. The hydraulically opened hopper and outboard bearings reduce contamination risks and simplify maintenance.
Yes. The P-Series is specifically engineered to handle long plastic pipes and profiles without the need for additional feeding platforms. Its level feeding hopper allows easy loading of oversized materials, while the smart design prevents blockages or backups during operation.
By converting plastic pipes, profiles, and extruded parts into uniform regrind, these granulators enable efficient material reuse, reduced waste, and lower production costs. Their low-maintenance design ensures continuous operation with minimal downtime.
