Vogelsang USA Highlights Rotacut Advanced Grinder Technology For Wastewater Applications

Revolutionizing efficiency and protection in the wastewater sector

Vogelsang USA, the inventor of the rotary lobe pump with elastomer-coated lobes, highlights the RotaCut, an innovative cutting technology designed to deliver superior performance, versatility, and reliability. This cutter sets a high standard for cutting, homogenization, and protection in the wastewater industry. Unlike Twin-shaft grinders, RotaCut is a macerator that uses a cutting screen to provide more consistent particle sizes. For sludge processing applications, RotaCut offers several key benefits not available with other grinders.

The RotaCut’s cutting-edge features address key challenges faced by operators. It can remove heavy solids and cut fibrous and stringy solids down to a consistent size, ensuring pump and process equipment are protected. Many plant operators see improved performance from their dewatering equipment and/or digester operations. RotaCut’s scissor-like cutting action both handles stingy solids and hairballs, but also conditions sludge, reducing maintenance issues with centrifuges and belt presses. Its proprietary cutting screen geometry, developed using Vogelsang’s in-house software, ensures efficient size reduction and smooth operation. Asymmetric blade rotors and movable cutting blades maintain continuous contact with the cutting screen, enabling reliable processing of even the toughest fibrous materials, such as industrial fibers, grass, and hair.

The integrated heavy material separator safely collects foreign objects like stones and metals, preventing damage to pumps, pipes, and other downstream equipment while ensuring durability and uninterrupted operation. The RotaCut's compact floor plan enables versatile installation, efficient processing and multifunctionality. Additionally, the QuickService design allows for user-friendly maintenance, permitting on-site replacement of cutting tools without removing the cutter head, minimizing downtime.

The RotaCut delivers targeted benefits for wastewater management. It offers comprehensive protection and cost-effective operation, ensuring consistent particle size for sludge treatment, transfer, and dewatering processes. The integrated heavy material separator minimizes operational disruptions and extends equipment lifespan. Additionally, customizable options, such as the Automatic Cut Control (ACC), optimize cutting pressure and deliver exceptional performance.
