The invention relates to an apparatus for granulating hot cut, in particular thermoplastic resin material, the material strands melted by an extruder being knocked off into granule pellets in a granulating housing (1) by rotating knives (11) disposed on a shaft (9) driven by way of a motor (13), the granule pellets being picked up by a cooling medium flowing in the granulating housing (1), cooled and discharged out of the granulating housing (1), characterized in that a flow opening (17) establishing a continuous fluid connection between the inside of the granulating housing (1) and the outside environment is designed between the shaft (9) and the region of the granulating housing (1) in which the shaft (9) penetrates the granulating housing (1).
Apparatus for hot cut granulation, in particular of thermoplastic resin material, wherein the material strands melted in an extruder are knocked off into granulate particles in a granulating housing (1) by rotating knifes (11) that are disposed on a shaft (9) driven by a motor (13), wherein the granulate particles are picked up, cooled, and discharged from the granulating housing (1) by a cooling medium flowing in the granulating housing (1), characterized in that between the shaft (9) and that area of the granulating housing (1) in which the shaft (9) penetrates the granulating housing (1) a flow-through opening (17) is implemented that establishes a fluid connection between the interior of the granulating housing (1) and the outer environment.
