Used Nelmor Equipment Sold by Meadoworks

Nelmor Co., Inc. was founded in North Uxbridge, Massachusetts, where it built a decades-long reputation as a dedicated manufacturer of size reduction equipment for the plastics processing industry. Corporate records trace the company's Massachusetts roots to the 1950s, with Nelmor Co., Inc. formally incorporated in Massachusetts in 1978 and operating for well over 50 years as an independent brand before being acquired by Application Engineering Co. (AEC) and continuing under the AEC Nelmor name.

Nelmor's core product line centers on plastic granulators engineered for a wide range of throughput requirements and installation configurations. The G series granulators — including models such as the G1012, G1215, G1620, and MV1812 — cover beside-the-press and central granulator applications, while the RG series (open-rotor designs like the RG-1620) targets higher-volume and more demanding regrind tasks. Configurations span small beside-the-press units processing just a few hundred pounds per hour up to heavy-duty central granulators with large cutting chambers, hydraulic clam-shell access, and motors reaching 100 HP or more. The Marathon Series beside-the-press granulator, introduced under the AEC Nelmor banner, processes from 5 to over 450 lb/hr and features a side-entry cleanout door for fast material changeovers.

Nelmor granulators serve a broad cross-section of plastics processing industries. Injection molders rely on beside-the-press and below-the-press units for in-line sprue and runner reclaim, while thermoforming and sheet manufacturing operations use central and feed-roll-equipped models to reclaim trim and skeletal scrap. Blow molding, extrusion, and plastics recycling facilities round out the end-market base, making Nelmor equipment a fixture across packaging, consumer goods, automotive components, and general plastics manufacturing.

Buyers seeking used Nelmor granulators consistently cite the machines' robust steel construction, long service life, and the wide availability of replacement knives, screens, and wear parts from both OEM and aftermarket suppliers. The straightforward mechanical design of the G and RG series makes maintenance accessible and keeps refurbishment costs predictable, which supports strong resale values. For processors looking to add reliable size reduction capacity without the lead times or capital outlay of new equipment, used Nelmor granulators remain a practical and cost-effective choice.
