What to Consider When Buying Used Industrial Equipment
When purchasing used industrial equipment, thoroughly evaluate the machine's condition, maintenance history, and remaining useful life. Request documentation including service records, calibration certificates, and any known issues. Inspect the equipment in person when possible — look for signs of wear, leaks, unusual noises, and overall maintenance quality. Check that safety systems are intact and functional.
Consider the total cost of ownership beyond the purchase price: rigging, shipping, installation, reconditioning, spare parts availability, and any necessary upgrades to controls or safety systems. Used equipment typically offers 40-70% savings over new, with immediate availability versus months-long lead times for new machines.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of granulators does Meadoworks carry?
We stock beside-the-press granulators for runner regrind, central granulators for higher volumes, screenless granulators for cleaner regrind, and heavy-duty granulators for thick parts. Brands include Cumberland, Rapid, Foremost, Nelmor, and Conair with various rotor and chamber configurations.
What's the difference between granulators and shredders?
Granulators use high-speed rotary cutting to produce consistent particle sizes—ideal for clean in-house scrap and regrind. Shredders use slower, high-torque cutting for bulky items, mixed waste, and contaminated materials. Many recycling operations use shredders for initial size reduction followed by granulators for final sizing.
Can Meadoworks help set up a plastics recycling operation?
Yes, we can help source granulators, shredders, wash systems, dryers, and pelletizers for recycling operations. Contact us with your material types, throughput requirements, and end-product specifications and we'll help identify appropriate equipment.
