Receive
- After the coupling, the resin’s condition is yours
- A rough unload adds fines and moisture before anything else can
- Ours unloads it clean, dry, and without damage

Resin drying, conveying, blending & complete systems
Up to 70% of your costs are resin.
Our only business is protecting and enhancing it, from the initial delivery to the throat.

Is your resin leaking profit?
- Every one of these started upstream.

What we make
Wherever your resin starts — railcar, truck, silo, bag, or Gaylord — this is where it leaks, and what we make to stop it.
02
Store
- Silos breathe humid air every time the temperature swings
- Wet material at the wall stops matching the core
- Ours keeps the air inside dry, however long it sits
Silo
03
Convey
- Every transfer is friction
- Elbows shed fines, high line speeds make angel hair
- Ours controls velocity so pellets arrive whole

04
Clean
- Fines and streamers don’t leave on their own
- Dust at the machine means black specks in the part
- Ours pulls it out before the resin is blended or dried
Cyclone dust collector
05
Blend
- Virgin, regrind, color, and additives meet here by recipe
- An off-spec blend wastes the most expensive part of it
- Ours holds the recipe to tolerance and shows you the weight
Gravimetric blender

06
Dry
- Under-dried resin makes defective parts
- Over-dried resin makes structurally compromised ones
- Ours dries to a number, not a timer

To the throat
- This is where it stops being resin and starts being your part.
- Delivered dry, blended to your recipe, and protected the whole way —
- because getting resin to the throat is easy.
- Getting it there ready is the job.
Machine throat
Schematic endpoint
- Every stage above stands on its own, or connects into one plant-wide system.
- Buy a single unit or the whole thing. We build both.
One unit or the whole plant — have it your way.
Buy a single unit. Or let us design, build, and install the whole path.
- Specialists in every stage that touches your resin, from delivery to the throat.
- Our engineers visit your site, design the piping and controls that connect it all, and manage it end to end.
- When a system needs mold-temperature controllers, chillers, or granulators,
- we bring in the best in each category — the specialists who make nothing else — to your spec.

Proof
Every claim we publish starts here.
- The Resin Proving Ground is Novatec’s working laboratory in Baltimore —
- 4,200 square feet where dryers, conveying systems, and resins are tested before anything gets claimed in print.
- More than a thousand validation tests across ABS, PC, nylon, PBT, and PET.

People came here this week because…
“…their parts came out splayed and the dewpoint read fine.”
Dewpoint Is a Dryer Output, Not a Resin Readiness Score“…nobody could tell them what condition their resin was in when it arrived.”
Incoming Moisture: The Number Nobody Measures“…the same recipe that worked in February was making scrap in August.”

- After the sale, the resin is still moving.
- Filters, desiccant, wear in the conveying line, a dryer that drifted back to being a timer —
- service is how the chain doesn’t break two years in.
- Genuine parts and 24/7 U.S.-based support, fast.

Common questions
Questions we hear most.
Q·01Can I buy just one dryer or one pump?
Can I buy just one dryer or one pump?
- Absolutely. Most of what we sell is single equipment.
- Buy one unit or build a whole plant — same expertise either way.
Q·02Not sure which model you need?
Not sure which model you need?
- Tell us your resin, your throughput, and your process.
- We’ll point you to the right fit.
Q·03Where is it built and supported?
Where is it built and supported?
- Engineered, manufactured, and supported in the U.S.
Q·04Can you integrate with equipment we already have?
Can you integrate with equipment we already have?
- Yes. We’re often brought in to work around what’s already on your floor.
Q·05What if something fails?
What if something fails?
- One number, one team.
- No vendor-to-vendor finger-pointing.
- Everybody else is looking at a share of your wallet.
- We’re looking after your pellet.
