DOSIMAX and GRAVIMAX Blenders

Many applications for the processing of additives and colors require small and repeatable material additions within tight tolerances. The dosing cylinder guarantees a uniform and repeatable flow throughout a wide range of applications.

Because of the constant speed of rotation, the dosing cylinder is actuated by a stepping motor. The specific design guarantees that the master batch is blended uniformly and extremely precisely. The avoidance of any pulsing during blending, provides maximum control of the process and the end product.

GRAVIMAX Gravimetric Dosing

Microblender

• All Materials Metered by Weight
  - Accuracy is constantly monitored.
  - Automatic compensation for material variations.
• Advanced Dispense Technology
  - Color and additive is held to within 1/10 of 1% of requested ratio.
  - New Micro-PulseTM dispense capability for minor ingredient is 3 to 4 pellets per dose.
• Very Simple Operation
  - Fill hoppers with material, regrind, natural, color and additive.
  - Set thumbwheel switches for percentages desired.
  - Turn controller on.
  - The unit now operates automatically, adding components in the proper
  percentages. If material runs out, an alarm will sound.
• Immune to Vibration
  - Load cell readings that have been compromised by machine shock or
  vibration are detected and disregarded.
  - Blenders may be mounted directly on the process machine.
   

GRAVIMAX Gravimetric Dosing Control

Controls are available with two types of software. Four component software is designed for a conventional mix of natural, regrind, and up to two additives including color. Twelve component software allows complete flexibility for any conceivable blend.

• Two level password access.
• Lock-in settings.
• Place upper limits on settings.
• Track and total material usage.
• Print reports
  to verify accuracy and/or document blend content.
• 20 Characters (two line) display.
  for optimal display of parameters and functions.
• Direct Setting of Percentages;
• No Calculations
  Enter setttings for percentage of color, additive and regrind on the thumbwheel switches and the system does the rest.
• Automatic
• Calibration
  Every batch is followed by correction routine that continuously hunts toward perfect dispense weights.
