Product Spotlight: Gravimetric Continuous Blenders
Leave a CommentToday’s product spotlight will focus on our line of gravimetric continuous blenders. The X and XU Series 2 Gravimetric Blenders offer unsurpassed blend accuracy and blend homogeneity in a wide range of configurations to meet the needs of any application.
For extruder throat-mounted applications, the X2 comes equipped with an integral downcomer to preserve the blended material all the way to the extruder without demixing. For mezzanine or off-line mounting, the blender does not include the downcomer and is designed to work with a number of different options for storing the blended material prior to it’s use.
Operation: The operator enters the desired blend recipe at the operator station. All ingredients are simultaneously metered in the correct blend ratios by inclined augers from individual weighed material hoppers. The ingredients flow through a cascade chamber which produces the best blend homogeneity.
The XU Series 2 Continuous Gravimetric Powder Blender incorporates the PF Series powder feeder to allow gravimetric blending of non-free-flowing powder materials with free-flowing powder and pellet materials. The powder feeders allow rates as low as 0.2PPH and as high as 6,000PPH.
