ACCUMETER® BLENDER
The AccuMeter ® Series is designed to blend a wide
range of materials in continuous extrusion applications,
and offers the most homogenous blend available
compared to batch type blenders, feeders or mixers.
The feeders are mounted on precision load cells,
continuously weighing the output of each component.
The material flow is constantly monitored; any
changes in properties, i.e. bulk density, pellet size,
etc. are compensated for, and have no affect on the
accuracy of the blended material. The AccuMeter ®
Series mass flow weigh hopper learns the extruder
rate, continuously sending the data to the AllenBradley control system. The material feed rates
automatically adjust to match the extruder rate in
order to maintain a consistent blend into the extruder
throat. The system can be set up to flood feed or
starve feed, and can accommodate most extrusion
processes.
• Automatically adjusts individual feeders to match
the extruder rate at the exact ratio required
• Upper material refill hoppers with refill valves
• Individual component weigh hoppers
• Lower mass flow weigh hopper assembly
• Allen-Bradley COMPACTLOGIX™ programmable
controller
• PanelView Plus 1000 CE 10.5 in. color touch-screen
• PWM-DC or inverter duty AC motors, depending
on model provides precision metering with wider
recipe ranges
• Precision 0.02% analog or 0.0001% digital load
cells, depending on model, provide accurate
weight information
• Storage book for up to 50 recipes
• Feeder trending
• Full diagnostics
• Complete inventory and material usage information
• Alarm outputs
• 115/1/60, 230/1/60 or 460/3/60 supply
voltage (varies by model). Other voltages available.
