Gravimetric blenders

What will it do for you?

Gravimetric Blenders automatically and precisely blend multiple components, typically Virgin, Regrind and Masterbatch for Injection and Blow Moulding applications.

Additionally, applications with more complex recipes of up to 10 different components, such as Film, Sheet and other extrusion processes will also benefit from the accuracy, simple operation, minimum setup time and low capital cost of a Gravimetric Blender.

Included in the Maguire Gravimetric Blender range is the MicroBlender; the smallest weigh scale blender in the world, that makes the benefits of Gravimetric Blending accessible and affordable to plastics processors operating small machines. The MicroBlender is capable of blending up to 4 components. All material hoppers are removable for fast and convenient material changes. The Weigh Scale Blender controller is remotely mounted providing easy access for the operator.

Features

  • Gravimetric Blenders set up in seconds – not hours
  • Unquestionable accuracy
  • These Gravimetric Blenders have proven reliability with up to 7 year warranty
  • Reports to verify blend accuracy usage and documents blend info for BSI and ISO standards
  • Automatic compensation for material variations
  • These Gravimetric Blenders are immune to vibration and suit stand alone or machine mounted applications

Advantages

  • Guaranteed to reduce your unit cost
  • Allows confident use of Masterbatch eliminating need to buy compound materials
  • Reduce material stock – buy Natural instead of small lots of multiple colours
  • Gravimetric Blenders provide negligible scrap compared to manual or volumetric blending during set up
  • Efficient use of regrind by only colouring natural
  • Gravimteric Blenders automatically compensate for changes in bulk density so no calibration required
