Minicolor V
METRO VL
Dosing and mixing unit
The demand for an excellent mixing quality and consistently accurate dosing are a must when combining additives with the virgin material at the processing machine.
The volumetric dosing and mixing unit MINICOLOR V meets and exceeds these requirements. Mounted between the machine hopper and the feed throat of the plastics processing machine it requires very little space.
A stainless steel cruciform in the mixing throat divides the free-flowing main component into two streams of material. They flow together with the simultaneously dosed additives at the feed inlet producing a homogeneous mixture.
Depending on need and requirement, screw or disc dosing units can be installed at the mixing neck. Disc dosing is ideal for translucent and opaque parts as well as for dosing very small quantities.
The additive supply hopper can be filled easily by hand or with a METRO VL Venturi hopper loader.
