The precise dosing of additives is accomplished using a correctly sized dosing disc in combination with a special DC drive motor and our easy to operate control. This combination allows for additives to be dosed in synch with the processing machine and the flow of the main component material. When the additive and main material hit the processing screw, they will be mixed at exactly the right proportion, according to your inputted recipe. The Colorblend M controllers are connected to the process machine and monitor the screw recovery time for injection, injection blow molding and the screw speed of an extruder. Colortronic guarantees delivery of a homogeneous mix every time without risk of de-mixing even with the use of micro-batch (or micro pellets).

Our design makes material changeover almost effortless. Simply lift two quick disconnects and list off the additive station. By the use of a spare station, changeover is immediate. If you elect not to purchase a spare station, clean up and material change occurs off the machine in minutes, reducing downtime and risk of injury. Additives may also be automatically loaded by the use of one of Colortronic's hopper loaders.
