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 Allen-Bradley 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
• 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
• Complete inventory and material usage information
• Individual component weigh hoppers
