The C-Flex Single and Twin Screw Flexible Walled Feeder is designed to offer the greatest flexibility in flexible-walled feeder design and construction. C-Flex is ideally suited for dosing powders, pellets, granulates, regrinds, fibers, and flakes in both continuous and batching processes.

Colortronic's unique, removable flexible hopper provides two huge advantages over traditional feeder designs. Firstly, the quick exchange hopper enables the user to clean and change materials in less than one minute. Secondly, single and twin screw hoppers are interchangeable, allowing the user to configure the feeder for nearly any type of material in a matter of minutes.

In addition to high flexibility, high performance is assured since consistent screw fill is maintained and bridging eliminated through the use of a flexible polyurethane hopper that is activated by friction-free massaging rolls. The massage rolls are activated using a separate drive. The C-Flex can be integrated into both gravimetric and volumetric systems. Its modular design enables the user to upgrade the system easily and cost effectively.

• Quick exchange hoppers remove from rear without the use of tools
• Three exchangeable hoppers available
• Extension hoppers do not require disassembly to remove the feed hopper
• Separate drive operates friction-free massage rolls independent of screw speed
• Over 48 massage rolls setting can be configured in the field to optimize feeding
• Stainless steel construction eliminates contamination and ensures maintenance free operation
