Colortronic's Colorblend - Precision Material Dosing at its Finest

Colortronic's Colorblend M, is a synchronized, digital dosing system designed to precisely dose plastic additives (either in pellet or powder form) on any plastics processing machine. At Plastec Midwest, Colortronic will have the Colorblend on display September 25-27 at booth number 2560.

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 the 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.

The Colorblend M is mounted directly in the throat of the processing machine. There are various sizes and adapters to accommodate machine sizes and hopper loader configurations.

Colortronic North America Inc., most notably known for their industry leading blenders and feeders, is supported by a dedicated service team available for customers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
