Microblend

Microblend is a volumetric colouring system for masterbatches and is typically employed in conjunction with injection moulding machines with clamping forces of up to 100 t.

Rugged, modular construction

Microblend systems distinguish themselves through their extremely compact design and ease of operation. The drive unit, for example, can simply be moved to the side when the system needs to be cleaned.

The newly developed control system is easy to operate and enables the required settings to be entered fast and effortlessly. The control system can also be set-up separately from the system, i.e. in the most convenient place possible.

Hoppers are made of polished stainless steel
Screw and jacket tube are made of stainless steel
Colour changes without tools
Drive unit can be opened, allowing the screw to be removed and cleaned easily and quickly
