Plastic pellet dosing dispenser AF1000 series

gravimetricfor injection molding machinesfor the food industry

AF1000 features a compact, gravimetric additive feeder that allows it to accurately meter additives as well as track material usage. The AF1000 is designed to work in all molding and extrusion applications for pelletized material. Consistent, accurate operation and repeatability, even at very low output rates. If there is a deviation from set additive weight, the AF1000 will automatically self-adjust to ensure proper measurements. Standard Features • 3 liter (oil cu. ft.) stainless steel weigh hopper • Stainless steel metering screw (medium #2 as standard) • Simple and easy to use operation with automatic calibration • Swing out cleanout door • Connection to injection signal in addition to recovery signal • Powerful DC motor • User-friendly graphic display • Advanced feed-rate algorithm • Online additive flow rate control in % or kg/hr (for extruders) • Integrated TCP/IP card that enables communications for injection molding models • Gravimetric/volumetric mode switch Optional Features • Integrated automatic venturi loader • 0-10 VDC extruder tracking controls • Large weigh hopper in lieu of standard • 230/1/50 or 230/1/60 supply voltage • Specialized software control for extrusion blow-molding applications
