Ink dispensing system PICCOLO

with volumetric pumpautomatic

The Inkmaker PICCOLO is an automatic dispensing system, conceptualised to offer an affordable solution for users with moderate to high output requirements. Fully automatic and easy to operate it requires minimal input. The operator can produce the required formulas in few simple steps and with perfect accuracy. The CROMA can accommodate a maximum of 21 x DN18, high precision, multi stage dispensing valves. Valves are placed in a circle; the minimum required Ø of the dispensing container is 310 mm. The number of valves mounted on each equipment is based on actual customer’s requirements. The PICCOLO can handle both water based as well as solvent-based products (ATEX or IEC-EX - version). Compact and with a limited footprint, the PICCOLO comes in different layouts based on the available area. The system is operated though a computer using Inkmaker “Maestro®” software. Scale tare is automatically set by the computer. A weigh summary sheet is printed for each batch showing the exact batch information. The user can display or print several reports, including: dispensed formulas, job costing, production history, stock availability, etc. Production traceability is simplified with the use of a bar-code system c/w bar-code reader and bar-code label printer. Pneumatic pumps deliver the base components to the dispensing head. Components can be stocked in 200 L drums or in other type of containers of different size and capacity. - Extremely easy to operate with user friendly interface which can be linked with the most common ERP and MRP programmes - Easy interface with any brand of spectrophotometer - Consistent formula reproduction insuring correct product repeatability
