Introduction The OptiMix gravimetric batch blender series accommodates up to 12 material components and supports throughputs up to 5,000 kg/hr. Its patented mixing system and slide-gate technology create a cramming action at the throat to improve handling of difficult regrind materials, enabling higher regrind ratios and increased throughput. Control features include a 7-inch high-resolution touchscreen with prompts, an incident log, one-touch weight calibration and an auto test for system verification.
Benefits - Reduced material consumption through precise dosing
