TSM’s OPTIX Gravimetric Batch Blender Loss-in-Weight technology, has been designed exclusively for extrusion control. All the fundamental capabilities are enhanced in this new range and packaged in a sleek, robust, user-friendly design. But most importantly, essential business metrics relating to material usage, energy usage, downtime analysis and OEE (Operational Equipment Efficiency) are available across single or multiple lines and factories. In line with growing demand for our OPTIX range, we have released the new OPTIX 100 series which can deliver up to 100 Kilos (220 lbs.) per hour for continuous machine direction control of extrusion processes. This expansion allows TSM to offer a very compact unit ideal for multi-layer co-ex applications. TSMs patented reverse auger technology is combined with ultra-fast, responsive throughput measurements for real-time control. A new control algorithm allows performance to be maintained at lower set-points. The unique mechanical design delivers a small footprint, making it ideal for either new multi-layer extrusion lines or retrofit installations with 4 or 6 Material Components as options. • High Accuracy Dispensing up to 0.01% of Batch • Instantaneous Response to Process Disturbances • Superior Weighing & Mixing with Fast Throughput Measurement • Enhanced Closure Designs – New catches & Door Frame • New Sight Glass on Bins • Enhanced Connectivity for Data Access – Insight Ready • New Control Algorithm for faster Accurate Control Response • Intuitive Operator Functionality • Comprehensive Report/Alarm Management • Built-in Trending & Data History Management • Extrusion Yield Control • Integrated Material Handing
