MINIBLEND V hybrid

The mixing cruciform is made of stainless steel. It separates the main material from the additives until they meet just above the throat of the processing machine. They then flow together, resulting in a homogeneous mix with no material separation.

Synchronous dosing provides excellent recipe accuracy and reproducibility which can be traced at any time.

The mounting flange is designed so that it can easily be mounted on different sized feed throats without the need for drilling.

There are four different sizes of wear-resistant dosing screws available and they can be removed without the use of tools. The screws are inclined at an angle for a constant dosing flow insensitive to vibration. This gives you greater accuracy because machine movements have no effect on the dosing process and material slip on the screw is eliminated.

The dosing disc with the MINIBLEND V hybrid gives you real volume dosing which guarantees very high dosing accuracy – even for very small dosing quantities. The discs are available in three different sizes (wear-resistant design optional).

The dosing motors are swivel mounted and can be removed without tools. The motors are brushless which makes them maintenance-free.

To calibrate the screw dosing module, you can easily withdraw the dosing module by loosening two star grips in order to collect and weigh the additive sample. For the dosing discs, calibration is conducted using a calibration module. This allows the additive to be collected and measured easily. This means you save time and there is no material spillage.

Cleaning and material changeovers are fast and require no tools. The quick-change system, a removable supply hopper, a swivel mounted motor, and a dosing screw with a quick release connection, makes the unit easy to operate and saves you valuable time. The complete dosing module can be used as a colour cassette, allowing you fast colour changes without any previous cleaning.

For automatic filling of the additive supply hopper of the MINIBLEND V hybrid you can use a compressed air loader. The loader can be installed by replacing the supply hopper lid. With METRO VL, a level sensor in the hopper signals the need for material and ensures that the hopper never runs empty. 

The modern microprocessor control comes with 16 user interface languages. It is suitable for one or two dosing modules and has a user-friendly additive calibration wizard.
