Coperion K-Tron adds twin-screw feeder to line
NPE Booth W1181
ProRate Plus feeders These Coperion K-Tron continuous gravimetric feeders have been designed to be robust, cost-effective and easy to use for simple feeding applications.
What’s new? The ProRate Plus-MT feeder, which adds a twin-screw model to the line. It is equipped with a horizontal agitator that ensures both screws are always optimally filled with material, making it an ideal choice for difficult-to-handle powder additives such as talc, calcium carbonate or carbon black. At NPE, this feeder will be on display in the booth of Schenck Process, Darmstadt, Germany.
Benefits Quick return on investment. The ProRate Plus line was designed specifically for the plastics processing industry and offers a solid price-performance ratio and fast delivery times. The Plus-MT’s twin-screw technology reduces pulsations, and the screws have a self-cleaning effect. Thanks to its steep hopper walls, the feeder is able to feed poorly flowing bulk solids reliably without an additional vertical agitator.
