GRAVITROL Process Control Corp. has upgraded this gravimetric control system for maintaining consistent extruder output by weight. The controls can include a variety of components, such as the EXG central supervisory computer and operator station, EXB2 touch-screen control and HGB2 weigh hopper assembly.
WHAT'S NEW? The EXB2 touch screen control interface now can be equipped with a line-speed module for controlling and monitoring line speed by length, weight-per-running length, average thickness and inside tube diameter. It can monitor or control an extruder and optional additive feeder.
BENEFITS Reduced material usage and scrap, quicker startup and changeover and a more reliable product.
