Extrusion 2-2020

Gramixo is easy to use for both the production, thanks to the quick discharge system of hoppers that allows a quick produc- tion change avoiding machine downtime, and for the cleaning, as it is equipped with inclined and removable mixing chamber, allowing the total discharge and easy maintenance. The wireless control with object-oriented interface is also super easy, as it includes connection to Ethernet, USB, RS485 and MOWIS, the Moretto’s innovative supervising system. DPK is a compact precise loss-in-weight dosing system, suitable for the dosing of small amounts of masterbatch or additives. The technology of the load cells and the control algorithm, make DPK reaching dosing accuracy up to ± 0.3%. The master- batch or additive to be dosed is contained in a hopper built in a specific transparent resistant acrylic material, free from electro- static charges, which makes immediately visible the content material and the level of load avoiding the stop of material on the hopper walls. The hopper is easily removable without the use of tools and, together with the intelligent storage and re- cognition system of the masterbatches alongside the machine, assure an easy and immediate recipe change. Moretto’s team will be available at the show, to meet custom- ers and explain them how the company’s engineered solutions work helping customers in more than 60 countries to realize si- gnificant energy consumption savings and system optimization for all their automation and process requirements. 45 Extrusion 2/2020 DBK GRAMIXO continuous loss-in-weight batch blender Since 1980 Moretto S.p.A. designs and manufactures highly competitive machinery, original and low ener- gy consumption systems for injection, extrusion and PET processing.
