GRAVIMETRIC ADDITIVE FEEDERS - MEDLINE® GRAVIMETRIC FEEDING; CALIBRATED TO MEDICAL ISO STANDARDS Optimize your feeding process with the Conair MedLine® TrueFeed gravimetric feeder. Units are simple to install and use, extremely accurate and economical. These color and additive feeders deliver accurate feeding rates on the basis of continuous loss-in-weight metering technology with closed-loop control of the feeding speed. This MedLine version of Conair’s popular TF Feeders is calibrated to ISO standards and features RAL 9003 paint. Model TF01AA with handfill hopper lid The MedLine TrueFeed can be used in injection molding, extrusion and blow molding processes. All models operate with the same bilingual, user-friendly touch screen control. MEDICAL PRECISION; FAST CHANGES; CLEANROOM READY Unlike volumetric feeders the TrueFeed gravimetric feeders from Conair are self-calibrating, adjusting automatically for changes in material type, bulk density or pellet geometry. The consistency of this feeder ensures that every pellet counts. Absolutely no material waste. Unique dispensing cylinder eliminates pulsing outputs of auger and pocket type feeders. I Increased productivity The TrueFeed does not require time-consuming color calibration when materials are changed. Eliminates machine downtime associated with conventional volumetric feeders. MedLine TrueFeed feeders feature RAL 9003 paint and stainless material surfaces. I Each feeder is equipped with a throat adapter that fits between the machine hopper and the throat. The feeder installs easily to the adapter allowing additives to be metered by the dispensing cylinder into the flow of material as it passes through the adapter. Metering and feeding additives at the throat result in even greater savings in material inventory and colorant over traditional pre-colored, centrally blended materials or imprecise volumetric technologies. Reduce your material costs Unbeatable accuracy to 1/2 of 1% The dispensing cylinder is driven by a stepper motor for consistent speed. The design ensures that the colorant is dispensed evenly, extremely accurately, and without any pulsation from the cylinder into the plastic, giving you maximum control of the process and the end product. Simple to use touch screen Injection molders, simply set the additive percentage, enter the shot weight, screw recovery time and press start. For extrusion processes the unit can be run open-loop or slaved to the extruder (extrusion tracking). The control face is chemical resistant and can be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol

GRAVIMETRIC ADDITIVE FEEDERS - MEDLINE® F E AT U R E S In control of your expensive colorant and additives. The Conair dispensing cylinder gives you outstanding control of the feeding process. The consistent feeding of this unit allows the actual setpoint to be lowered, ensuring a substantially faster return on your investment. Find your additional profits here! The graph compares the Conair Dispensing Cylinder to an auger. An auger dispensing device will give an irregular output because of the pulsations created by the auger, which in turn, causes the colorant to be dispensed irregularly...
