Product catalog summary
SPECTROPLUS and SPECTROFLEX Dosing and Mixing Systems Overview
Introduction: The SPECTROPLUS and SPECTROFLEX systems are advanced dosing and mixing units designed for a wide range of applications in the extrusion and compounding sectors. These systems are modular, allowing for customization to meet diverse dosing requirements, including gravimetric and volumetric processes.
Key Features:
  • Modularity: Both systems feature a modular design, enabling easy adaptation and expansion with interchangeable dosing screws and modules for different materials such as granulates, powders, liquids, and flakes.
  • Interchangeable Components: Quick and tool-free exchange of dosing screws and modules reduces downtime and allows for flexible material changes.
  • CAN Motors: The systems use 24 V CAN motors that are maintenance-free and adaptable to global voltage standards.
  • Digital Load Cell System: Utilizes high-quality strain gauge load cells with digital transducer electronics for precise and error-free signal transmission.
  • SPECTROnet Control: A control system that manages up to 8 dosing modules, featuring a touchscreen interface for easy configuration and process tailoring.
Technical Specifications:
  • Electrics: Rated voltage of 400/50-60 V/Hz, with a control voltage of 24 VDC and protection type IP 54.
  • Throughput Capacities: Various modules offer different throughput rates depending on the material type and bulk density.
  • Dimensions: The systems are available in single and multiple frame configurations, with specific dimensions for each module type.
SPECTROFLEX Specific Features:
  • Massage Rollers: Elliptical massage rollers replace mechanical agitators, reducing wear and allowing for the dosing of fragile materials.
  • Control Options: VOLUnet SF and GRAVInet SF controls offer solutions for volumetric and gravimetric dosing, respectively, with Ethernet connectivity for network integration.
Benefits:
  • High dosing accuracy and consistency.
  • Easy operation and minimal downtime.
  • Compact design saves space and facilitates quick installation.
  • Efficient material changes and cleaning processes.
Conclusion: The SPECTROPLUS and SPECTROFLEX systems provide versatile and efficient solutions for dosing and mixing in industrial applications, with a focus on modularity, precision, and ease of use.

SPECTROPLUS Easy and quick installation The installation is not only simple, but also saves space due to its compact design. Using simple adapters, the SPECTROPLUS can be mounted directly on the material in-take of the extruder or on a customerspecific mezzanine. The overall height has been noticeably reduced – and that with the same throughput rate. Liquid dosing In addition to dosing modules for solids, gravimetric supply hoppers with dosing pumps for liquids can also be used. Depending on the application, either gear dosing pumps for lubricating fluids or piston diaphragm pumps for non-lubricating...
