It utilis es the patented TSM slide valve design and the patented reverse-flight auger mixing technology. This combination provides superior accuracies, blend ratios and mixing homogeneity that is not achievable by competitive systems. All components are blended by weight based on the preset blend ratios on the microprocessor cont roller. Each component is metered separately into a single weigh hopper, which measures and controls their rate. With special weigh hopper and hopper bin agitators, this blender will assist with the smooth flow of the flake materials.
