New blender added to the range

Process Control Corporation, a supplier of gravimetric blending equipment, continues to expand its series of low cost, highly accurate line of gravimetric batch blenders with the addition of an 18kg blender. New cable to Blolite+ Brand-Rex Ltd, UK, designs, develops and manufactures copper and fibre cabling systems for communications and extreme environment applications. The company has launched its new Blolite+ MicroCable. The new microduct cable is an extension to the existing Blolite+ product range, and has been specifically designed for improved installation efficiency in pre-installed 10/8mm microducts using existing air blown installation techniques.

With an increased number of higher throughput extrusion lines being installed, especially sheet extrusion lines, PCC recognised the need for a higher rate blender. PCC engineers designed the 18kg size Guardian batch blender, available with up to 12 individual ingredient hoppers with throughput rates of more than 5,000 PPH. The blender can be configured up to 12-component multi-hopper design. Each of the individual material hoppers can run from 0-100% of the recipe. The customer does not have to dedicate low rate or high rate ingre- dients to certain hoppers. The blender can also be supplied with a regrind feeder for feeding difficult to flow flake and/or regrind type materials or a powder feeder for non-flowable powder type materials.
