Feeding system for composite film

Few extruded products are as complex as films. The demand for special properties of thin films in different markets, especially the possibility of producing "smart" films, has made its complexity continue to develop. Gravity measuring feeder igs D12 provides a solution. It increases the number of process components and potential levels.

Igs D12 represents the maximum amount of ingredients that can be added through the extruder. In the case of film extrusion, the main component is in a free-fall state, and igs D12 can mix up to 12 materials on one extruder. In a co-extrusion process, this will be equivalent to controlling 10 layers and 30 ingredients.

The film manufacturer's R&D department will benefit from the hope that this feeder station will bring to the processing of complex product features. The new scale model is compatible with existing thickness and width measurement systems and cooling rings. As usual, the IGs D12 can be combined with the control and visualization system saveomat to form a complete automation system.
