The Plasticolor 2000 GR
Is a single gravimetric feeder. The unit accurately feeds free flowing color and additives at the throat of extrusion, blow molding and injection molding machines.
The system incorporates a special algorithm that filters out vibrations and movement from mold clamping making it suitable for use on injection molding machines.
Plasticolor 2000 GR utilizes a stepper motor providing high resolution of speed control from 0.3 rpm to 225 rpm. Isolated 10/100 Ethernet makes possible the retrieval of production information. An integrated venturi loader is included with the system.
Features:
Easy Setup
- Injection molding - Just enter the shot size and % of additive you want to add. Start the feeder and it will automatically adjust itself to the machine cycle.
- Extrusion - Enter the max output of your production machine and the % of additive you want to add. The feeder will automatically follow your extruder speed and adjust accordingly.

GRAVIBELT
Is a single gravimetric beltfeeder. The unit accurately feeds free flowing color and additives at the throat of extrusion, blow molding and injection molding machines. The system incorporates a special algorithm that filters out vibrations and movement from mold clamping making it suitable for use on injection molding machines. The Gravibelt offers a wide dynamic feed range under one setup. With a feed rate from 1 oz to 80 lbs/hr for pellets and 0.5 oz to 30 lbs/hr for micro pellets. Isolated 10/100 Ethernet makes possible the retrieval of production information. An integrated venturi loader is included with the system.
