What is a Gravimetric blender? ![]() Gravimetric blender a mechanical device that integrates weighing, metering and mixing functions, all use PLC controllers and advanced batching algorithms to ensure the high quality and comprehensive technical characteristics of this series of products, so that the products have excellent performance, stable operation, excellent production performance, automatic alarm and error correction function, safe and reliable comprehensive technical characteristics. Technology to solve manual weighing errors and uneven mixing in production. Composition of Gravimetric blender: The main components of the Gravimetric blender include hoppers, racks, weighing instruments, mixing barrels, PLC consoles, electric boxes, motors and other components. Gravimetric batch blender running: When the raw materials are transported to each hopper, each hopper is equipped with a weighing instrument. When each raw material enters the mixing tank, the weighing instrument will weigh and measure the raw materials according to the proportion set on the control platform. When the weight of the weighing instrument matches the proportional parameter set by the PLC console, the valve under the hopper opens and then enters the mixing tank for raw material processing. High-speed impact and dispersion can achieve rapid mixing, dispersion and refinement of functional and efficient equipment. After reaching a uniform mixing time, the PLC control program will automatically open the material valve under the mixing barrel and automatically output the mixture at the speed set by the PLC console. Gravimetric batch blender type: Loss in weight This type of gravimetric blender measures the "loss in weight" from two or more hoppers using a load cell under each hopper. Material is usually dispensed from the hoppers using a screw conveyor. All materials are dispensed together and the rate of dosing from each hopper is controlled to ensure the correct blend is achieved. Gain in weight (sometimes called a batch blender) A gain in weight gravimetric blender has two or more hoppers arranged above a weigh-pan. These hoppers contain the components which are to be mixed, at the base of each hopper there is a valve to control the dispensing of material from the component hopper into the weigh-pan. The components are dispensed one at a time into the weigh pan until the target or batch weight is reached. Once the batch has been weighed out the contents of the weigh-pan are dispensed into a mixing chamber where they are blended. The resulting mixture exits the base of the mixing chamber into the processing machine. A typical application of a gravimetric blender would be mixing virgin plastic granules, recycled plastic, and masterbatch (an additive used to colour plastics) togethe Especially in the medical and environmental protection industries, the machinery will fully adopt food stainless steel materials and fully enclosed feeding and discharging to avoid external pollution.[More Gravimetric blender information] |

![]() |
This is a gravimetric blender for mixing plastic particles and masterbatch particles. It can be combined into multiple hoppers at the same time to realize automatic metering and stirring of more than 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 kinds of raw materials; to obtain a new type of mixed raw materials. Realize the mixed raw materials required for factory production. It is controlled by PLC and can be customized according to the company's requirements. Counting system; the gravimetric accuracy of the system can reach particles. Using spiral stirring, the blending speed and output speed can be controlled. [More Gravimetric blender information] |
![]() Mainly used in injection molding and extrusion industries, but also in the ceramic industry. For plastic particles or masterbatch particles, the weighing system is accurate and even mixing, but it is not suitable for weighing and mixing powdered materials. |
![]() |
This is a twin screw gravimetric blender. It can combine one,two,three,four,five,six,or more plastic particles and master batches at the same time, automatically measure and automatically blending these raw materials. Obtain a uniformly mixed mixture for production. In the mixing, each system is air-tight. 304 food steel is used to reduce the pollution of raw materials or workshops, and the weighing accuracy of the system is higher. It adopts two-way spiral stirring, the stirring speed is fast, and the PLC controls the stirring speed and output speed. customizable

This is a gravimetric blender directly connected to the injection molding machine. It can weigh 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or more plastic particles and master batches at the same time for automatic measurement and automatic mixing. It can be Closed or semi-closed, with higher weighing accuracy, double spiral or single spiral stirring can be used, PLC controls the stirring speed and output speed, production needs to be customized, installation is simpler, and space saving [More Gravimetric blender information] |
![]() It is mainly used in the injection molding industry and the standard "4.0" automated production system. It can automatically weigh, measure and mix plastic granular materials (such as PET, PC, master batches and other plastic raw materials). Because it is a double mixing pair, it can also weigh and mix micro-particles, thus saving labor and electricity. |

![]() Application of gravimetric blender in injection molding industry. The multi-powder meter or particle meter can better solve the batching problem. When mixing, we use a special mixing barrel to mix plastic particles or plastic powder. Corresponding sealing systems have been developed to ensure that the workshop and equipment are not contaminated by dust. Extend the service life of the gravimetric blender, workshop environment and product quality. |

gravimetric blender technology and installation solutions |
Technology and installation solutions: How to let the gravimetric blender solve the problem for the enterprise is the key. Energy saving, environmental protection, time saving, automation and intelligence, the installation of Gravimetric blenders for enterprises will bring long-term value to enterprises. This is why we have been developing gravimetric mixers and gravimetric mixers. Therefore, we tested many ways to change this technology. For example, according to the different raw materials, we will use a Gravimetric blender for weight reduction, weighing, liquid and other measurement methods. The mixing is also based on the testing of various raw materials; in the mixing screw and double blades, the mixing is more uniform, and the particles and micro particles are evenly mixed, and the density characteristics of the raw materials are used to formulate corresponding technical solutions! We have our own R&D capabilities, manufacturers and developers, and have patents for Gravimetric blenders and software program certificates. Thousands of successful cases, including Toyota, Honda, Foxconn and other well-known companies, only technology + installation can better formulate corresponding solutions, so we also have higher technical requirements for installation to save company funds and company space ,In production, this is a Gravimetric blender, which can mix multiple raw materials, and automatically provide the blended raw materials to multiple machines at the same time according to the company's needs. This requires a good solution to complete. For example, factory size and production materials. Only through the displacement, conveying distance, energy consumption and other related data of the machine, we can provide the corresponding gravity model and installation rule design of the gravity mixer, so as to reasonably save more funds and space occupied. And provide the company with better solutions to save money, save company space, energy saving, environmental protection, time saving, labor saving, automation, intelligence and solutions with long-term value.
