GRAVIMETRIC BLENDERS – MICRON INDIA

Micron India offers gravimetric blending solutions for accurate weighing, proportioning, dosing, and blending of multiple materials. A gravimetric blender measures ingredients by weight rather than relying only on volume, helping maintain consistent formulation ratios and improve batch-to-batch accuracy.

Gravimetric blending systems can be configured for powders, granules, pellets, and other compatible materials according to the application and required production capacity.

Technical Specifications

Final accuracy, throughput, number of ingredients, and construction depend on the machine configuration and material properties.

Key Features

• Accurate ingredient proportioning by weight.

• Consistent formulation ratios.

• Multiple-component dosing capability.

• Automatic control of ingredient feeding, where configured.

• Recipe settings for different formulations.

• Load-cell-based weighing system.

• Optional touchscreen controls and production data recording.

• Customizable hoppers, feeders, and discharge arrangements.

• Suitable for integration with existing production lines.

Working Principle

The required ingredients are supplied to individual feeding units. A weighing system measures the quantity of each component, and the controller regulates the feeding process to achieve the programmed weight or proportion. The measured ingredients are then combined and blended, either in a batch chamber or through a continuous mixing arrangement, depending on the system design.

Applications

• Plastic processing: Proportioning virgin resin, regrind, masterbatch, and additives.

• Pharmaceuticals: Controlled weighing and proportioning of suitable ingredients.

• Food processing: Ingredient dosing and formulation control.

• Chemical industry: Accurate proportioning of compatible powders and granules.

• Nutraceuticals: Ingredient measurement for formulated products.

Optional Features

• PLC with touchscreen HMI.

• Multiple ingredient dosing stations.

• Automatic recipe management.

• Batch reporting and data logging.

• Load-cell calibration facilities.

• Dust extraction and enclosed feeding.

• Stainless-steel contact parts.

• Integration with conveyors, mixers, and packaging systems.

Details Required for Quotation

Gravimetric blenders vary significantly by industry. For example, a gravimetric blender for plastic pellets differs from a pharmaceutical powder-dosing system.
