Should the application require a non-measured or closed loop
Should the application require a non-measured or closed loop controlled system a volumetric Dosing unit is the right choice. Consisting of a hopper mounted to a Dosing housing which contains a changeable auger. The electronics consist of a PWM DC motor with a 50:1 speed range and drive card running in an open loop. PLAST-CONTROL offers only the highest degree or reliability both mechanically and electronically. It is possible to install 1 to 6 units on one system. Additionally it is possible to have 1 control panel which controls several units on different systems to save space and cost. There are six quick change auger screws available with different rates.
