Vario-Mix A
Used for medium to large continuous material output applications such as casting, coating and gluing. The VARIO-MIX A1/A2 uses positive displacement reciprocating metering pumps and drives them by either a pneumatic or hydraulic power supply system attached to an adjustable lever system assembly. The mixing ratio is adjustable within the given range of the selected metering pump combination via a knurled knob. Variable ratios of 1:1 to 20:1 are most common. Mix ratios outside of this range are possible in some situations.
Vario-Mix S
Used for shot dispense applications and is particularly suitable if the material is being processed in larger quantities by hand or in conjunction with an automated system. The VARIO-MIX S1/S2 is available in both pneumatic and hydraulic versions and operates using positive displacement shot metering pumps.
Mix ratio, shot size and cycle speed are designed into the system during configuration. Shot size selection can be from a mechanical or electronic selector or from an onboard MR-20 processing computer or PLC.
Vario-Mix L (Lamination)
The VARIO-MIX L is an amended design for supplying lamination systems with continuously metered, mixed, and monitored material. This type of system is principally used in the intermittent production and multi-shift operations of the laminated plastics and foil industry.
It operates in the same manner as the VARIO-MIX A with the added features of auto tank refilling, system and material heating and real time close looped monitoring of the material as it is being processed.
All configurations of the VARIO-MIX are standard as “SOLVENT FREE” which means they work as standard without a flushing agent by using disposable static mixers. A version with a low flushing agent requirement is available for special applications if required.
