Improving wire coating through gravimetric control

$15.00

Gravimetric systems accurately control resin usage on wire/cable coating lines. Gravimetric blenders precisely control the additive percentages and supply a homogeneous blend to the extruder. Gravimetric extrusion control systems accurately control the mass throughput of an extrusion line by weight for either coex (including layer ratios) or monoextrusion applications.
