Task
Dosing different mineral oils from IBCs into an extruder. Filling is based on a preset quantity and must be automated and reproducible. The goal is to ensure a continuous supply to the process under defined flow parameters.
Requirements
- Dosing accuracy ±1%
- Flow rate 60 l/min
- Delivery pressure 1 bar
Solution in Detail
A filling system consisting of an F 430 S drum pump, an FMO 110 flow meter, and FLUXTRONIC® controls dosing in batch mode. Once the target volume is set, the pump starts automatically and stops when the target volume is reached. Additional control is provided by a switching amplifier and valve technology.
Result
Dosing accuracy of ±1% for specified quantities
Automatic batch operation reduces the amount of operator intervention
Continuous supply through automatic refilling
No need to change the IBC during operation
