MCWeight

The MCWeight is specifically designed to measure the actual filling capacity of an extruder. It has an integrated weighing module to accurately measure throughput and an integrated gate valve to control filling. Combined with one or more Movacolor devices, the MCWeight follows even the smallest capacity changes of the extruder. It adjusts the dosing of additives from the metering units accordingly. Dried material with a temperature of up to 180°C can be processed with the MCWeight.

This throughput measurement system allows you to get the most out of your extrusion line. It gives you a real-time insight into the actual capacity of your line and monitors the consumption of your materials. In combination with our MCLine Control, it can even control your entire extrusion line, including upstream and downstream equipment.

"The MCWeight madeour extrusion process much more stable, saving us raw material, but also costly additives like dye and catalyst. But more importantly, we reduced our scrap by more than 70%."

Benefits

    Plug and Play
    The MCWeight can be connected to up to 14 Movacolor metering units. No interface control with the extruder is required. You can install an MCWeight on each coextruder, allowing control of multiple MCWeight units through one control interface.
    Quality control
    Quality is monitored by continuous control data from both the MCWeight and the feeders. The MCSmart software gives you this maximum control. With the MCLine Control you can even fully monitor the extrusion line.
    The foundation for complete control in your extrusion line
    The MCWeight is the perfect foundation for your MCContinuous Blender or for your MCLine Control system.
