Item # AFVC, AFV-Series Precision Additive Feeders


The AFV Series Volumetric Additive Material Feeder from Process Control is designed to inject color concentrates or other additive-type materials directly into a material stream at the feed throat of an Extruder or molding machine. The AFV Series is a simple, easy to operate feeder, offering unparalleled accuracy and cost savings to plastic processors.

Standard features include a horizontal solid-flight auger with a 1/4 HP variable speed AC gearmotor for precise metering of colorants or other additives into the virgin or virgin/regrind flow as it enters the machine throat. The digital controller can be configured for local manual speed control or can be synchronized to either follow an Extruder rate or run in a remote run/stop mode for injection molding processes. Other standard features include a sample port for feeder calibration, a clear view sight glass on either side, and a material drain port for easy clean-out and quick material changes. The hopper lid can be configured either for hand loading or with mounting provisions for a vacuum type loader.

The feeders are available in two different hopper sizes and various auger and gear motor ratios for rates of 0.5 - 3,500 PPH. A central mounting adapter can accommodate up to (4) feeders for introducing various colors and/or additives into a single processing machine.
