SGBD Series Batch Gravimetric Blenders

Sterling's gravimetric batch weigh blenders provide precise blends of up to 8 free flowing components. The blenders operate on a "gain-in-weight" principle, where each component is metered into a "batch hopper" using a diamond gate metering device.

Accumeter® Continuous-Loss-In-Weight Blender

The AccuMeter® Series is designed to blend a wide range of materials in continuous extrusion applications, and offers the most homogenous blend available compared to batch type blenders, feeders or mixers. The feeders are mounted on precision load cells, continuously weighing the output of each component.

SDD Series

PRECISION FEEDING FOR EXTRUSION OR INJECTION MOLDING
The SDD Digital Dosing System offers precise feeding for almost any plastics machine, whether your application is injection molding, blow molding, or extrusion. The SDD 2 dosing unit offers the ability to use dual additives at different rates.

SF Series Volumetric
Additive Feeder

Sterling's volumetric screw additive feeders are the industry standard for metering of color concentrate, regrind or other additives. They feature modular design for one or two materials with an interchangeable stainless steel auger assembly.

SF1000 Gravimetric Additive Feeder

The SF1000 features a compact, gravimetric additive feeder that allows it to accurately meter additives as well as track material usage.

S-150 Digital Dosing Controller

The Sterling S150 is a microprocessor based controller used to operate the Sterling automatic dosing station.

SGA Series Gravimetric
Auger Blender

The SGA Series gravimetric batch blending system features precision auger metering of all ingredients and can be used for regrind, powder and difficult or hard-to-meter materials.

GH-F Series Gravimetric
Additive Feeder

The GH-F Series gravimetric feeder adds colorant or other free-flowing material to your process, based on a selfcalibrating controller that makes recalibration unnecessary and eliminates the overfeeding that typically accompanies volumetric feeders.

GH & GH-M Series Extrusion Control Weigh Hoppers

The GH extrusion control and GH-M extruder rate monitor units match the extruder throughput, track material usage, and can control extruder output with the optional control system.

CoExpert^TM Extrusion
Control System

CoExpert^TM is a Microsoft Windows®-based computer package used in conjuction with HydReclaim blending and feeding equipment to control the extrusion process. It can be used on single or multi-layer applications, including wire and cable, profile, blown or cast film, or sheet. CoExpert reduces material usage, improves product quality, and increases productivity.

SPB Series Blender

The SPB Series blender is
designed for continuous extrusion applications for powder, pellet or micro-pellet materials and offers the most homogeneous blend available compared to common batch-type blenders or mixers. Materials like PVC, wood flour and additives can be efficiently blended for your operation. Twin screw feeders can also be provided for non-free-flowing materials.

A3 Blender Control and Data Acquisition Software

The A3 Blender Control and Data Acquisition System is a data collection network program that can be used to download and analyze inventory run rates, run status, and target vs. actual recipe set points. Using A3, you can upload recipes and access recipe storage book functions, as well as start and stop blenders and feeders.

SIT Inventory Monitor Units

SIT Series batch weigh inventory and density monitor units are designed to mount on an existing bin. The SIT Series accurately monitors material usage by weight with 1/10% span accurate cantilever load cells.
