SGC Series Blender

The Sterling Control System automatically adjusts individual ingredient feeders to match the learned extruder rate at the exact ratio required. The SGC Series lower mass flow weigh hopper learns the exact extruder rate, continuously sending the information to the control system, and automatically adjusts the upper material feed rates to match the learned extruder rate to maintain a consistent ingredient ratio.

The mass flow weigh hopper design eliminates funneling and assures consistent, accurate flow of all free-flowing materials. The SGC Series Continuous Gravimetric Blender allows metering on a continuous basis from two to seven materials at a metered rate that provides a consistent blend that follows the extruder rate.

• Precision 1/10% of span accurate cantilevered load cells for a very accurate weighing system
• Variable frequency drive (VFD) system with inverter duty (brushless) AC motors; provide precision auger metering with greater recipe ranges compared to traditional DC drives
• Control system automatically adjusts individual ingredient feeders to match learned extruder rate at the exact ratio required
• Upper material supply hoppers include conical reload valves,which allow loading system to operate independently of the blender
• Cast aluminum feeder housings with drains
