Blending Systems

K4G Gravimetric Blender for Compounding and Resin Production

The K4G Continuous Gravimetric Blender System was designed with the specific requirements of the plastics processing industry in mind. 

The compact design and low space requirements of the K4G integrated system allow four or six feeders with Premier loaders to be easily grouped around an extruder inlet. Single stations are also available.

A wide variety of standard feeders can be integrated into the K4G single-point weighing system, depending on the feeding requirements.

  • K4G single screw feeders, Bulk Solids Pump feeders and K-Tron Premier vacuum conveyors are designed for handling free flowing bulk materials.
  • K-Tron Twin-screw feeders and Premier powder receivers can handle powders and non-free-flowing materials.
  • The Premier vacuum conveyors are available as self-contained loaders or part of a complete central system.
