Continuous Mixing

A loss-in-weight continuous mixing process utilizes automated loss-in-weight feeders to continuously add material to a process. A variety of materials can be sent from the feeders to a receiver, mixer or directly to an extruder for processing. As materials are combined and processed, the loss-in-weight feeder calls for more material and refills are fast and efficient, minimizing the time the feeders are in volumetric mode. This maintains the highest feeder accuracy possible.

Horizon Systems’ continuous mixing processes offer the flexibility and accuracy you need thanks to our Intelligent Ingredient recipe matrix combined with integrated inventory and tracking intelligence solutions. Customized recipe management controls regulate the introduction of ingredients into the process and modify the feeder sequencing to produce multiple recipes with repeatable success.
