Coloring plastic pipes with accurate dosing technology

Do you want more stability in the extrusion production process? Higher efficiency and savings on expensive additives? Reduction of scrap rate? All of these expectations can be fulfilled with a volumetric or a gravimetric dosing system from Movacolor. By using high quality dosing units you can also easily prevent wall thickness variation, color variation and spots in producing pipes.

A multi-component dosing system allows you to dose the main material or to check the throughput of the main material while simultaneously adding color, foaming agent, or processing aid in the proper percentage of the main flow. The gravimetric dosing unit can dose up to six different additives at the same time. The continuous loss-in-weight measurement gives you better control over the total production process of pipes. Movacolor has dosing and metering systems for both PVC and Polyolefin lines, forced feed or starve feed solutions.
