TrueWeigh™ Gravimetric Control System allows extrusion processors to put their equipment on “cruise control.” It tracks material being fed to the extruder and automatically adjusts screw rpm and the haul-off device to maintain a consistent product output regardless of changes in raw materials, ambient conditions or processing variables.

The system offers functionality that suits both mono-layer and co-extrusion applications in film, sheet, extrusion coating, pipe, profile, tubing and wire & cable extrusion.

Engineered as part of the Conair TrueWeigh™ Gravimetric Extrusion Control System, the TrueWeigh Hopper measures the mass flow of material into the extrusion process and sends this loss-in-weight information to the TrueWeigh controller. The controller then accurately monitors or adjusts the extruder screw RPM and/or haul-off RPM to maintain a consistent yield control. This enables an operator to run a uniform product within the tightest tolerances at the lowest possible cost.

The TrueWeigh™ Line Manager allows extrusion processors to put their equipment on “cruise control”. It tracks material being fed to the extruder and automatically adjusts screw rpm and the haul-off device to maintain a consistent product output regardless of changes in raw materials, ambient conditions or processing variables.

The TrueWeigh™ Line Manager has expanded features to control up to 12 extruders, including blenders and haul-off. The expanded functionality suits both mono-layer and co-extrusion applications in film, sheet, coating, pipe, profile, tubing and wire & cable extrusion.
