The Automatic Gravimetric Extruder Yield Control System by TSM Control Systems is an advanced solution designed to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the extrusion process in manufacturing. This system uses a gravimetric feeder and sensors to measure and control the weight of the material being extruded, resulting in precise and consistent output that meets required specifications.

The TSM Gravimetric Blenders continuously monitor material throughput and optimize yield on extrusion lines by reducing setpoints to a minimum. The system monitors the line speed and extruder output to guarantee precise on-specification and consistent output quality, reducing waste considerably while operating at optimum yields. The system also provides roll, order and shift summaries by component, allowing for precise calculation of material costs and net profit margin analysis per order.
