The TSM Opti-Blend provides a Loss in Weight based “dosing” solution to gravimetric blending and extrusion control for up to 7 components. The primary component is gravity fed directly to the extruder throat and the secondary (side fed materials) maintain recipe ratio via auger feeds.

The unit is controlled via the latest generation of controller with full machine direction control of the extrusion process.
