Automatic refill stations
Material-specific preparation, homogeneous consistency and continuous material supply
When used in fully automated manufacturing processes, automatic refilling stations ensure material-specific preparation for homogeneous material consistency and provide a continuous supply of materials to the material pressure tanks of the mixing and dosing system – without exposure or contamination of the products to be filled. Partially equipped with an automatic lifting device for more operating convenience and greater occupational and system safety. Production interruptions are therefore a thing of the past.
They are controlled by the mixing and dosing system with the help of monitoring by means of fill-level sensors in the material containers.
Controlled agitators with an adjustable speed range and a programmable timer ensure optimum homogenization of the reactive materials. For the ELEVATOR and BIG ELEVATOR refill stations, the agitator can be equipped with different agitating elements depending on the material.
Existing production plants can be retrofitted
