Polymix 1900 Overview
The PolyMix 1900 range of machines has been developed from the fixed ratio 9020/9220 systems.
The linked drives have been replaced with servo hydraulics, enabling each motor to be independently driven and hence variable ratio.
The range was further evolved for the electrical insulation industry where materials were produced with a high filler content and prepared products supplied in 205 litre drums.
2KM developed a variable ratio, programmable flow system, where the machine can be integrated with a mould clamp and a fill process written and repeated for the specific product.
PolyMix 1900 utilises a proportion hydraulic drive system and refillable containers to ensure production continuity.
