PolyTool 8320 Overview
This system utilises precision, triple screw, progressive cavity metering pumps to apportion low density materials used in the manufacture of marine plugs or automotive models.
The ceramic lined pumps can generate high pressures while handling the filler gently to prevent damage to the spheres during the metering phase of the process.
Each metering pump is directly coupled to an inverter operated, geared AC motor, enabling ratio adjustment suitable to different materials and flow rates.
The standard system is equipped with a disposable dynamic mixer mounted on a swing arm to position the mixed material over the work area.
