TSM’s OPTI-YIELD range of Loss-in-Weight systems offer precise measurement, total reliability and advanced extrusion control options to ensure consistent end product quality with reduced material usage. The Opti-Yield system provides continuous throughput measurement and automatic throughput control.
Haul off speed measurement can be added to ensure that the Weight per Length is controlled to the desired specification (yield control). This ensures that the product being produced is maintained at the desired average thickness or unit weight without operator intervention. This mode can be extended to weight per area control through entry or automatic measurement of material width.
The TSM OPTI-YIELD provides an extremely reliable, robust and precise solution for gravimetric extrusion control. The material is gravity fed directly to the extruder throat and can operate in starve or flood fed applications.
