The Colormix manually-operated pneumatic blender is suitable for homogenisation of dispensed inks in buckets. The blender is positioned at the end of the exit side of roller conveyor of the Colorsat Compact or Slim dispensing system.
The blending and cleaning processes are manually operated. All up and down movements of the blender blades and the shaft (raising and lowering) are automatic (by a pneumatic cylinder). After manually positioning of the bucket with dispensed ink underneath the blender, the blending process can be started and stopped by means of manually turning the pneumatic switches.
The blender can be manually turned over a bucket with detergent or water, which makes it suitable to clean the blender blades and the shaft. Also the cleaning process can be started and stopped by means of turning switches.
