Multi-Component Mixhead

The Linden MHL-E Mixhead supplies excellent mixing qualities and splash-free pouring. Optional computer controlled orifices can be quickly altered to handle single density or dual density materials and for changing ratio, shot size, and shot timing. For example, an entire seat cushion can be manufactured with a soft seat area and firmer lumbar area.

4 to 1 Ratio Change in 0.5 Seconds

The system can accomplish a 4 to 1 throughput change in 0.5 seconds. The mixhead, with automatically controlled orifice pressure, is a 6-stream L-Head unit currently dedicated to 4 stream processing. Three of the four streams can be selectively turned on or off as required.

Multiple Densities from a Single Mixhead

Since the shot ratio, throughput, and weight can be programmed and computer controlled for each mold, the system provides a new level of flexibility. Molders can run a variety of formulations and output ranges on the same production line with a single metering machine.

Available in a 2, 4, 5 and 6-stream impingement models, this advanced head comes equipped with proximity switches on both the clean-out and the control plungers to provide signals for process control and ensure consistent shot-time accuracy.
