Xtrutech has developed its new CIP feeder to further reduce cleaning times for our customers. The company has successfully achieved this by automating part of the cleaning process for the new feeder and hopper, with an automated CIP system suitable for all XTS production extruders.
What is CIP?
Clean-in-place is a method of automated cleaning used to clean the interior surfaces of equipment without the need for any disassembly.
This process begins by introducing compressed air, which is injected into the feeder along with resin chips through the discharge station. This acts to create a vortex within the hopper and through a combination of the air, extraction system, and resin the feeder is cleaned quickly and efficiently within six minutes.
Xtrutech’s CIP feeder hopper provides the ideal cleaning solution for powder coating producers, by reducing the machine downtime and increasing valuable production time. Xtrutech’s CIP system preforms a thorough cleaning of the feeder and hopper, which removes cross contamination between batches and ensures the quality of the finished product.
The CIP feed hopper is available on XTS feeders with an option to fit K-Tron twin screw and single screw feeders.
Features:
• CIP Hopper Capacity: 150Ltr (other sizes available on request)
• Total height above feeder: 1,274mm
• Inlet Options: 300mm BFM Spigot or 300mm Dia inlet with rubber seal
• Control: Auto start from HMI
• Compressed Air: Multi filtered 5 Bar minimum pressure (we recommend 7bar)
• Vacuum/extraction: By customer connected to actuated valve provided.
