SMART-4: Spiroflow Material Automatic Refilling Technology
System OVerview
Introducing the new Spiroflow Melter Automatic Refilling Technology from Spiroflow Systems, developed to convey small format hot-melt adhesives to hot melt tanks. The portable SMART-4 and SMART-Bulk systems automatically deliver materials on demand to multiple locations.
The SMART-4 utilizes a portable to hopper and vacuum lances to refill tanks up to 20m (60′) away.
Looking to supply more than four locations? The SMART-Bulk system is capable of feeding materials to more than eight locations at distances of over 60m (200 ft), from a single bulk bag discharger.
HOW IT WORKS & BENEFITS
- A level probe continually senses the material level in each receiver vessel
- The control system receives a low-level signal from each vessel when it requires more material
- A predetermined amount of material is quickly conveyed via venturi transfer lines to maintain optimal levels and temperatures of material in each location
- An audible and visible alarm quickly alerts the operator of low material level in the SMART-4.
