Wittmann will show examples from its Aton range of material drying, Feedmax handling and Gravi- max blending equipment at Chinaplas. Aton dryers use a segmented wheel with multiple chambers each containing a loose fill of desiccant balls, which in combination with the company’s 3-save process control enables optimal energy use and consistent low dew point. The com- pany will display a model fitted with an integrated dry air system for use in demanding optical applications. Wittmann will also show a number of loaders


from its Feedmax S 3-net and Feedmax B series as well as a Gravimix G34 gravimetric blender


offering a throughput of up to 200 kg/h and a DOSIMAX volumetric blender. � www.wittmann-group.com
