Among the many products and technology that Sames featured at FABTECH 2023 in Chicago, it had its Cyclomix EVO electronic mixing and dosing system on display. This modular dosing unit optimises waste management, offers full connectivity, and can be used with solvent or water-based paint, acid catalyst, PU or epoxy materials.
Using a patented injection method, the Spraymix technology allows a pre-mixing at the injection point. Spraying the catalyst into a vortex of base ensures a perfect mix and a ready-to-apply paint. A unique dosing algorithm ensures accuracy and repeatability of the ratio regardless of the required flow rate and its variations.
For waste management, the "paint optimization" function allows users to use up to 70 per cent of the paint remaining in the hoses at the end of production. A compact construction with passages designed to reduce retention zones and facilitate flushing, thus reducing solvent consumption.
The SamesApp application allows operators to connect to the Cyclomix Evo, to control it and receive notifications when maintenance has to be performed or when alarms occur. All machine data is constantly recorded and can be retrieved with different media (excel file, OPCua, smartphone).
