Mixer and Dispenser for Turbine Blade Manufacturing

By Windpower Engineering | September 15, 2009

The DC12 High-Volume Metering System is intended for dispensing large amounts of adhesive and tooling paste. The equipment, from Graco Inc, Minneapolis, is ideal for applications in the wind-energy market. “This unit also marks the beginning of a more high-volume metering systems in the wind-energy market,” says company’s manager of advanced fluid dispensing Doug Brady.

The DC12 High Volume Metering System provides repeatable on-ratio dispensing and works to accuracies of ±3%.

The DC12 is said to accurately deliver up to 12 kg/min (26 lb/min) of adhesives and up to 6 kg/min (13 lb/min) of tooling paste. It features an intuitive, easy-to-use touch panel. The EnGarde ratio monitor has optional external flow meters to offer ratio monitoring independent of the ratio and supply system. And, the company says, the D200s Supply Systems are the industry’s most durable, reliable pumps that maximize system uptime.
