For applications with lower color consumption or where the mass to be lifted is limited for ergonomic reasons, a solid ten-liter tinplate pail with clamping ring from Kiewe Technologies is now being used. A pull-out thread is integrated in the lid, onto which a quick-connect plug is screwed in order to ensure a drip-free connection of the color-carrying line to the dosing system. Emptying takes place overhead, thus there is a transport-secured air inlet valve at the bottom of the container. Both the connector and the valve are innovative in-house developments of the supplier, which are manufactured in small batch series using the 3D printing process.
Furthermore, an elegant screw cap container with a volume of one liter will be used in the future for sampling small quantities. The highlight of this solution is the permanently integrated quick-release plug in the lid of the container, which is also manufactured using 3D printing. The handy container simply has to be connected to the color tube and placed upside down on a standard container holder. Once the plug of the container vent embedded in the bottom has been removed, the dosing of color can begin. Thanks to the large opening, the can is easy to clean and reuse.Both containers will be on display at the upcoming KUTENO from May 10 to 12, 2022, at the joint booth of ROMIRA and ROWASOL Z22 in Hall 3 in Rheda-Wiedenbrück.
