The
FlexCart Micro unit is designed to operate on non-
continuous processes that require small units and which
run with lower process throughputs.
Choice of options will depend on what your
process requires:
• Is the process continuous?
throughput (kg/hr)
250
Max. metering rate (cc/s) 10
Continuous use No
Transfer pumps N/A
Metering pumps PC/Peri
Interchangeable cassette Yes
Note: PC = Progressing Cavity Pump
Peri = Peristatic Pump
PLANETPAK™ CONTAINERS AND
LN PACKAGING OPTIONS
The FlexCart suite of metering systems is designed
to work with the standardized PolyOne range of
packaging typically achieving 99% reliable yield on
continuous operating systems, while at the same
time also achieving a sustainable packaging format
in terms of full recyclability.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2020-08/colormatrix-flexcart-nano-liquid-metering-system-flyer_0.pdf
The FlexCart Nano
unit is designed to operate with non-continuous
processes.
Key questions for deciding on a FlexCart Nano unit
include the type of operation involved and what your
process requires:
• Is the process non-continuous?
throughput (kg/hr)
50
Max. metering rate (cc/s) 1.8
Continuous use No
Transfer pumps N/A
Metering pumps Peri
Interchangeable cassette No
Note: Peri = Peristatic Pump
PLANETPAK™ CONTAINERS
The FlexCart range of metering systems is designed to work
with the standardized Avient range of packaging, typically
achieving 99% reliable yield on continuous operating
systems, and at the same time achieving a sustainable
packaging format in terms of full recyclability.

GETTING STARTED
TIMING IS THE KEY TO A RUNNING
COLOR CHANGE
Hand Blend
• Have the purge blend ready to load
• If hopper contains a mixture of resin, color and/
or regrind, it should be run dry or drained before
beginning the color change, keeping the screw
full so press cycle continues
• Run the main resin hopper dry or shut off hopper
to hand feed at the throat
• Once press is clean, slide hopper in place
and proceed with next color-resin blend
• The next color can be added while Cesa Clean is
still in the barrel
• When splay is no longer visible in parts, reset shot
size, parts should be ready to pack
(Single) Volumetric/Gravimetric Metering Unit
at the Throat
• Empty and clean feeder while press continues
to run
• Add Cesa Clean to the feeder color hopper and
calibrate to a 3.0% use rate
• When press is clean, start next color
• When splay is no longer visible in parts, reset shot
size, parts should be ready to pack
• Note: If an open/unused secondary feeder is
installed, use it for the Cesa Clean concentrate
Central Blending Unit
• Thoroughly clean unit while continuing to mold
parts, keeping a resin feed to the press
• Using a clean open hopper or regrind hopper, add
the Cesa Clean concentrate
• Set blender for additive/color to 3.0%
• Once press is clean, drain hopper and/or central
blending unit while continuing to mold parts
• Begin new color and continue to mold parts
• When splay is no longer visible in parts, reset shot
size, parts should be ready to pack
Process Adjustments That Can Help
• Increase back pressure
• Increase screw speed
• Increase injection speed (in some tools maximum
injection speed can facilitate cleaning)
• Reduce mold close time (faster cycle)
• Always remember a stock temperature of 400°F
is essential
When press and tool are clean, return all settings to
standard production process profile.

The speed and extent of an economic recovery, including the recovery of the housing market;
Our ability to achieve new business gains;
The effect on foreign operations of currency fluctuations, tariffs, and other political, economic and regulatory risks;
Changes in polymer consumption growth rates in the markets where we conduct business;
Changes in global industry capacity or in the rate at which anticipated changes in industry capacity come online;
Fluctuations in raw material prices, quality and supply and in energy prices and supply;
Production outages or material costs associated with scheduled or unscheduled maintenance programs;
Unanticipated developments that could occur with respect to contingencies such as litigation and environmental matters;
An inability to achieve or delays in achieving or achievement of less than the anticipated financial benefit from initiatives related to working
capital reductions, cost reductions, employee productivity goals, and an inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services;
An inability to raise or sustain prices for products or services;
An inability to maintain appropriate relations with unions and employees;
The inability to achieve expected results from our acquisition activities;
Our ability to continue to pay cash dividends;
The amount and timing of repurchases of our common shares, if any; and

The finer the fiber, the greater
the specific surface area and the better the filtration
performance.
The smallest particles are extracted
from the air by electrostatic attraction to the fibers.
Charging only
works when the correct masterbatch is utilized
which, together with the fiber denier, gram weight
and number of layers, ensures that the middle layer
of protective masks can effectively trap smaller
particles.
