Paint & Coatings
GEMINI manufactures custom made dispensing systems for a wide range of applications in the paint & coatings industry that can combine product storage, dispensing, logistic systems and mixing / shaking.
We have developed some typical GEMINI systems (ColorKing RT, SegmentTank ST, FlexoKing FT) that may suit your specific needs, but we also manufacture more conventional systems.
All our systems are able to produce large batches and/or small volumes in the range between approx. 1 kg. up to 3.000 kg.The systems are also available in explosion proof execution and can dispense colorants, base materials and additives all on one weighing scale or on multiple weighing scales to achieve a higher output. GEMINI systems are mainly used in-plant, but are also suitable for end users.
Due to our long term experience in this industry, we have the knowledge of dispensing very low viscosity products as well as high viscosity products.
Wallpaper & Floor covering
This industry has completely different requirements due to the products that are being used (e.g. PVC plastisols). For this industry we have developed the GEMINI WPD-system that combines product storage, automatic transport of empty tubs, dispensing and mixing. Especially the mixing unit is unique in it's kind. It has an automatic viscosity control system that has the ability to achieve the desired viscosity fully automatic.
GEMINI has successfully applied its dispensing / mixing technology in this industry.
Ink
The ink industry requires the same dispensing technology as the paint & coatings. Especially inks that are being used for flexographic and gravure printing methods can be dispensed with the same systems as used in the paint and coatings.
Ink manufacturers very often require in-plant dispensing systems to produce large batches of ink. At the same time these manufacturers can recommend smaller systems to their customers for preparing small batches that have to be added to the printers.
GEMINI offers in-plant systems as well as more cost effective smaller systems (e.g. FlexoKing CD) for the end-users.
Concrete
The concrete industry is another market where GEMINI has successfully introduced dispensing systems for liquid pigment pastes. Manufacturers of e.g. colored paving cubes are changing from powder pigments to liquid pigments because of cost and accuracy. With a higher accuracy, the number of colorants can be reduced in order to create the same color scheme.
This industry further requires robust dispensing systems in order to withstand vibrations and dust.
Thanks to special pump execution and valve design, this system is very reliable and long lasting even with highly abrasive pigments.
Chemicals
The chemical industry is similar to the paint & coatings industry. Recipe based dispensing of several components into a container. The chemical industry however may require higher safety measures.
Keys or special tools, which are supplied for limiting access to areas or functions will provide a safe workplace.
Flavour & Fragrances
This industry is characterised by dispensing a large number of components and is only a small step away from the conventional dispensing systems. The industry requires dispensing systems that are able to dispense small quantities with a very high accuracy.
GEMINI can easily handle these needs by offering systems, where a large number of valves are all placed in line and where a small container can be positioned under these valves.
Textile
GEMINI can also offer dispensing systems for preparing and handling products for textile printing.
Similar to the wallpaper industry, the transportation of containers/tubs (feed/discharge) can be automatised.
Our systems take into account both the need for speed and high accuracy dispensing of e.g. printing paste.
Rework of return ink is also a possibility.
We are able to offer you solutions that are not only accurate, but also cost effective. (e.g. plastic storage tanks or drums that have to be exchanged when empty)
