For the temperature control of the three roller mill 80E PLUS,
EXAKT recommends using the cooling circulator bath thermostat
by HUBER, model MPC-K6. The unit can be procured via EXAKT
and is then delivered with tube connections matching the three
roller mill and with optimum control configuration.
NOTE
Danger of destruction of device components
It is mandatory to add Glysantin® G48® as corrosion protection to the
water. Operation with water without corrosion protection is not permitted.
Three roller mills with pressure cooling (closed circulation loop) must never
be run dry. Even if no temperature control of the rollers is required for the
application, tempering fluid must circulate through the rollers. This is required
to prevent damage to the rotary units or the rollers.
NOTE
Danger of destruction of device components
› Check coolant filling level during operation.
› If the filling level is steadily increasing in the green area or latest if it is too
high as indicated by the red area, there is a risk that coolant will overflow
within the machine.
Check coolant flow in the return flow for obstacles (kinks, cloggings, steady
gradient), reduce inlet flow if necessary

Danger of roller destruction in force mode.
NOTE
Roller destruction due to product film too thin or missing
› The rollers always need a product film so that the rollers do not run dry on
each other and get damaged.
› NEVER let the machine run empty uncontrolled or without product in gap
mode at gap values <20 Inc
› In force mode, keep monitoring and ensure that there is always a product
film on the rollers. Here, too, avoid uncontrolled running empty of the
machine.

11. Mount the scraper socket with scraper knife.
12. Supply product with spatula.
13. Start machine with speed 100 rpm.
14. Increase gap 1 step by step until an even product film forms. The gap
settings of gap 1 should then be around 30 Inc.
15. Take up the product with the spatula and supply it back to gap 1 (nip
gap).

2 2
Fig. 102: Gap 1/ gap 2 too small Fig. 103: Gap 1/ gap 2 good
If gap 2 is set relatively too tight, the product will flow laterally
outwards and causes leaks of the plastic guides (working widths
85 mm and 170 mm) because the product is transported back from
the center roller back to gap 1 over the newly created width.
With working width 200 mm, the relatively narrow gap 2 causes the
product to pass over at the roller edges, possibly the product is
darted off by roller 3 in this area.
WARNING
Danger of being pulled in by the rollers:
In reversing mode, gap 2 becomes the nip gap. Increased risk of
being pulled in because this gap is not covered by a safety device.
› When working at the machine, pay attention to your hands and
fingers.
› Ensure tight-fitting clothes.
