Batch weighers for large-volume powder and granulate weighing
Ensure precise ingredient dosing and streamline your production process with high-capacity batch weighers, designed to handle large volumes of powders and granulates efficiently.

Accurately Weighs and Doses Powders and Granules
The Batch Weighers from Ottevanger Milling Engineers are precision-engineered solutions designed to efficiently handle the weighing and dosing of both powdered and granulated materials in various industrial settings. Key to its innovation is the rapid-discharge slide or chain conveyor, which facilitates swift material release, enhancing overall batch processing speed. Ideal for industries like animal feed, pet food, and oilseed processing, these weighers support accurate formulation of products such as poultry feed, dog kibble, and soybean meal.
With a weighing capacity ranging from 500 to 6,000 kg, these machines employ multiple load cells to ensure precise weight metrics. Integration into existing production lines is streamlined, supported by automated control systems for seamless operation. The equipment is constructed for durability and resistance to industrial wear, offering customizable options to meet specific user needs. Incorporating Ottevanger’s batch weighers can significantly improve process efficiency and product quality, making them a valuable asset in any processing facility.
