Double screw batch feeder for poorly flowing powders
Effectively manage challenging powders with precise batch dosing and consistent mass flow, ensuring optimal ingredient handling and accurate feed rates.

Ensures Precise Dosing and Consistent Mass Flow
The Double Screw Batch Feeder with Stirring Agitator from Solids Process Solutions is engineered to tackle the challenges of processing poorly flowing or erratic powders. Its stainless steel construction houses a stirring agitator, ensuring consistent screw filling and mass flow. Designed for industries such as aquafeed, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals, this feeder excels in applications requiring precise batch dosing, including fish pellets and multivitamin tablets production.
Working on a loss-in-weight principle, the feeder automatically stops upon reaching the target weight, calculated by the controller for unmatched batch accuracy. The high-tech weighing system and interchangeable screws allow for quick adaption to variable feed rates and ingredient changes, optimizing the feeder’s performance across diverse production lines. Optional versions are easy to clean, minimizing downtime, and maximizing efficiency.
Integrating seamlessly into your PLC-controlled setup, this unit reduces operational interruptions through features like A.R.T. mode and manages demanding requirements while maintaining high throughput. Available customization options ensure compatibility with existing infrastructure, and robust customer support from SPS ensures seamless integration with engineering assistance tailored to your specific needs.
