Loss-in-weight feeder for small volume bulk solids

In industries requiring precise feeding of small quantities of bulk solids, achieving consistent accuracy and reliability is crucial. Traditional feeders often struggle with maintaining such precision at low flow rates, leading to potential inefficiencies and waste in processes like extruding, mixing, and granulating.

Ensures precise feeding accuracy and flexibility

The MechaTron Min Loss-in-weight feeder from Schenck Process is designed for high-precision feeding of very small volumes of poor-flowing bulk solids. Capable of delivering rates between 100 g and 10 kg per hour, this feeder is ideal for laboratory and test facility applications. Its twin shaft auger and vertical agitator ensure consistent and reliable feeding. The modular design allows for quick disassembly and cleaning, reducing downtime and maintaining efficiency. Two feed hoppers, a 4-liter conical hopper for smaller outputs and an 8-liter hopper for larger outputs, cater to various needs. The integrated measurement, control, and regulation electronics provide superior accuracy, ensuring process integrity.

Benefits

  • High accuracy for small volume feeding
  • Modular design for easy cleaning and maintenance
  • Adaptable to different product requirements with multiple hopper options
  • Integrated electronic controls for precise regulation
  • Protective housing minimizes environmental disturbances
