Single screw batch feeder with stirring agitator for powders and pellets

Ensure precise ingredient control and consistency with a feeder that integrates seamlessly into your batch processing line, optimizing throughput with high weighing accuracy and adjustable feed rates.

Ensures Precise Dosing and Feeding

The Single Screw Batch Feeder with Stirring Agitator, offered by Solids Process Solutions (SPS), is designed for precise loss-in-weight dosing of powders and granules. Its stainless steel construction features a stirring agitator for consistent screw filling, essential for industries like dairy, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals, producing items from ethylene glycol to pet food kibble. This feeder allows quick adaptation with interchangeable screws, accommodating varied ingredients and feed rates. The high-tech weighing system ensures accuracy by computing target weights and halting operations upon attainment. The feeder integrates into processing and pre-processing operations, facilitating batch and continuous processes. For easy maintenance, it includes an option for rapid cleaning, and its modular design supports seamless integration into existing setups, enhancing operational efficiency.
