Small-footprint weigh feeder can move a lot of solids
The Model 408 Series weigh feeders provide an economical and compact means to accurately and dependably feed a range of dry solid materials, with a compact footprint measuring just 18 in. × 28 in. The Model 408 feedrates range from a fraction of a pound, to thousands of pounds, per hour, with continuous metering accuracies ranging from±0.25 to 1% or better error at two sigma, says the company. High-resolution weight sensing is accomplished by the company’s Ratiometric Digital Weight Resolver, which instantaneously produces an unamplified, non-integrated, realtime weigh signal for precise feedrate control using one of the company’s multi-process controllers.— Acrison, Inc., Moonachie, N.J.
