Device accurately weighs bulk solids, from g/min to ton/h
Vibra-Screw
This company offers a family of continuous and batching weighing solutions for a diverse array of dry bulk materials, to handle bulk feeding ranging from silo discharge to micro-ingredient feeding. Accurate weighing of dry bulk solids requires reliable and consistent flow of material from storage into the feed mechanism itself. These feeders use controlled vibration to promote uniform flow and completely fill and empty each flight of the feed screw. As a result, all of the company’s weigh-feeding systems start as highly accurate volumetric feeders, eliminating inaccuracy during the refill cycle, says the company. Weigh feeders are available in screen sizes from¼ to 18 in., along with a broad range of belt, pan and tube feeder-based systems. — Vibra-Screw, Totowa, N.J.
