A system for micro and tote batching
Customized ingredient-batching systems with both liquid and dry materials (photo) are now available. Each automatic Micro and Tote Batching System is custom designed and manufactured to meet the specific needs and requirements of the user for batching both liquid and dry materials. These systems typically include supply bins, feeders, work platforms, automatic or manual bin refilling, liquid tank/pump skid equipment and the dry and liquid dosing automatic control system. Optional equipment may include raw-material bag-lift handling equipment, dust collection/control for high-dust dry materials, batch material conveying equipment (such as mechanical drag conveyor), lot tracking and traceability, barcode scanning and RFID scanning. Other customized options can also be included. Micro weighing systems are those that have scale weighments up to around 50 lb. Larger weighments are known as Minor (from 50 to 100–150 lb) and Major (>150 lb). — Systems & Controls, Inc., Sterling, Ill.
