A special type of flow meter suited for powdered or granular solids is the weigh feeder. One of the most common weigh feeder designs consists of a conveyor belt with a section supported by rollers coupled to one or more load cells, such that a fixed length of …

Weigh feeder is a closed-loop system which controls flow of material very accurately using load cell, tacho generator, AC drive and PLC.

Mar 14, 2023 · Weigh feeder is a closed-loop control system. Weigh feeder monitors & regulates material flow using an electronic controller along with various instruments. A weigh feeder is a special type of flow meter equipped for granular or powdered solids.

Acrison’s various Model 260 Weigh Belt Weighers and Weigh Belt Feeders are precision, heavy-duty, high capacity devices designed to weigh and/or totalize the flow of dry solid materials in a Wild-Flow configuration, or to meter dry solid materials in a controlled Closed-Loop configuration as a weigh feeder.

Our Weigh Belt Feeders are built with a strong, fully welded structural steel frame, substantial pulleys, durable belts, & precision load cells. Calibration is quick, easy, & safe, utilizing self-storing calibration weights that eliminate bulky chains or awkward hang-on weights.

Thayer Scale’s Model MD Weigh Belt Feeder is widely recognized mainline industrial continuous weigh belt feeders. They can be used with an open loop belt drive to gravimetrically totalize and measure the flow of material, or with closed control as a feeder and regulate the flow to a constant or varying set point.

Weigh feeders from MERRICK are available in a variety of sizes and belt widths. Our Model 450 Heavy Duty Weigh Feeder is designed for harsh materials and plant environments with belt widths up to 96” and lengths over 60 feet, while our Model 970 Weigh Belt Feeder is constructed from stainless steel for belt widths from 6” to 36.”

The Weigh Feeder is a custom engineered equipment that finds application in continuous bulk proportioning of solids. This gravimetric feeder is operated by a closed loop control system enabling feeding at a controlled rate and exercises precise control over rate of flow based on a micro controller.

Weigh Belt Feeders are relatively simple, extremely reliable gravimetric feeders providing high feeding precision and efficient process monitoring. They can be used as a feeder, batcher, or meter. The SWB is the perfect solution for wild flow metering, where headroom is limited, or when feeding friable material that may be damaged by other ...
