| SILOTRAY BIN ACTIVATOR |
|
The
SiloTray is a multi-functional device that can be mounted
directly on the discharge end of the silo, where it
offers discharging, proportioning and shut-off functions
in one. It consists of a vibratory discharge bottom
and proportioning device which is suspended from the
bottom of silos and bins. Special hanger arms center
the unit and allow horizontal vibration. The working
method does not require agitators and ensures non-compacting
"first in-first out" discharge without bridging or particle
deterioration. This feeder is suitable for all flowable
bulk materials without hygroscopic, sticky or floodable
flow characteristics, such as granules, powders, flakes,
fibrous materials and chips. Suitable for silos made
of mild or stainless steel, aluminum or plastics.

| VIBRATORY
FEEDER ON A SCALE |
 |
Vibrating trays or tubes are a popular
feed device for pellets, some powders, granules and fibers.
Brabender manufacturers its own amplitude feedback resonant
frequency controller to eliminate feed rate changes with
tray load changes. |
| MASS
FLOW SCALE |
|
This
flow scale is a dust-tight fully enclosed compact unit
for determining bulk material flow by force measurement.
It is suitable for all non-adhesive flowable bulk ingredients
at temperatures up to +70°C and is distinguished by
its favourable cost-performance ratio. Ingredient characteristics
or fall height do not affect accuracy. Bulk material
is supplied from above and fed onto a constantly rotating
impeller wheel driven by a three phase current motor.
The material is diverted radially. The force acts on
the guide blades of the wheel and causes changes in
the torque of the drive motor proportional to the bulk
material flow, which are sensed by a load cell and measured
by a microcomputer controller.

| TWIN
SCREW FEEDER |
 |
Twin screw feeders are used for poor
flowing, floodable or sticky powders, normally at rates
below 50 lbs per hour. The twin screw design provides
a large cross section flow area into the screws to reduce
the potential to bridge across the screw opening. High
screw speeds, self wiping and double flighting provides
an accurate feed. The self cleaning twin-concave screws
ensure reliable feeding even of the most difficult ingredients.
|
| AGITATED
SCREW FEEDER (Loss-in-Weight) |
 |
The agitated screw feeder feeds poorly
flowing bulk ingredients. The hopper agitator homogenizes
the ingredient and ensures reliable ingredient supply
to the twin screw and a constant screw filling level.
All parts that have contact with the ingredient are made
of stainless steel. |
