MechaTron® Coni-Flex® Volumetric and gravimétrie feeding of free to moderately flowing bulk solids - reliable, accurate, without deposits Swiveling of the drive Removal of the screw Removal of the feed hopper The drive for the discharging élément is swivel-mounted. This ensures optimal accessibility to the discharging élément, shaft seal, and feed hopper. AH steps for removal of the screw and the feed hopper can be carried out with a few grips and without the extensive disassembly of the weigh hopper. The MechaTron0 feeder was elected the "Break-through Product of the Year" by Processing Magazine. Our Solutions Package Gravimétrie Feeder 13 Feed hopper with flexible wall and exter­nal discharge aid (massaging paddles) 13 Extension hopper with various dimensions for adjustment to the feed rate and application 13 Two weighing modules, consisting of hermetically sealed (IP67) précision load cells based on strain gauge technology with integrated overload, lift-off and twisting protection 13 Feeding éléments: feeder hélices and screws in single-shaft hopper design 13 DISOCONT® évaluation and control electronics integrated into the mechan-ics, with the option of having thèse in-stalled separately 13 DISOCONT® MASTER Touch group rate control with recipe management. Customized Design 13 Built into the platform 13 Set on the platform 13 Attached to the container Function 13 Principle of the Loss-in-Weight Feeders: The actual feed rate is determined by the weight réduction per unit of time. A controller compares the actual feed rate with the preset nominal rate and adjusts the feeding élément. 13 Massaging paddles move the flexible hopper wall of the Coni-Flex® feeding System and obtain a reliable product flow from the weigh hopper into the feeding élément. Reliable and accurate feeding, customized for the application. The unique design of the Coni-Flex® flexible feed hopper with an axially symmetrical container inlet, flexi­ble wall and external discharging aid provide optimal conditions. From a functional point of view, it is accurately adjusted to the external massaging paddles and ensures a reliable product flow into the feed hopper. The feeder provides optimal bulk solid mechanical conditions for excellent feeding quality without bridging and deposits. A patent application has been filed for this concept. Easy Product Change The Coni-Flex® System can be easily and quickly disassembled and assembled by a single person. During a material change, cleaning and change of the parts in contact with the material takes place from the back, the non-processing side. Advantages that add up. Scope of Application 0 Volumetric and gravimétrie feeding of bulk solids 0 Free to moderately flowing bulk solids The feeders of the Low, Mid, and High Range séries are suited for use in ATEX zones 1,2 and 21, 22, depending on variant. Type examina-tion certified to ATEX, the Systems may be used for the feeding of flammable dusts (Zone 20 inside the machine). Advantages El Cost-efficient feeding solution for free to moderately flowing bulk solids El High feeding accuracy - better than ±0.5% El High feeding constancy- better than ±0.5% El Small size, less wiring, smaller investment and easy servicing due to the integrated DISOCONT® feeding and control elec­tronics as in the MechaTronic version El Quick and easy disassembly for cleaning and product change _20
