Product catalog summary
Overview: The AZODOS® dosing units, types P … DV and P … DW, are designed for continuous dosing of powder products with maximum accuracy. They are used as loss-in-weight scales and feature easy cleaning mechanisms, making them suitable for industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and plastics.
Specifications: The units are constructed from stainless chrome nickel steel with various surface finishes. They include high-grade dosing screws and a modular design for easy extension. The system ensures maximum dosing accuracy through coarse/fine flow and is equipped with a double screw for handling bulk materials with poor flow properties.
Design and Operation: The AZODOS® type P … DV operates in volumetric mode, while the type P … DW functions as a gravimetric feeder when paired with the AZO®CONT controller. The system can be expanded with a platform load cell or a 3-point weighing frame to function as a negative scale. The dosing screws are driven by frequency-controlled motors, and an agitator ensures uniform discharge.
Technical Data: The units vary in weight and connected load, with throughput capacities depending on the screw type and product characteristics. Noise levels are maintained below 70 dB(A), and dosing accuracy is typically +/- 0.5% in continuous operation. The material in contact with the product is made from 1.4301 stainless steel, with an optional 1.4404 variant.
Control and Integration: Up to 10 dosing stations can be managed with the AZO®CONT controller, which supports extensive workflows like balancing and recipe handling. The system can be integrated with PC-based visualization systems and the KASTOR process control system for enhanced operational control.
Applications and Advantages: The AZODOS® units are ideal for processes requiring precise dosing and are easy to clean and maintain. They offer precise online adjustment control, quick correction of deviations, and high-resolution measurement value logging. The design allows for easy removal of components without tools, facilitating maintenance and cleaning.

The basic unit consists of a housing, in which one or two dosing screws are installed. The dosing screws are driven by frequency-controlled geared motors. An agitator is used to uniformly fill the dosing screws from a surge bin. Different versions and sizes of the surge bins are available, suitable for automated or manual filling. The dosing screws can be removed from the housing by pulling back with a detachable extractor, thus facilitating cleaning and replacement of individual components. AZODOS® type P ...
