Feeding … Volumetric feeders The bulk material is metered volumetrically with a feeding helix or screw. Intromitters prevent the formation of bridges and ensure homogeneous conveying of the bulk solids into the feeding tool. Volumetric feeding The feed rate depends on the volume of product transported per time unit. Loss-in-weight feeders For continuous gravimetrically controlled loading of extruders, kneaders or continuous mixers. As a batch feeder for the weighing of products. The Easydos controller can be used as a flexible solution for all feeders and metering applications. The feed...
