The Dos-Weigh feeder is a gravimetric loss-in-weight or gain-in-weight system designed for handling and weighing fine powders. It solves problems that occur when handling fine cohesive powders, like TIO2. This includes no flow, flooding, rat holing, limited discharge rate, and product separation. Unlike other gravimetric feeders that use brute force to make fine materials flow, this feeder uses energy-efficient TransFlow technology. This technology conditions fine powders with a layer of air making it easy for materials to flow and eliminates the high maintenance cost of the high horsepower motorized drives.
The unit provides weighing accuracy of +/- .02 to .05%, high turndown rate for high weighing accuracies, longer length discharge (up to 48 in. long), only one moving part in the product zone, low-energy usage, easy to disassemble for cleaning, precise weighing of cohesive and abrasive products.
