Granules loss-in-weight feeder

weightvibrating trayhopper

The Loss-in-Weight Feeder from Coperion K-Tron has a feeding device with a hopper that contains material that is needed for the feeding, and is placed on a platform scale or suspension scale weighing system. The bulk material or liquid is discharged from the hopper by the feeding device and the resultant weight loss per unit of time is determined by the weighing and control system. The Coperion K-Tron Control Module combines the feeder control function together with the motor drive or vibratory tray drive and mounts directly on the feeder frame in an IP65 / Nema 4 enclosure. This eliminates the need to mount components in remote control panels and eliminates expensive cabling between the feeder and the operator interface in the control room.
