Gentle, precise feeding of free-flowing materials
The unique Coperion K-Tron Bulk Solids Pump (BSP) feeders have been specifically designed and engineered to provide gentle, precise feeding of free-flowing pellets, granules, flakes, powders and friable products.
The BSP feeders do not use the usual screws/augers, belts or vibratory trays to convey the material. Instead, they utilize positive displacement action to feed free flowing materials with astounding accuracy, offering uniform discharge, consistent volume and gentle handling. All BSP feeders have vertical rotating discs that create a product lock-up zone, conveying the material smoothly from storage hopper to discharge outlet, achieving true linear mass flow.
True positive displacement action Linear over full operating range Uniformity of discharge Active discharge (minimal residual material) Mechanical & maintenance simplicity
Utilizing a simple design and the principle known as „lock-up“, the material in the feeder is moved together in true positive displacement, producing excellent linearity and breakthrough accuracy levels. The compact feeder is cleaned in seconds, making it ideal for applications with frequent material changes.
