Tecweigh Gravimetric Feeder and Controller

Category:
Manufacturer

The polyurethane Flex-Feed® hopper is stronger, more resilient and abrasion-resistant than vinyl. No cracks or ledges exist to collect material. The hopper interlocks with the cabinet for a tight seal. The patented auger and feed-tube designs allow for quick, tool-less removal and re-assembly. Our Gravimetric Feeders are flexible enough to accommodate a wide variety of dry materials, from fine powders to large pellets. Our three different sizes of feeders can move from 0.003 ft3/hr to more than 900 ft3/hr.
