Custom Material Handling Equipment: Metering Feeders
What is a Metering Feeder?
Industrial Metering Feeders are controlled dispensing machines used for either:
- Continuously delivering material at a controlled flow rate for continuous processes (such as plastics extrusion). This is known as CONTINUOUS FEEDING; or
- Cyclically delivering material up to a determined weight (such as bag filling). This is BATCH FEEDING.
Means of Implementing
Depending on the flow characteristics of fed material and the required feed rate, an Auger Feeder, a Belt Feeder, a Rotary Valve Feeder or a Vibratory Feeder would work best.
