WEIGHING AND DOSING SYSTEMS

Volkmann designs and manufactures feeding equipment for precise weighing and dosing of powders and other bulk materials. These feeders are typically integrated with pneumatic vacuum conveyors for transfer and discharge into a mixer, hopper, reactor or other destination where the batch size or weight measurement of the product being conveyed downstream must be delivered with exacting accuracy. Or, these feeders may be configured for constant feeding (dosing) at a fixed rate over a long period of time.

VOLKMANN Weighing and Dosing Systems:

Conweigh

CONWEIGH integrates weighing, dosing, and pneumatic vacuum conveying in a single system that automatically measures both incoming bulk materials and the outgoing material flow.

This versatile concept allows a preset amount of product to be weighed and discharged with up to 99.9% precision or it may be set for continuous dosing at a desired feed rate over time. Recipes may be stored and recalled for fast, easy setup and consistent, repeatable operation.

Conweigh is proven in operation and may be installed with the Volkmann VS conveyor for sanitary and non-regulated operations or with the PPC Series conveyor for pharmaceutical operations.

Vibratory Feeder

Vibratory Feeder Dosing Systems use a proprietary vibrator design to automatically feed powders and other bulk materials in continuous, first-in first-out operation while protecting particle integrity and keeping mixtures mixed in the proper ratios.

Or, configure it with weighing for precise dosing of preset amounts of materials to eliminate human error and ensure consistent recipe specifications.

Suitable for loss-in-weight, gain-in-weight, and continuous metering.
Stainless steel construction for sanitary operations.
Available with open channel or closed (hygienic) dosing tube.
