Application
Use weigh belt feeders for gravimetric feeding at higher feed rates or where low headroom is a problem. Especially at high feed rates, a weigh belt feeder offers lower initial cost than a loss-in-weight feeder with equal throughput.
Weigh Belt Models
Materials Fed: free-flowing pellets, powders, fibers and friable materials.
