The MSV feeder includes Thayer Scale’s low-profile cable scale utilizing a micro-lever system which counterbalances the tare weight, resulting in load-cell utilization significantly higher than other options.
The higher load-cell utilization provides numerous benefits: higher accuracy, typically 0.25% of feed rate, fast responsiveness to changes in set point or material density fluctuations, resulting in higher quality ration material delivery and the elimination of “dead zones” common in gravimetric feeding applications.
Benefits of the MSV:
- Compact, easy-to-clean, economical
- Micro-lever system, higher accuracy, fast responsiveness
- Longer gravimetric cycles
- Tool-free changeover of screws and tubes
- Rapid clean out of the V-through feed section
- Easy access to all serviceable components
- Modular, flexible design enabling clustering of up to 6 feeders.
- Standard feeder guide-rail options are available to provide easy access to downstream apparatus.
