At the heart of each system lies a volumetric feeding subsystem designed to provide consistent reliable metering of the target material at required flow rates whilst maintaining certain desirable material characteristics. All of its feeders are available with integrated material agitation options and specialized auger or vibratory feeder designs to ensure reliable feeding of even the most challenging materials.
When paired with one of Thayer Scale’s rugged, mass-counterbalanced platform or cable scales, the combination is an extremely accurate and robust gravimetric feeding solution that integrates seamlessly into existing plant processes.
Thayer Scale’s Loss-in-Weight feeders utilize their industry leading controllers which include a wide range of proprietary feed algorithms and simple to access functions for ease of calibration and integration with other control systems.
Material Test Center
Thayer Scale’s state-of-the-art material test center enables its customers to evaluate trial runs on volumetric and gravimetric feeding equipment, and to benefit from their engineering team’s deep technical expertise. At the test center, a dedicated technician helps customers replicate industrial processing conditions to assess and resolve any material handling difficulties.
Benefits of Material Testing
- Validate actual feeder performance & material behavior in simulated site conditions
- Select the most appropriate, durable, and cost-efficient feeder and instrument for each application
- Verify accuracy, flow rates and feeder effects on critical material characteristics
