Fine dosing short-cut feeder is a good and economical solution for conditioning applications, when reduction of dosing time dosing is a must.
These feeders are controlled with motor rpm and outlet section of extractor. For batch process MCPI’s “Short-cut system” is a mechatronic solution which ensures a perfect control of the extractor movement with repeatability below 3/100 sec, to ensure quick and accurate feeding.
The very small overshoot value of these feeders, associated with a sharp control of extractor movement, are the main points to explain the so high level of performances in terms of dosing time and accuracy.
With the different versions of the range, all specific requirements get answers: With Fine dosing short-cut feeder it possible to reach very short dosing time (from 0.2 sec) and feeding quantities from 0.1 gram to many kilo grams.
Design of these feeders is made in agreement with drug and food industries requests for cleaning.

DJ-9100 DispenseJet® Valve
HIGH-SPEED JET DISPENSING FOR LIQUID CRYSTAL FLUIDS
Dispense Liquid Crystal (LC) fluids quickly and accurately with the DJ-9100 jet. Fast, simple and more accurate, the DJ-9100 jet is based on Asymtek%u2019s standard DJ-9000 design. Jetting offers advantages over other LC dispensing methods and delivers better quality, increased flexibility and a low cost of ownership.
Speed: High flow rate %u2013 20 mg or more per second with a high shot rate up to 200 dots per second
Fluid Handling: Bottled LC material is fed directly rather than first transferred to a syringe, eliminating potential contamination and minimizing fluid waste
Cleaning: Quick and easy to clean in ten minutes or less
Quality: High wet-dispense accuracy; multiple dots jetted precisely where needed for One Drop Fill (ODF) of liquid crystal material
Avoids common hidden expenses: Easier and cheaper to operate
Other advantages include:
Jet small dots that promote wetting and allows for complex patterns impossible with other valves
Weighs material automatically, the dispenser adjusts automatically
Minimal wetted parts
Automatic tip cleaning and purge
Calibrated Process Jetting (CPJ%u2122 ) ensures volumetric repeatability during long production runs to improve process capability (Cpk). Dispense patterns are programmed with a specified weight. CPJ periodically samples the dispense weight per dot and computes the number of dots for each pattern. With this data, CPJ optimizes line speed based on the maximum specified shot interval.
Features
Up to 7 times faster than other valves
Eliminates setup complexities associated with multiple pump configurations
Designed for LC fluids
Fewer disposable parts
Avoids contamination of LC fluids while feeding to the jet

Compact line of loss-in-weigh feeders for materials with varying bulk density: The digital load cell integrated is protected against corrosion by stainless steel housing and is equipped with vertical overload stops.
Two different application programs are proposed for batch or continuous dosing.
To reach a better dosing accuracy, the feeder is design in such a way that only ingredient hopper and extractors are weighed (It is possible to select a load cell with smaller range of measure and consequently smaller interval).
The feeder is controlled with a multitasking operating system combining the functions of an operator interface, weighing controller, PLC and interfaces.
Design of these feeders is made in agreement with drug and food industries requests for cleaning.

Smart Weigh Belt (SWB) Feeders are a key component used for the weighing of a variety of bulk solids in a wide range of processes. The most typical application is for feeding / weighing into a continuous process. The process material may enter the Smart Weigh Belt directly from an upstream hopper or via a prefeed device like a screw feeder.
View Catalog Page
The Smart Weigh Belt can be used as a feeder, batcher, or meter. By utilizing different control software, the Smart Weigh Belt can be used to feed material into a batch system. For inventory control or metering, the Smart Weigh Belt can be placed into a constant speed configuration to measure or totalize the amount fed into a process.
The Smart Weigh Belt offers gentle material handling, an important benefit compared to other feed devices like a screw feeder when handling the following materials:
Flakes (e.g. corn flakes, bran flakes, and wheat flakes)
Lumpy bulk solids (e.g. vegatables and fruits)
Shear sensitive materials (e.g. corn flakes, frozen vegetables and frozen fruits)
High abrasive bulk solids - due to a low friction coefficient applied to the materials
Low melting bulk solids (e.g. fat flakes) |

In gravimetric feeding, dry bulk material or liquid is fed into a process at a constant weight per unit of time since weight is a variable that can be captured by a weighing module. Consistent control and complete monitoring are possible. In principle, gravimetric feeding combines monitoring of the feeding process with a feedback loop that enables accurate material control.
Typical application:
Precise feeding and blending of materials is a critical part of the process when manufacturing reinforced thermoplastics. Typical applications require the blending of several granular materials with one or two powder materials within a compact area at the throat of an extruder. Maintaining a steady and precise level of blended material above the throat of the extruder is also a requirement. |

In principle, volumetric feeding is the simplest, most economical feeding solution available. Bulk material is held in a hopper and constantly fed into a process per unit of time. A gravimetric feed rate may be inferred through a calibration process where a timed sample is taken and weighed, and screw speed adjusted accordingly. Although there is no weight feedback to assure feeding accuracy over time, this may not be a concern for materials with consistent bulk density.
K-Tron offers three choices in volumetric feeders: the highly accurate bulk solids pump (BSP), single screw feeders and twin screw feeders. K-Tron volumetric feeders come in a wide variety of of sizes and configurations to meet your application requirements.
