Pneumatic weighing
Weigher

WeigherA pneumatic gain-in-weight filling system for free-flowing bulk solids conveys and weighs the material, and discharges it into bulk bags. The filter receiver of the Pneumati-Con vacuum dilute-phase pneumatic conveying system is mounted on load cells, enabling the system controller to weigh incoming material at high rates, and then at steady dribble-feed rates, stopping the flow once an accurate batch weight has been reached. Pressing a "fill" button on the control panel actuates a bag inflation blower to remove creases in the bag.
