Twin-Screw Feeder Delivers Precise Batches
Compact design is ideal when limited space prohibits multiple individual screw units.
The Model TSF twin-screw feeder from Best Process Solutions is designed for precise batching and weighing applications. The feeder’s dual-helix design combines fast, high-volume filling with accurate dribble flow at the end of the cycle. Its compact design is ideal when limited space prohibits multiple individual screw units.
Two helixes—1½ and 4-in. in diam—are mounted on an 18 in. × 22-in. hopper. They are rated at 17 ft3 and 283 ft3/hr, respectively, at maximum rpm with 100%-efficient conveyable product and no slippage.
TSF is ideal for batching to weigh-hoppers; low loss-in-weight scale-monitored flow; low loss-of-weight batch applications with scales; drum and pail packout lines; and recipe-type batching by multiple computer-controlled units. Many options are available.
