AZO COMPONENTER® with a mobile scale — automatically dose and weigh many components
When numerous raw materials are processed for a recipe, dosing, weighing, and material transport must be reliably coordinated. The AZO COMPONENTER® in a linear configuration with a mobile scale automates these process steps and enables batch throughput of up to 10 batches per hour. This allows even complex recipes with many components to be processed efficiently.
High dosing accuracy for small and very small quantities
Separate discharge and dosing mechanisms ensure reliable raw material discharge and high dosing accuracy. Small components are weighed directly into the mobile batch scale. For very small quantities, a special rotary-tilting scale handles the preweighing. This allows even small recipe components to be measured precisely and ensures that the specified recipe quantities are reliably maintained.
Flexible raw material feeding and quick recipe changes
The linear arrangement of the storage tanks allows for the integration of various raw material sources, such as bag feeding stations, big-bag stations, pneumatically fed separators, or containers. Special docking options facilitate the quick, recipe-compliant switching between big bags and containers. This allows the supply of raw materials to be adapted to different materials and production requirements.
Automatic material transport to multiple delivery points
After weighing, the linearly movable scale collects the recipe ingredients and transports them to one or more discharge points, such as mixers or pneumatic conveying systems. This allows the weighed raw materials to be automatically transferred to the subsequent process steps. Depending on the plant design, the feed hoppers can also be filled from the outside or via a central aisle with minimal dust generation.
