USING THE CENTRIFEEDER

The CentriFeeder line of feeders provides accurate, real-time flow measurement, as well as near perfect control of flow rate and total. Whether batching single products, filling containers, or blending multiple products together, the CentriFeeder line of feeders can help.

Below are just a few of the uses that the CentriFeeder can be used for. Please click on the different ways of implementing using the CentriFeeder and see how Please see below for additional information regarding the various applications for which the CentriFeeder can be used. We have only listed a few of the applications below, but the CentriFeeder can be used for nearly any application in which flow measurement and control are needed. Contact us today!
BATCHING






CentriFeeder for Flow Control

BATCHING



For simple and accurate measurement and control of a single product, a single CentriFeeder can be equipped with a standard electronics and HMI. This simple but effective setup can be used to batch granular materials in to your process. A weight set point and a flow rate are entered into the CentriFeeder. When the feeder is started, it will maintain the entered flow rate. Once the weight set point (total) is reached, the feeder will automatically stop the flow of material for extremely accurate batches.

FLOW CONTROL






CentriFeeder for Flow Control applications

FLOW CONTROL



For blending applications, or applications that are continuously running, the CentriFeeder line of feeders also can control based on flow rate. This simple but effective setup can be used to continuously feed a controlled flow rate of material into your process. A flow rate set point is entered into the CentriFeeder. Once the feeder is started, it will maintain the flow rate set point by modulating the feed of material up and down to maintain the desired flow rate. The feeder will then shut off again once it receives a signal that your process has shut down, or that you are out of product.

BLENDING






CentriFeeder for Blending multiple products together

BLENDING



For accurate measurement and control of multiple products that are being blended together, multiple CentriFeeder devices, each with standard electronics and HMI programming, can be utilized. The units can be used independently, meaning that the flow rate can be adjusted for each unit, using the included touch screen HMI. For ratio-control applications, a master controller (or PLC controller) can be used to send remote set points down to the individual feeders making them versatile for different recipes or blend percentages.

FILLING






CentriFeeder for Filling, from 25 lb containers to railcars and everything in between

FILLING



For filling applications, from 10 lb containers up to vehicle filling, the CentriFeeder line of feeders will offer a very quick and very accurate fill. To utilize the CentriFeeder for filling, you will enter a desired flow rate and a total set point (the fill amount for each container). You then press the start button and the feeder will maintain the desired flow rate until the fill total has been met. The feeder will then shut off, stopping flow of the material. The fill accuracy is typically within +/-0.50%. The CentriFeeder can be used to fill containers down to 10 lb and as large as railcars or trucks. Custom fill screens and software are available depending on the filling application.
