Entecon - Flex Feeder
The Entecon Flex Feeder is a standalone universal Volumetric and Gravimetric feeder for virtually all bulk solids, especially those that are cohesive with poor flow properties. The flexible polyurethane hopper has massage paddles which cause constant undulations of the moulded polyurethane hopper to promote product flow and prevent bridging and/or rat-holes.
Why companies who handle “problem” powders select the Flex Feeder:
01 Promotes Powder Flow
The hopper is “massaged” by two paddles which produces a asynchronous swinging movement causing four-way movement of the flexible hopper to prevent bridging and/or rat holes.
02 Health and Safety
The Entecon Flex Feeder contains a moulded polyurethane hopper, moulded as one piece, which means no seams or welds. The unit is fully enclosed so no nuisance dust release.
03 ATEX Compliant
ATEX zone 21 (internal) and zone 22 (external) Hazardous Area Classification for explosive powders.
04 Food Safe, Industrial Design
All contact parts are made of polyurethane or stainless-steel food safe materials.
05 Accurate Batch Processing
An accuracy of 0.5 to 1.5% for most dry materials is easily achieved.
- The feeding nozzle and screw can be supplied in variable lengths to enable easy coupling or connecting to other equipment.
- Frequency invertor 10 – 60 Hz for speed control.
- Programmable controls with timers and loss-in -weight system.
- Secure enclosure of mechanically driven parts.
- Extension hoppers.
- By using a complete spare flexible hopper production time loss due to a product change can be dramatically reduced.
