[[File:Gravimetric-screw-conveyors.jpg|right|thumb|Gravimetric Screw Conveyors]] | |||
'''Gravimetric Screw Conveyors''' consist of three major components that are volumetric feeding device, weighing system and a controller. | |||
The weighing system can be either a platform scale where a volumetric feeder is placed on the scale, or an integrated weighing frame with load cells. | |||
Gravimetric Screw Conveyors can be equipped with different hoppers and different feed devices to suit the application. The weighing frame is usually supported from the top and access to [[Extruders]] are not impeded. The modularity of this design and all-around access to the feeder makes this line very attractive for plastic compounders, chemical and ceramic manufacturers as well as extruded food producers. |
