Auger Fillers / Llenado de Tornillo sin Fin
|
|
|
Powders and granules present particular challenges when they need to dispensed: First, they cannot be dropped freely, as they spread and form an airborne cloud of product that contaminates the container and is highly wasteful. Second, powders are easily compressed and form clumps that must be loosened for the product to flow.

This compression characteristics disallow for the use of volumetric systems as the density of the product continually changes depending on the looseness or compactness for the product in a given instant.
These Fillers are equipped with an auger or endless screw, a high-precision electric motor, and a PLC or a microprocessor to control the cycle and the turns of the screw. The Auger takes a given amount from a holding hopper to the fill area under controlled conditions.
If your product is powdery, fine, dusty, or clumps easily, using an Auger Filler may be your optimal choice. Sample Products dispensed with these fillers include (but are not limited to): Talc, Powders, Detergents, Powdered Milk, Spices, Soils, Ground Coffee, and Flours. |
