With a modular solution, Höfelmeyer filling scales can be used to combine processes such as weighing, filling, formulation, metal detection and separation. The manufacturer, headquartered in Georgsmarienhütte, tailors its applications to the requirements of the respective customers and system environments.
Scales from Höfelmeyer According to the company, they are suitable for use in the Processing of bulk material, The scales are used for the production of food, animal feed, pharmaceuticals, plastics and chemical substances, among other things. The filling scale with integrated metal detector shows its strength in free-fall applications for bulk goods with good flowability. It can be seamlessly integrated into existing piping systems and then fills powders, granulates, fibres and shreds directly into large or small containers, for example.
Filling scale ejects metal parts during operation
During the processing procedure, the combi system checks the bulk material for Metal impurities. Even the smallest magnetic and non-magnetic metal parts are precisely detected. The existing Automatic self-learning allows reliable detection.
If contamination is detected, the Process control a signal and the separation system is activated. The fast-reacting Separation devices guarantee low-loss discharge, according to information from Höfelmeyer. The processing procedure is continued without interruption.
Suitable for many different container types
The system and filling process can be adapted to a wide variety of containers such as Bags, Big Bags and other packaging materials. Weighing ranges of up to 3,000 kilograms can be realised. Depending on the type and size, various weighing platforms, including calibratable ones, are used. For extra flexibility, the weighing platform can be folded down into the working position. Weighbridge for small containers, which can be optionally equipped with an additional Floor scales or Drive-through scale for large containers can be combined. This enables a quick changeover during the ongoing process.
About the Weighing terminal article selection, process control and analysis can be carried out. The Scale application allows the Filling process and control the customer's filling devices. Filling stops fully automatically when the containers are full. However, it is also possible to fill the containers manually.
The exchange with higher-level systems takes place via the Network connection. The versatile, customisable system has a stainless steel frame that can be moved using transport rollers. Höfelmeyer offers its scale systems in protection class IP65/IP69K from.
