Weight management

摘要

Mark Hopkins, technical manager at Procon Engineering looks at loss in weight feeders (weighed feeders). A loss in weight feeder controls the dispensing of material by weight at a precise rate into a process. The target feed rate is generally known as the loss in weight set-point. The measuring units of such set-points may vary from grams per second in some pharmaceutical applications, right through to tonnes per hour in heavy industrial processes.
