Volumetric feeding devices GMS Multi-flow fluid mixer • The bulk material is fed volumetrically using a feeding spiral or screw. • Agitators prevent bridge formation and ensure homogeneous supply of the bulk materials into the feeding tool. • Batch mixers. Horizontally oriented, twin-shaft mixer with optimal product flow in the fluidised bed zone. • Lower energy input resulting in gentle mixing of sensitive products with maximum mixing homogeneity. • Model series for batch sizes from 80 to 4,000 litres. Volumetric feeding Feeding capacity depends on Volume transport per unit of time. Loss...
