Batch Weighing System
Description
Batch Weighing System – Accurate & Automated Material Batching for Process Efficiency
The Batch Weighing System from Newton is an advanced industrial solution designed to accurately measure and dispense multiple materials in pre-defined proportions for your production process. It plays a vital role in industries such as Iron, Coal, food, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, plastics, fertilizers, and more—where precision and consistency in batch formulation are critical.
Our system automates the process of weighing, sequencing, and discharging of materials into a mixer or downstream equipment. It significantly reduces human error, enhances production efficiency, and ensures product quality through consistent and repeatable batching.
How It Works
Each ingredient is discharged from its respective silo or hopper onto a weighing hopper. Once the target weight for an ingredient is achieved (as per the preset batch recipe), the system automatically stops the feed and moves to the next material. Once all ingredients are weighed, the entire batch is discharged into the mixing or process line.
This operation is fully automated using a Microprocessor based control system integrated with high-precision load cells, valves, and feeding mechanisms.
