B.E.S.T. Inc. Offers Batching System for Rubber Compounding Companies

Filling and weighing system helps facilitate batching process.

Bulk Equipment Systems Technology (B.E.S.T.) Inc. of Brunswick, Ohio, has developed a twin-screw, poly-bag filling and net-weighing system to help rubber compounding operations with efficient batching.

 

“The system eliminates labor-intensive handling of batching materials and ensures accurate amounts of materials in each batch,” according to a press release from B.E.S.T.

 

System components include B.E.S.T.’s MTU-4000 bulk-bag unloader with two-ton electric hoist, powered trolley and powered agitation paddles; the company’s TSF twin-screw feeder; and its PBC-50 portable poly-bag clamp/scale station.

 

Using the system, material flows from the bag to the bulk-bag unloader’s hopper. The twin-screw feeder draws material from the hopper and feeds it into a polypropylene bag that sits on the scale. When the bag reaches the predetermined weight, the pneumatic bag-clamping assembly seals it, and the system is ready to repeat the process.

 

B.E.S.T.’s NEMA-rated programmable control system and a digital weight indicator controls all process functions.

 

The company makes its bulk-bag unloaders and loaders in a variety of sizes with a wide array of features.

 

B.E.S.T. Inc. is a manufacturer of precision-engineered equipment, systems and controls for the rubber, plastics, chemical, food, recycling and other dry powder and solids processing industries.
