NEW Pharmaceutical KT20 Design with Specially Expanded Hopper Design

Stop by booth 1317 and preview a new version of the KT20 Pharmaceutical Feeder that includes a specially expanded hopper design. Due to the higher open area directly at the base of the hopper, this design lends itself particularly well for cohesive materials where build up may occur with more standard hopper designs.  In addition, the higher open area in the material entrainment section of the feeder  allows for better screw fill which in turn can also result in better feeder accuracy.  The design is available for both the T20 and T35 pharmaceutical feeder sizes.

MT12 Microfeeder: Accurate Low Rate Micro-ingredient Feeding

Stop by booth 1317 and preview the MT12 Microfeeder designed for applications requiring accurate feeding of free flowing to difficult to handle powders a low rates. Both Loss-in-Weight (model K-CL-SFS-MT12) and volumetric K-CV-MT12) feeder models are available for continuous or batch operation, with Loss-in-Weight model on display. This compact feeder is designed for ease of disassembly, allowing fast and easy cleaning, with options available for automatic refill.

Typical applications include feeding into jet mills, tablet presses, continuous extrusion processes and any application where expensive micro-ingredients require accurate feeding.
