Breakthrough Product of 2004 by Processing Magazine
The K-Tron Bulk Solids Pump (BSP) feeder utilizes the unique technology of positive-displacement action—rather than screws/ augers, belts, vibratory trays or rotary valves—bringing the first new design approach to the mechanics of industrial feeding to be introduced in decades. The smooth, even flow offered by the BSP significantly improves accuracy levels, especially at short one-second sample durations.
