chopped fibre dispenser

Chopped Fibre Dispenser

The Power-Sprays Chopped Fibre Dispenser is designed for the accurate dispensing of pre-cut glass and synthetic fibres.

The unit comprises of a material-holding hopper (capacity depends on the bulk density of fibre), a rotary valve which incorporates a unique agitating ‘anti-bridging’ system to ensure that fibres are kept moving, a delivery hopper and a feed duct, plus 3 load cells and programmable weight batch control system. The unit is operated by entering the weight required and pressing a ‘Start’ button. Once entered, the target weight is stored ready for each batch. The control system incorporates an automatic ‘in-flight’ correction system which improves the accuracy of the weight dispensed with repeated operation.

The output rate can be adjusted by changing the speed of rotation of the rotary dispenser. The accuracy of the unit is plus/minus 3% when dispensing a quantity of 2.3kg of 13mm long glass fibres.

The Chopped Fibre Dispenser is available as a standalone floor standing unit, or as a module which can be incorporated into a larger batching plant.
