PosiPortion™ Feeders
Precisely and consistently feed a wide range of materials
 Precisely feeds and measures free-flowing and non-free-flowing bulk solids, granules and powders.- Achieves superb volumetric performance through flexible, funnel-shaped hopper that is mechanically agitated from the outside.
- Easily disassembles, easily cleans because of quick coupled components, maximizing uptime.
- Satisfies more applications than any other feeder design.
- Maintains material quality without degradation, segregation or agglomeration.
- Versatile design provides discrete batches or operates continuously on a rate-controlled basis.
- Starts under heavy loads, making the unit ideal for installing beneath silos and large surge hoppers.
- Delivers premium enhanced performance. More automatic operation, validation and status monitoring is available through the simple addition of load cells and weight differential instrumentation.
- Warns you when hopper gets low so you can keep hopper full and keep feed rate consistent.
- 5-year limited warranty on flexible hopper.
 Features
- Handle and store hopper easily. Steel reinforcement molded into the flexible hopper flange enables the hopper to retain its shape and capacity.
- Screw is quick-coupled allowing the hopper to be removed in seconds. Unique design prevents decoupling when torque is applied.
- Get the strength and stability of structural tube-frame construction with the ability to support large hoppers or ancillary equipment.
- Optimize product flow with external paddle agitators that reduce bridging, limit material contact surfaces, reduce opportunity for contamination and simplify cleaning.
 Options
- Choose from straight nozzles, T-nozzles, nozzles with screw support bearing and elongated distribution nozzles for a variety of metering, spreading and seasoning applications.
- Choose from many easy-to-change-out auger options — flat, square, or round (with or without a center core), continuously welded, polished or milled from solid bar stock — to suit your exact need.
- Increase holding capacity and extend time between refills with optional hopper extensions.
- Minimize housekeeping and air quality problems with optional dust collection hood. Keeps material in process; makes work environment safer.
- Handle spreading and seasoning applications with optional elongated distribution nozzle. Ideal for feeding seasoning drums or distributing across moving conveyor belts.
- Use in coating drums, across moving conveyor belts or for filling wide surge hoppers.
- Alert your control system when material is getting low in the hopper. Optional level sensors help workers keep hopper full and feed rate consistent.
- Integrating load cells and instrumentation enables the equipment to perform more automatically, immediate feedback that material was delivered and increase performance.
