Weigh systems are incorporated into handling and processing facilities for a wide range of reasons, from batching for stock feed preparation, through to accurate loading to truck, train or vessel. Kotzur offers a range of weighing systems so you can select the option that best suits your application.
Weigh Screws offer an accurate reading on a dynamic weighing (as opposed to batch weighing) basis, which can be achieved in the shortest physical length of all three Kotzur weighing systems. They are typically used for systems processing up to 100 TPH. Our bespoke design minimises the vibrations inherent to screw conveyors, and in conjunction with our control software, the signal noise is all but eliminated to return weigh accuracy of up to ±0.05 kg/s. The screw is physically isolated from the rest of equipment on site to further contribute to the integrity and reliability of the reading.
Weigh screws, like all Kotzur Screw Conveyors, can be fabricated from mild steel with a galvanized finish on the casing, or stainless steel for increased protection against corrosion. The unit comes with its own mounting frame, and an array of load cells which can be connected to the Kotzur Control System.
Weigh belts offer on-line, continuous measurement of product weight, with capacities exceeding 1000 TPH. These units utilise many of the features of a standard Kotzur belt conveyor, however include a set of weigh rollers mid-way along the belt. The design ensures that the material on the belt has settled and that the belt profile has stabilized prior to the weigh rollers, maximizing measurement accuracy. All moving components are afforded easy access for maintenance, and generous adjustability for ongoing tuning of performance. Belts typically have vulcanized splices and the inlet details can be optimised to the requirements of your facility. Kotzur weigh belts are typically constructed from mild steel with a hot dip galvanised finish and include belt scrapers to reliability and site hygiene. Due to the specialised nature of this equipment, we encourage you to get into contact with our commercial estimating team to develop your optimal weighing solution.
The Kotzur Bulk Weigher is used for the rapid measurement and near-continuous delivery of bulk material onto road or rail. Fully developed in-house, the design consists of a three-stage process: pre-buffer, weighing, and delivery. The flow of material into the bulk weigher is continuous from a conveyor, and the delivery of material into the truck or rail car is through rapid batching. Kotzur Bulk Weighers come with a painted finish as standard.
