Redefining Micro Dosing for Modern Manufacturing

Looking for a low-dosing feeding system that delivers accurate, repeatable performance with a strong emphasis on hygiene and adaptability?
When it comes to handling powders in highly regulated environments, precision and hygiene are non-negotiable. Trantec Micro Screw Feeders are purpose-built for industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and laboratory research, where accurate, low-rate dosing is critical. Their durable construction, hygienic design, and precise feed control ensure consistent, contamination-free performance, making them a reliable solution for modern, compliance-driven operations.

Uniform Dosing for Critical Powder Handling

Micro-dosing isn’t just about dispensing small amounts; it demands accuracy, repeatability, and consistency, even with materials that flow poorly or inconsistently. Trantec Micro Screw Feeders achieve dosing rates as low as fractions of a gram per minute, making them ideal for APIs, fine powders, specialty additives, and other high-value ingredients. Their hygienic design and precision-tuned auger ensure dependable performance in even the most demanding environments.

Modular Interchangeable Auger Systems

Not all powders behave the same; some flow freely, while others can be sticky, clumpy, or ultra-fine. To address these differences, Trantec, in collaboration with its specialist division, Augers UK, has developed a modular system featuring interchangeable augers designed to suit a wide range of materials. These augers are available in diameters ranging from 4 mm to 12 mm and can feature variable pitch and flight designs, depending on the application. The modular setup allows you to easily swap out augers to match the specific characteristics of the powder you’re working with, ensuring optimal flow and reliable performance.

Designed for Hygiene, Built for Compliance

In industries where cleanability is essential and cross-contamination can be detrimental, such as pharmaceuticals and food processing, equipment must meet strict hygiene standards. Trantec micro screw feeders are designed for this purpose, featuring tool-free dismantling and quick-release components that allow for complete disassembly and cleaning in minutes. Their polished stainless-steel surfaces, with optional mirror finishes, help prevent powder build-up and make cleaning faster and easier. This makes them ideal for use in clean, controlled environments where hygiene is a top priority.

Supporting Critical Processes in Regulated Environments

Trantec micro feeders are small, yet they play a crucial role in maintaining product quality. Their ability to deliver small, accurate doses is critical to applications such as drug development, supplement production, cosmetics, and laboratory work. As standards become stricter, having a reliable and hygienic dosing system becomes increasingly important.

With over 30 years of experience, Trantec has built a reputation for practical and reliable powder handling equipment. In addition to screw feeders, their product range includes flexible screw conveyors, sack tip stations, powder samplers, and more, offering complete solutions for accurate, hygienic, and efficient material transfer. Trusted by pharmaceutical, food, plastics, and chemical industries worldwide, Trantec systems are designed for ease of cleaning, compliance, and consistent performance in demanding environments.
