More than 50 years ago, WÖHWA developed the first weigh belt feeders for products with varying flow characteristics and bulk density. All components and software for the modular designed weighing system are produced in-house at our factory. The modular design of the WÖHWA blending and reclaim weigh belt feeders allows an individual adaptation to on-site conditions while using standard components.
Each blending device can be equipped with either a manual WÖHWA shut-off/sealed gate or an electric slide gate. An electric slide gate allows automatic zero-setting of the belt scale.
The robust blending/reclaim weigh belt feeders can be supplied with belt widths from 400 mm (16 inches) to 1,400 mm (56 inches) to meet all application-specific requirements in respect of flow rate, product or flow characteristics. All standard components are cut on our own laser cutting machine and then hot-dip galvanized.
The weigh belt feeders can be supplied with troughed or flat belts. The well-designed construction protects the scale from any detrimental influences disturbing the high-accuracy weighing.
Each weigh belt feeder can be adapted in length and width to meet any customers’ specific requirements. Prior to commencement of manufacturing, plans in PDF or DWG formats will be submitted to the customer for final approval. Connecting flange and chute can be individually adapted to any customer application. The weigh belt feeder is equipped with a slip-on gear drive. The motor power rating is optimally selected for any specified blending/reclaim rate (special motor versions also available).
Numerous options are available, such as dust covers, wear-resisting lining, water gutters, emergency-pull cords, sheet cover for reverse pulley, frequency converters, etc. All sensors are non-contacting. WÖHWA blending/reclaim weigh belt feeders can be easily combined with other WÖHWA components.
