MULTIDOS® VDP
An apron weighfeeder for poor-flowing materials -
because there's no such word as "impossible"
Schenck Process apron weighfeeders are used for continuous gravimetric feeding of
poorly flowing bulk materials from silos. The MULTIDOS® system makes the
impossible possible: it reliably feeds even "sticky" materials such as clay, marl, trass
or sludge with the high accuracy a weighfeeder can provide. Extraction apron
feeders used as prefeeders for conventional weighfeeders or volumetric prefeeders
are no longer needed. Weighing technology integrated in the track allows VDP
apron weighfeeders to perform both silo discharge and gravimetric feeding
functions. This results in signifcantly better feeding accuracy compared with
volumetric extraction apron feeders, which ultimately means a stable, repeatable
improvement in quality in the mixing plants and an excellent return on investment.
Possible Applications
HI Charging of raw and cement mills in cement plants
0 Feeding of bauxite in aluminum plants
H Feeding of poor-flowing materials in mines and quarries
H Feeding of returns/sludges in metallurgical plants
