Introduction
Many engineers face challenges when feeding very small amounts of powder.Conventional industrial feeders are often too large and cannot handle ultra-low feed rates in a stable manner. This becomes a serious issue especially in lab testing, R&D, and small batch production.
Common Challenges in Small Quantity Powder Feeding
Typical issues include:
・Inconsistent feeding at low rates
・Difficulty in manual dosing
・Poor accuracy when handling small quantities
・Equipment too large for limited lab space
These problems often lead to unstable test results and inefficient operations.
Our Solution: Compact Micro Screw Feeder
To address these challenges, we developed a compact micro screw feeder designed specifically for small-scale applications.
This feeder is suitable for:
・Lab testing
・R&D environments
・Small batch production
・Precision dosing application
Compact Design (Size Comparison)
The image above shows the feeder compared with a standard soda bottle, clearly demonstrating its compact, bench-top size.
Key Features
・Minimum feed rate: 1g/min
・Compact and lightweight design (approx. 25 kg)
・Stable feeding even at ultra-low rates
・Easy integration with existing systems
・Extended screw design available
Flexible Installation with Extended Screw
One of the key features is the extended screw design, which allows flexible connection to downstream equipment.
Even in limited spaces, the feeder can be installed efficiently while maintaining stable powder supply.
Typical Applications
This micro feeder can be used in a wide range of applications:
・Powder testing and evaluation
・Chemical dosing
・Additive feeding
・Research and development
Conclusion
Handling small quantities of powder does not have to be difficult.
With a properly designed micro screw feeder, stable and accurate feeding can be achieved even at very low rates.
