Screw feeder of SEIWA GIKEN
Our screw feeders are smaller than those made in Europe and the USA. Needless to say, the capacity they can produce is less than larger ones, but what kind of industry specifications are required in the future?
These are the demands for small screw feeders is increasing, particularly in overseas markets, and they are closely linked to the following trends and applications
1. Pharmaceuticals and Biotechnology
Currently, there is a global demand for precise measurement and supply of micro-ingredients in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors. As a result, small screw feeders are ideal for supplying fine powders and granules in pharmaceutical manufacturing. They are particularly preferred for their ability to deliver with high precision.
2. Food Processing Industry
With the rise in health consciousness, the demand for functional foods and supplements is increasing. Consequently, small screw feeders are being utilized in the food processing industry to uniformly mix and supply fine ingredients such as vitamins, minerals, and probiotics. Their compact design allows for installation in tight spaces, enhancing the flexibility of production lines.
3. Electronic Component Manufacturing
As electronic components become smaller, the need for precise powder supply in the manufacturing process grows. Small screw feeders are used in the precise manufacturing of electronic components to accurately supply conductive powders and insulating materials. They are especially indispensable in the production of advanced electronic devices, as they can handle nano-level fine powders.
4. Sustainability and Environmental Awareness
With the rising global awareness of environmental issues, there is a focus on waste reduction and recycling. Small screw feeders play a vital role in processing recycled and bio-based materials. For example, they are used in the manufacturing processes of recycled plastics and bioplastics to accurately supply fine materials.
5. Laboratory Applications
There is an increasing demand for the precise supply of small quantities of materials in research and development or prototype production. Small screw feeders are ideal for supplying materials for experiments and tests in laboratories. Their precision and reliability are especially valued in research and development processes where reproducibility is essential.
Given these trends, the demand for small screw feeders is expected to continue to grow in the future. As manufacturing becomes more advanced, more companies are likely to focus on this technology.
