Mechanical design of the device is based on cylindrical vibrating feeder with conical or stepped storage bin offered in stainless steel version. Due to application in pharmaceutical industry, the feeder’s storage bin is continuously welded both inside and outside. The feeder is appropriate for dosing pills of diameter ranging from 3 to 25 mm, round and oblong, as well as details of similar shapes and dimensions. Pills or other elements are led along the axis.
The device is equipped with powder-coated steel housing and stainless steel cover. The storage bin features transparent cover that allows verifying quantity of remaining elements.
RADWAG-manufactured Y series laboratory balances enable control over PA-04/H feeder. The balance controls dosing start and stop, and adjusts objects feeding frequency. The elements dispensed to the balance (e.g.: pills) are weighed and statistically assessed. The feeder dispenses next object as soon as it receives an adequate command from the balance. PA-04/H features diodes indicating connection to the mains, device operation and vibration level. Additionally, feeder's keyboard enables emptying the storage bin and adjusting the frequency of elements dosing by changing the vibration level.
Feeder-balance cooperation is enabled by Mass control mode.
PA-04/H cooperates with the following laboratory balances:
