In the process of cement production, there may be situations where the materials are particularly wet and the feeding is not smooth, resulting in large batching errors and substandard cement quality. In recent years, for materials with high moisture content, the feeding of plate feeders has been abandoned and two new types of measuring equipment, belt plate quantitative feeders and chain plate scales, have been selected. So, what is the difference between these two types of equipment?

1、 The belt plate quantitative feeder (also known as the belt plate feeder or unloading scale) is a common belt scale with a layer of chain plate wrapped around the belt, which increases the load capacity of the belt scale and can withstand a warehouse pressure of about 2T. It can be used for measuring materials with high moisture content. The feeding port can be opened to about 3000mm to ensure smooth material discharge.

2、 Chain plate scale is a pure chain plate scale. The entire equipment is like a small plate feeding machine with a measuring device, which can withstand a warehouse pressure of about 2T. It is used for measuring materials with high moisture content and high-temperature materials (clinker measurement). This equipment is easy to maintain, has high measurement accuracy, good stability, and is easy to replace spare parts. It is one of the widely used measuring equipment in recent years

3、 Both devices have their own advantages and disadvantages

Advantages: Both have a measurement accuracy of 0.5%, good stability, and can replace board feeders for feeding, achieving the goal of both feeding and measuring. Without board feeders, the height of civil engineering can be reduced, saving costs.

a、 The tape type quantitative feeder has price advantages and lower costs.

b、 The chain plate scale has high accuracy, low failure, and easy maintenance. It adopts a flat structure. The measuring part adopts a fully suspended structure, driven by the rear roller, to keep the chain plate in a fully suspended state, reducing the impact of external forces on measuring accuracy; Choose a reasonable pitch for the chain plate scale, with a small turning angle and smooth operation; The chain plate scale fits tightly between the plates, with a gap of less than 1mm, and is not prone to warping. It operates without noise or shaking. The entire process is controlled and executed by a program control system to ensure the accurate addition of ingredients in the cement production process and ensure the quality of the cement.
