In one embodiment, a system for dosing of non-free flow materials comprises a storage hopper that receives the raw material and a regulating spreader associated with the storage hopper. The regulating spreader is associated with a specially configured screw feeder. The screw feeder also comprises a plurality of sections with differing flight configurations that ensures that the overall feed rate and low cycle time can be achieved without compromising on the cut- off accuracy. The fed raw material comes out into a weighing hopper comprising a collection chute, a load cell and a discharge gate. A programmable logic control (PLC) device is coupled to the system, said PLC device is programmed with a unique logic to control the feeding of non-free flow materials. In an alternate embodiment, the system comprises a huge bag handling assembly that is associated with the storage hopper and a flat belt conveyor assembly instead of the screw feeder. |
