According to an embodiment of a method for measuring feed flow, feed is moved through a flexible pipe using a flexible auger operably positioned within the pipe. Feed flow through a metered section ( 309 ) of the flexible pipe is metered using a feed meter ( 304 ) attached to the flexible pipe. The feed meter includes load cell ( 312 ) configured to detect strain induced by feed mass within the metered section ( 309 ). Metering feed includes providing a measure of mass flow of the feed, using the load cell ( 312 ), when the feed moves through the metered section ( 309 ). |
