The Model TSF twin-screw feeder from Best Process Solutions (BPS) is designed for precise batching and weighing applications.  The feeder’s dual-helix design combines fast, high-volume filling with accurate dribble flow at the end of the cycle.  Its compact design is said to be ideal when limited space prohibits multiple individual screw units.

Two helixes — 1½" and 4" in diameter — are mounted on an 18" × 22" hopper.  They are rated at 17 ft.3 and 283 ft.3/hr., respectively, at maximum rpm with 100% efficient conveyable product and no slippage.  

TSF is well suited for batching to weigh hoppers; low loss-in-weight scale-monitored flow; low loss-of-weight batch applications with scales; drum and pail packout lines; and recipe-type batching by multiple computer-controlled units.  Many options are available.
