An automated plant-wide weigh batching systemengineered by Flexiconsimultaneously weighs up to seven major ingredients received in bulk bags and unlimited minor ingredients received in 50-pound (23 kilogram) sacks, pails or boxes. The system conveys weighed batches to a downstream blender that feeds a bulk bag filler and a paper sack filling machine. The filter receiver discharges weighed material into a mezzanine-level, high-capacity blender mounted on load cells, providing confirmation of final batch weight. Blended batches are gravity discharged into the paper sack filling machine or the bulk bag filler, both at floor level.
