Design Features
Modular, Flexible and Configurable
- Three weigh frame sizes can be combined in multiple configurations to achieve
required production requirements. - Fours standard hopper sizes, allowing multiple hopper configurations
- Fully configurable sequential discharge options controlled by batch computer
- Three different diameter feedpipes to ensure optimal rate of supply for low and high-
volume admixtures. - Two different ball valve sizes to assist in regulating discharge rates
- Scales can be reconfigured if production requirements change.
Weighing Accuracy is achieved by
- Ensuring that feed and discharge pipes do not come into contact with weighing
mechanism - The use of triple S-Type loadcells on each scale.
- Auto scale checking on all weigh frames, allows accuracy of scales to be checked and
verified within a few seconds from the batch panel. - Scale is:
- Isolated from vibration by high quality Alpha Gel vibration dampening mounts
- Shielded from effects of wind by enclosure panels
Robust Proven High-Quality Design
- Frames are welded galvanised mild steel
- All components which come into contact with admixtures are food grade stainless
steel - Feed Pipes – Grade 316 SS
- Weigh Hoppers – Grade 304 SS
- Ball Valves – Grade 316 SS
- Discharge Funnels – Grade 304 SS
- Load Cells – High Quality S-Type Stainless Steel
- Ball Valves and Pneumatic Actuators – Festo
- Pneumatic Components – SMC
- Flush pipes and valves are brass
- Composite aluminium covers
- All other components are aluminium
- Supplied as standard with pneumatic self-draining filters and regulators, and water
filter to ensure system operates reliably. - Quick coupling compressed air and water connectors to allow scale to be easily
cleaned - Our products are in operation in numerous small, medium and large concrete plants
across Australia
Safety Features
- Pneumatic and water lockout valves allow system to be isolated and for units to be
worked on safely. - All discharge valves are fitted with dual position proximity switches linked to batch
computer; these ensure that admixtures can only be batched when all ball valves are
closed. - Automatic flushing after each batch ensures hoppers remain clean and eliminate the
risk of contamination.
Product Support
- Frames, hoppers, funnels, feedpipes are designed and manufactured from highly
durable materials and are not expected to fail - Parts that could be subject to wear and may require replacement in time are either:
- Are held in stock by Kanamac
- Held in stock by reputable suppliers e.g. SMC Pneumatics, Festo, etc. and are
available at short notice from numerous locations throughout Australia
