Gravimetric dosing systems

Precise and reliable dosing of liquids and solids. Precise weighing technology ensures exact weight measurement of the dosing materials and delivers optimum results, even with small quantities of material.

Gravimetric dosing systems such as the IFA-Gravimet are ideal for applications in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food and plastics industries where high accuracy and efficiency are crucial.

Perfect accuracy through weight measurement

Gravimetric dosing is based on the principle of weight measurement and offers superior accuracy compared to volumetric dosing systems. This is particularly important in critical production processes where even the smallest deviations in dosing can have a significant impact on product quality and production costs.

The exact weight measurement of the materials ensures a constant dosing rate that is independent of density deviations or other physical properties of the materials.

An outstanding feature of IFA dosing systems is their flexibility and versatility. These systems are designed to be suitable for both small and large production volumes. The systems are available in various configurations that can be adapted to specific production requirements.

Functions such as parallel dosing of several substances simultaneously, automatic density adjustment and integrated recipe management offer a high level of efficiency and flexibility, which is reflected in shorter production times and better cost control.

Examples for critical production processes

  • Chemical synthesis: avoidance of dangerous reactions or undesirable by-products
  • Pharmaceutical production: Reliable efficacy and safety of medicines
  • Food production: Consistent quality, consistency and taste
  • Plastics production: Perfect material properties - no uncontrolled curing
  • Building materials industry: Consistent strength and durability of cement and concrete

Features

  • Precise weight measurement: Thanks to high-precision weighing cells, the exact weight of the dosing materials is determined, ensuring unparalleled dosing accuracy.
  • Parallel dosing: Several substances can be dosed simultaneously and independently of each other, significantly optimizing production processes.
  • Automatic compensation of density deviations: The system automatically compensates for variations in the density of liquids to achieve consistent dosing results.
  • Integrated recipe management: Different recipes can be stored and quickly retrieved, allowing easy adjustment of the dosing.
  • Consumption data recording: The system continuously records material consumption, enabling precise planning and control of production costs.
  • Batch traceability: All dosing processes are documented, which ensures complete batch traceability and therefore meets the highest quality and safety requirements. gravimetric dosing systems

Frequently asked questions

What dosing accuracy can be achieved with a gravimetric dosing system from IFA Technology?

The systems offer a dosing accuracy of less than +/- 0.5 %. In special applications, such as pharmaceutical production, accuracies of up to +/- 0.1 % are even possible.

How to clean the system?

IFA dosing systems are designed for easy cleaning. Many models have a fully automatic cleaning program. CIP systems (Cleaning in Place) can be integrated to minimize downtimes.

Why are the batch sizes per mixture so small, while the output per hour is still high?

The gravimetric dosing system enables precise dosing even with small quantities, while parallel dosing and automatic control ensure high production rates per hour.

Is the IFA Gravimet system suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres?

Yes, our systems are specially optimized for use in hazardous areas and meet all relevant safety standards for explosive environments.
