HOME > VOLUMETRIC SCREW FEEDERS & CONVEYORS > DIATOMACEOUS EARTH FEEDER

Materials such a diatomaceous earth, lime, certain pigments, etc., spell trouble for even the toughest standard metering feeders. Our specialized screw feeders let you meter materials that tend to pack and clump, especially when moist. Available in six sizes to handle rates from .28 to 600 cubic feet per hour.
