A Fascinating Technology
Thanks to an exclusive principle of extraction, highly developed, Fine dosing system is creating a new standard in term of accuracy, speed and flexibility. How does this exceptional technology works? Take a coin on a paper sheet, and move it with an alternate movement whom return speed is higher than forward way. You can see that the coin is moving to the right side of the sheet…Based on this principle; MCPI has developed an advanced and ever expanding range of feeders and solutions. On the basis of our experience, various movements were selected in a way has to obtain an optimal efficiency following the rheological properties of powders. The association of the mastery of the extraction of powders and metrological solutions of high quality allow to reach a very high level of feeding performance in term of precision and speed. Movement is given by a mechanical mechanism working in oil bath, designed for long term operation with low maintenance needs. This reliable technology is associated with a first class weight controller for a full master of the process. Fine dosing is an exclusive technology protected by numerous international patents.
Fine dosing : Because every gram counts.

LOSS-IN-WEIGHT MICRO FEEDERS Fine dosing Opti- feeder FD-MPL
Compact line of loss-in-weigh feeders for materials with varying bulk density: The digital load cell integrated in stainless steel housing is associated with a weight controller. Thus decrease of weight due to powder outlet flow is measured at high frequency. To reach a better dosing accuracy, the feeder is design in such a way that only ingredient hopper and extractors are weighed (so load cell with smaller capacity are integrated for a better accuracy). Two different soft wares are proposed for batch or continuous dosing. The feeder is controlled with a multitasking operating system combining the functions of an operator interface, weighing controller, PLC and interfaces. The design is made in agreement with drug and food industries requests for cleaning. Technical data : Dosing accuracy (batch) Standard deviation ≈ 0.8 gram.

HIGH ACCURACY MICRO FEEDERS Fine dosing Opti-feeder FD- SPA
( A Class: resolution : 0.01 g - 3A Class: resolut ion : 1 mg 4A Class: resolution : 0.1 mg)
Micro feeders Fine dosing SPA are probably the first on the market to reach such levels of excellence in term of accuracy, short dosing time and flexibility.
The ingredient is dosed in a small swiveling bowl fitted on an accurate load cell. Sensitive parts as motor reducer and scale are protected with a stainless steel housing. The integrated batch controller optimizes coarse and fine feeding with automatic tolerance control. Fine dosing concept allows a ratio between coarse/ fine feeding flow over 30. This figure is a key point to reach fast and accurate dosing process. In automatic version, at the end of dosing stage the bowl rotate 360°. The ingredient is then emptied to the application point. The ingredient can be, as well, feed directly in the final container or box, positioned (manually or automatically) on the scale. The design is made in agreement with drug and food industries requests for cleaning.

FILLING MACHINES Fine dosing Fill-matic
Fine dosing Fill-matic series can fulfill a variety of unique applications when extreme accuracy and flexibility are requested. Without any modification, each model can dispense ingredients ranging from powders to granules. By listening to our customers and understanding their needs we can skillfully design and assemble the state-of-art custom machinery required. The feeders are available either in volumetric or gravimetric versions. The very small overshoot value, associated with a sharp control of extractor movement, are the key points to reach the high level of performances in terms of dosing time and accuracy. Volumetric feeders: Controlled with motor rpm and outlet section of extractor. For batch process MCPI offers unique control system call “Short-cut system”. It consists of a mechatronic solution which ensures a perfect control of the extractor movement with repeatability below 3/100 sec, to ensure quick and accurate feeding. With short-cut system it is possible to reach very short dosing time (from 0.2 sec) and feeding quantities from 0.1 gram to kilo grams. Gravimetric feeders: For a perfect control of production parameters with weighing system. Design of these feeders is made in agreement with drug and food industries requests for cleaning.
