Why Continuous weighing?

Siemens belt scales, weighfeeders, and solids flowmeters provide continuous in-line weighing of dry bulk solids, powders, and granular materials in motion.

Our continuous weighing solutions provide precise and reliable dosing, enabling you to optimize production. Combining simple installation and low maintenance with high accuracy, these systems deliver maximum performance.

In addition to belt scales, weighfeeders, and solids flowmeters, we offer: stand-alone weighing electronics like SIWAREX terminals and integrators; speed sensor options that include wheel-driven return belt and shaft-driven speed sensors; SIMATIC S7-1200 controllers; he distributed I/O system SIMATIC ET 200SP; and continuous weighing accessories like mechanical calibration tools.

Key benefits

Install quickly and reduce maintenance

Belt scales from Siemens are simple to install and have no moving parts to limit needed maintenance. Increase your productivity: the unique load cell design lateral forces have no influence on the measuring accuracy.

Control the material flowrate

Siemens weighfeeders optimize your production by continuously measuring the load on the belt and the belt's velocity to calculate current delivery rate, comparing the measured quantity with the set point to control belt velocity.

Support critical applications

All solids flowmeter models produce accurate, repeatable results and may be used for critical functions like batch load-out and blending. Safe overload protection is a standard feature.
