The PPM Technologies electromagnetic vibratory (VF) range of conveyors has been a reliable and proven workhorse for the food industry for over 30 years. This unique drive design allows a lineup of conveyors that suit a wide range of applications—from snack foods, nuts, baked goods, dried fruits, and cereals to frozen and wet products.
The PPM Libra Mass Flow conveyor system combines VF technology with loadcell scales, measuring product by weight and volume. The Libra’s loss-in-weight feedback system provides continuous, real-time product load measurements, adjusting product speeds to ensure consistent and precise feed rates.
With achievable accuracy of +/-1%, this proven loss-in-weight technology outperforms traditional weigh belts and weigh chutes. The Libra’s small footprint and nearly 100% vibration isolation efficiency allow the unit to be mounted to most existing sub-structures and used to meter/weigh, blend, and feed conveyors, drum scales, and more. The Libra features a durable, sanitary design, with no pulleys to break or accumulate debris and no belts to maintain and clean. It is constructed using FDA-approved stainless-steel contact surfaces.
