TYhe 4198 WeighMaster II is designed to fill open mouth type bags, boxes or drums with dry, flaked, granular or powdered products such as spice blend flours, salted meat cures, mustard flours, chemical powders, tile grouts, livestock supplements and similar materials.
How it Works:
Product is delivered into an open mouth bag by an auger style feeder housed inside a “weighed” spout. As the bag weight increases, the force increases on the spout, and a weight reading is registered. When the weight reading is adequate, the augar feeder is stopped, and the bag can be removed. An optional product agitator is available to maintain a consistent product feed to the auger.
