PRC - Screw pump
System designed to dose hard fillings through screw pump.
The filling is loaded on the hopper and a rotating reel feeds the dosing screw, which is pulled by gear motor. It then doses the product on the next machine in line.
From a structural point of view, the PRCfeatures a safety top grid which is removable in order to ease the cleaning operations. The dosing screw is in plastic material, while the tank is in stainless steel, which eases the washing process. The supporting frame is equipped with wheels to facilitate the movement and placement of the machine.
The PRC can work with hard fillings with humidity going from 35% to 50%.
