Volumetric feeders, weigh feeders, bin dischargers, continuous blenders, bulk bag unloaders, bin vent filters, dust collectors, bag dump stations, water treatment feeders, controllers, and control systems for dry solids handling applications.

If you are dealing with any of the following, we should talk

- Need accurate dry solids metering for powders, granules, flakes, pellets, chemicals, ingredients, or additives
- Volumetric feeding, gravimetric feeding, or loss-in-weight feeding performance is inconsistent
- Material bridging, flooding, flushing, buildup, poor flow, or refill issues are affecting production
- Need feeders, bin dischargers, continuous blenders, bulk bag unloaders, dust collection, or control systems
- Feeding dry chemicals for water and wastewater treatment applications
- Looking to improve accuracy, repeatability, batching, blending, process control, and material handling reliability


Acrison dry solids metering and handling equipment for accurate feeding, weighing, blending, and process control

Acrison provides dry solids metering and handling technologies for processors that need accurate, reliable, and repeatable feeding of powders, granules, flakes, pellets, chemicals, ingredients, and other dry bulk materials.

Acrison product options include volumetric feeders, loss-in-weight weigh feeders, bin dischargers, continuous blenders, bulk bag unloaders, bin vent filters, dust collectors, bag dump stations, water treatment packages, and related controllers and control systems.

We help review your material, feed rate, accuracy requirement, hopper or silo arrangement, refill method, process objective, and control needs so the right Acrison dry solids handling solution can be considered.

Dry solids feeding is strongest when the material characteristics, feed rate, accuracy requirement, storage method, refill strategy, and control objective are reviewed together.

A complete Acrison dry solids metering review can include

1. Material review
Powder, granule, flake, pellet, bulk density, moisture, particle size, abrasiveness, cohesiveness, flowability, dustiness, and flooding or bridging risk
2. Process review
Feed rate, batch or continuous operation, accuracy target, refill method, hopper size, upstream supply, downstream equipment, and installation constraints
3. Equipment selection
Volumetric feeder, weigh feeder, bin discharger, continuous blender, bulk bag unloader, dust collector, bag dump station, water treatment package, or control system
4. Controls review
Feed accuracy, speed control, loss-in-weight operation, batching, recipe control, refill sequencing, automation integration, alarms, and operator interface requirements

Every recommendation is based on your actual dry material, process layout, accuracy requirement, handling challenge, and production objective.

Dry solids metering as part of a complete process control strategy

Review the full material stream
Material type, bulk density, particle size, moisture, dust level, flow behaviour, refill method, storage arrangement, and downstream process requirements
Select the right feeding approach
Determine whether the application requires volumetric feeding, gravimetric feeding, loss-in-weight control, continuous blending, or integrated dry solids handling
Improve repeatability
Reduce feed variation, improve batching accuracy, support consistent product quality, and protect downstream process equipment
Match the application
Review feeder size, auger design, hopper geometry, agitation needs, control platform, material compatibility, and installation requirements

Dry solids metering is strongest when the feeder, material, hopper, controls, and process objective are engineered together.
