Batch plant � Zippe’s dosing belt conveyor.
Ongoing developments at Zippe during Covid-19 Despite the ongoing pandemic, Zippe Industrieanlagen has remained focused on delivering batch plant developments for its customers. Dosing Belt Conveyor BWS (Belt Weighing Scale) Dosing belt conveyors play an increasingly important part in batch and especially cullet systems and have several advantages in comparison to belt scales. Reason enough for Zippe to develop an own, in-house model that exceeds the performances of the products available on the market. During 2020, the performance of the system was further improved. The Zippe dosing belt conveyor was not only redesigned, but its weighing accuracy further enhanced, making it more precise than ever. Weighing accuracies up to +/- 0.5% are possible and could be standard now by using the ZIPPE evaluation electronics
and redesigned mechanical belt conveyor components. Since 2016 more than 100 Zippe weighbelt feeders have been sold and are in use worldwide, and since 2020 the redesigned dosing belt conveyors with upgraded functionality are available.
