Dosing silo (also known as a batching silo) is a critical component in industrial material handling systems, designed for the efficient storage, metering, and dispensing of bulk materials such as powders, granules, or liquids. These silos are widely used in industries like food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and construction, where precise ingredient proportions are essential for product quality and consistency.

A rotary valve, also known as a rotary feeder or star-shaped discharge valve, is a precision material handling device designed for controlled dispensing of bulk materials such as powders, granules, or dry bulk solids. It consists of a rotating rotor with multiple vanes housed within a cylindrical casing, ensuring accurate metering and seamless integration into industrial material flow systems. The valve operates by continuously rotating the vanes to create individual compartments, which fill with material from the inlet and discharge it at the outlet in a controlled manner.

A loss-in-weight feeder (LIW feeder) is a precision dosing system designed for continuous and accurate material dispensing in industrial processes. It operates by measuring the weight loss of a material hopper over time, using this data to control the feed rate dynamically. The system typically consists of a load cell-equipped hopper, a feeding mechanism (such as a screw or vibratory tray), and a control unit that adjusts the motor speed based on real-time weight measurements.
