Ask the Expert | Quick Change Feeder

Is a single or twin screw best for feeding battery materials? Coperion K-Tron T35/S60 Quick Change Feeder is specially designed for applications requiring maximum material handling and changeover flexibility, along with easy cleaning. These feeders feature both single and twin screw configurations to accommodate a wide range of powders, granules, and pellets, including sticky or floodable substances, ensuring optimal material flow. For most battery materials, especially sticky or floodable powders, the twin screw configuration provides better control and reliability. In contrast, for free-flowing powders, the single screw may be sufficient. The rapid changeover and simple cleaning features of the Quick Change feeders make them ideal for operations with frequent ingredient swaps or strict contamination control, both critical in battery manufacturing. The design allows for quick disassembly, facilitating remote washdowns and minimizing downtime, which enhances productivity and maintains high product purity. This makes the feeders particularly suitable for processes that require cleanliness, versatility, and quick product changeovers in battery manufacturing and other industries. We asked George Cuneo, Sales Manager, to explain these differences for feeding battery materials.
