Automatic Blending – Flow Balancer

The Flow Balancer is designed to continuously measure, regulate, and control product flow rates within milling processes. It ensures stable product feeding, accurate blending ratios, and consistent production performance throughout the plant.

The Flow Balancer is a precision flow measurement and control system used in flour mills, semolina plants, feed mills, and grain processing facilities. Its primary function is to continuously monitor the quantity of product passing through the process and regulate the flow according to predefined production parameters.

In modern milling operations, maintaining a stable and consistent product flow is essential for achieving optimum extraction rates, product quality, and process efficiency. The Flow Balancer continuously measures material throughput and provides real-time feedback to the automation system, allowing precise control of product distribution and blending operations.

The system is particularly valuable in wheat blending applications, where different wheat varieties or grain qualities must be combined at specific ratios before processing. By ensuring accurate flow control, the Flow Balancer helps maintain consistent raw material composition and supports stable milling performance.

OZAN Milling Flow Balancer solutions are designed to improve process accuracy, enhance production efficiency, and provide operators with real-time process visibility. Integrated load-cell technology and advanced control systems enable precise measurement and dependable operation under continuous industrial conditions.

Working Principle

The Flow Balancer automatically regulates and balances the flow rates of multiple product streams according to predefined recipes or production requirements. By precisely controlling each inlet, it ensures a consistent and homogeneous product flow before blending, storage or packaging.
