Volumetric Micro Dosing Machine

The Volumetric Micro Dosing Machine is designed to accurately and continuously add small quantities of additives, improvers, vitamins, enzymes, minerals, and other micro ingredients into flour and grain-based products. It ensures precise dosing, consistent product quality, and reliable process control throughout production.

The Volumetric Micro Dosing Machine is an advanced ingredient dosing solution used in modern flour mills, semolina plants, feed mills, and food processing facilities. It is specifically designed for the accurate addition of low-volume ingredients that have a significant impact on final product quality and formulation consistency.

In flour milling applications, micro ingredients such as vitamin premixes, enzymes, oxidizing agents, bleaching agents, minerals, and functional additives must be added with exceptional accuracy. Even small deviations can affect flour performance, nutritional values, regulatory compliance, and customer satisfaction. The Volumetric Micro Dosing Machine provides controlled and repeatable dosing to ensure every batch meets the desired specifications. The system operates using a precision screw feeder that continuously delivers a predefined volume of additive into the product stream. The dosing rate can be easily adjusted according to production capacity and formulation requirements. Its compact design allows installation directly above conveyors, mixers, screw conveyors, or flour transfer lines.

OZAN Milling Volumetric Micro Dosing Machines are engineered to provide stable dosing performance, easy cleaning, hygienic operation, and seamless integration with plant automation systems. Manufactured using food-grade materials, they ensure reliable long-term operation while supporting flour fortification programs and specialty product production.

The machine is particularly valuable for mills producing fortified flour, premixed products, bakery flour blends, and customized formulations where dosing accuracy directly impacts product quality and compliance with international standards.

Working Principle

Micro ingredients are discharged from the hopper by a volumetric screw feeder and continuously added to the main product stream at the preset dosing rate, ensuring a homogeneous mixture throughout the production process. The hopper is continuously weighed by high-precision load cells while the PLC calculates the actual weight loss over time. The screw feeder speed is automatically adjusted to maintain the exact dosing rate regardless of product density variations.
