A practical evidence checklist for RFQ preparation and supplier evaluation.
CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
According to directory reference data, the hopper capacity ranges from 0.5 to 5 cubic meters. This determines the batch size and the footprint of the equipment. The exact capacity for a specific model must be confirmed with the manufacturer.
Weighing accuracy is typically ±0.1% to ±0.5%, referencing OIML R76. This accuracy is critical for formulations requiring precise ratios. However, the actual accuracy achieved depends on installation, calibration, and environmental conditions, so it must be verified with the supplier.
Common materials include stainless steel (304/316), carbon steel, and abrasion-resistant liner materials. The choice depends on the abrasiveness and corrosiveness of the filler. For corrosive materials, 316 stainless steel is often specified, but always confirm with the manufacturer.
The power supply is three-phase 220–380 V AC, with power consumption including vibrators and controls ranging from 0.5 to 2 kW. These are reference values; the actual requirements for a specific hopper should be obtained from the technical datasheet.
