Hopper scales
Accurate and efficient weighing of bulk materials is a crucial factor in modern industrial production. Jesma specializes in high-precision hopper scales, designed to ensure optimal material handling across industries such as feed processing, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and construction. Our solutions help businesses improve process control, reduce waste, and enhance operational efficiency.What is a Hopper Scale?
Hopper scales are industrial weighing systems designed to measure materials as they are transferred between process stages. Used for batch weighing, these systems provide reliable measurements for bulk solids and powders. Common applications include:- Food and Feed Production – Accurate ingredient dosing in milling, grain processing, and animal feed industries.
- Mining, Cement, and Construction – Handling aggregates, minerals, and powdered materials with high accuracy.
How does a hopper scale work?
Material is filled using dosing devices through the lid of the hopper scale. When reaching the desired amount of material/product, the scale is emptied by the chain conveyor in the bottom of the weighing bin. When the charge is removed from the bin, the next charge can be initiated. The double hopper scale has a higher batch/hour capacity, as the construction allows the weighing bin to be filled while the previous batch is being emptied.How accurate is a hopper scale?
A hopper scale is designed and constructed to ensure optimal operational accuracy. A hopper scale's accuracy is vital for precise bulk material measurements. the accuracy is often specified as a percentage. For example, a single hopper scale with a capacity of 1500 kg will have an accuracy of +/-0,5 kg and a double hopper scale with a capacity of 5.000 kg will have an accuracy of +/- 1,0 kg. Calibration ensures this accuracy. Accurate numbers and data from hopper scales are essential for inventory management and quality assurance. Reliable data from these scales help maintain operational efficiency, reduse material wastage, and ensure consistent product quality.Single hopper scale vs. double hopper scale
The hopper scales are designed and constructed to accommodate the demand for optimum operational reliability in modern process industries. With a hopper scale from Jesma it is possible to dose large batches. The hopper scales are designed for quick, precise, and reliable intake- and outloading of material such as grain and animal feed. Jesma’s hopper scales are designed and supplied with a modular construction, securing easy transport and a high degree of flexibility. In addition, the hopper scale can be extended without any mayor rebuilds if it later proves necessary.The single hoppe scale
The single hopper scale is designed and constructed to accommodate the demand for optimum operational reliability in modern process industries. The intelligent modular design allows shipment in modules of the scale during transport, high flexibility, and easy extensions of the scale for future production expansions.The Double hopper scale
The double hopper scale is designed and constructed to accommodate the demand for high batch capacities in modern process industries. The combination of weighing and after-bin allows the weighing of each batch to happen, while the previous batch is being emptied. Together with a strong and well-proven construction the double hopper scale provides market leading batch capacities and gives you a reliable, efficient, and accurate weighing system.What is the right solution?
The main difference between a single- and a double hopper scale is the possibility to start the weighing of a new charge, as the previous charge is being emptied. The double JesHopper has a higher batch/hour capacity, as the construction allows the weighing bin to be filled while the previous batch is being emptied. To further increase the number of charges/hour the double hopper scale can be divided into 2 or more weighing sections, which allows simultaneous feeding to more weighing sections.
