Performance Features

01

High-Precision Discrete Batch Accumulation Technology

By combining batch hopper weighing with advanced mathematical integration algorithms, the NCS series eliminates conveyor belt friction and tension errors inherent in continuous belt scales, achieving reliable trade-level accuracy (≤0.2%) for large-volume bulk transfers.

02

Heavy-Duty Structural Design & Wear-Resistant Lining

Built for demanding port terminals and mining environments, weighing hoppers and chute entry zones are equipped with replaceable hardened alloy wear liners and dust-tight pneumatic seals, extending operational lifespan under abrasive materials like coal, ores, and mineral powders.

03

Fully Automated Pneumatic Gate Control & Rapid Discharge

Features rapid-response pneumatic arc gates with multi-stage stroke limiters to control material inflow and discharge precisely. Top buffer hoppers prevent flow interruption during the weighing cycle, guaranteeing continuous bulk handling.

04

Industrial PLC Control Cabinet & System Integration

Integrated with a dedicated industrial control cabinet housing high-speed PLC modules, touchscreen HMI, and digital load cell junction units. Supports seamless interface with port terminal MES, factory ERP, and ship loader/unloader PLC systems via Modbus TCP, Profibus-DP, or Ethernet/IP.

FAQ

Why choose a Bulk Material Scale over a continuous belt scale for trade custody transfer?

Continuous belt scales are susceptible to belt tension variation, idler misalignment, and material stickiness, which degrade long-term accuracy. The Bulk Material Scale uses static batch weighing inside enclosed hoppers, providing certified OIML Class 0.2 accuracy immune to belt friction and mechanical vibration.

How does the Bulk Material Scale system prevent flow interruptions during continuous high-speed loading?

The system uses a dual-hopper buffer architecture. While the lower weighing hopper is closing its gates and performing weight integration, the upper buffer hopper continues to receive incoming bulk flow from the main conveyor, guaranteeing seamless 24/7 material transport.

What dust control and environmental safety measures are integrated into the Bulk Material Scale?

The entire weighing frame is totally enclosed with flexible dust skirts, negative-pressure aspiration ports, and explosion-proof (Ex-d / Ex-i) options for hazardous grain or coal dust environments, meeting strict environmental compliance standards.

Can the Bulk Material Scale integrate directly with our port terminal management software (TMS)?

Yes. The PLC control cabinet comes pre-configured with Ethernet TCP/IP, Modbus, and OPC UA protocols, enabling direct automatic transaction logging, batch totalizing, and inventory data synchronization with remote server software.
