Orbetron was established in 2011 to fulfill a niche market in low rate feeding. With this technology we have designed 4 disc feeders that allow you to feed low rates of 1 gram per hour up to 1,000 pounds per hour.

With the growth of our company we have incorporated single and twin-screw feeding technology which has allowed us to offer complete blending and feeding systems.

We offer volumetric and gravimetric control systems. Volumetric, gives you the ability to meter a consistent volume of material. This assures a steady quantity of material is being released over time, providing a more economical way to meter materials that have a consistent bulk density.

Disc Feeders

Utilizing our volumetric feeding control we can produce gain-in-weight systems. This allows individual feeding of materials to equal a batch weight, which can be blended prior to sending to the process.

Using our advanced gravimetric control feeding systems that adjusts the speed of the feeder based on continuous loss-in-weight measurements, this ensure a consistent and repeatable system. With our loss-in-weight feeding technology, we can handle 4 processing lines and 16 feeders. This gives you the capabilities of feeding a diverse range of materials such as; pellets, granulates, powders and liquids. Our advanced system can also be used in gain-in-weight applications.

Are you still wondering how Orbetron can help you? Well in 2018 we teamed up with Mahr Metering to expand into Meter Mix Systems and gear pumps. This partnership helped us move into a more advanced market which incorporated our bulk material feeding technology with their liquid feeding technology. With our 1 Gram Per/Hr disc feeding capabilities and their meter mix technology this combination allows for a more innovative, efficient, and cohesive feeding process.

Orbetron will continue to design, create, and gain more of an impact in the feeding industry. With our efforts to reach more industry leaders and show everyone what we offer, we want you to experience this journey as well. Feeding is more to us than just a sale it’s what we’ve taken the last decade to create and we will continue to grow and show you why choosing Orbetron feeders is the right option for you.
