Weigh and Dispense (C)

Building a pre-weighed material kit that is then transported to a manufacturing space for batch processing is a critical function. Providing a work space that is equipped to handle a wide variety of containers and materials that vary in their OEL specification can be a challenge.

Rheo offers several configurations of our dispensary packages. Ask your account manager how these devices can be assembled to offer an operator friendly, yet highly contained dispensary design.
