Welcome to Product Spotlight. We know there are many factors to consider when choosing your next bit of kit, and the aim of this series is to give you everything you need to make the most informed decision for your business. Whether you’re starting out, upgrading, or expanding, Intelicare can add value to your project, and we’re with you every step of the way from project management to UK based servicing and aftercare. Today we are taking a look at New Omap’s Material Feeding Systems.
Centralised Feeding System
A material feeding system is the process of automatically conveying raw material from a relatively central location (storage bags, drying hoppers, silos, wheelie bins – however you store material) to material receivers on processing machines via a series of pipes and valves. The entire process is controlled by a computer that knows which machine needs ‘feeding’ at any given moment and then conveys this material using nothing more than changes in air pressure.
Have the machines do all the hard work. When everything is automatic and able to be controlled at the touch of a button, the whole process is seamless. No more heavy lifting. No more spillages. No more waste. And if you’re worried about dust, the central filter and blower can be housed elsewhere.

Good to Know
New Omap’s automated and centralised material feeding systems also come with the possibility for automatic and continuous treatment of granules, such as drying. The machines work based on the ‘starvation’ method where each receiver is fed sequentially on demand.
We offer two distinct versions of automatic material feeding:
CHS300 – for up to 60 machines
Core8 – for up to 8 machines
The Core 8 is a great option for smaller installations at a much-reduced cost. Our Core 8 material feeding system is a three-phase loading system for up to a maximum of 8 receivers. Ideal for smaller installations or customers with a tight budget, Core 8 is designed to make life easier. It’s easy to install, maintain and control and it’s guaranteed to save you energy on your existing setup.
Automated and centralised material feeding systems. No more clutter, or bags of material scattered around in different places. Our systems also require less power, as there is typically only one, powerful motor, rather than many smaller units. There’s also far less ongoing maintenance, as everything is concentrated on the central filter and vacuum unit. There’s even the possibility of integrating the material data consumption, leading to automatic purchasing of material or maintenance scheduling.
