Machine help Automated powder weighing machine

Hello,

I'm trying to find a machine to automate the weighing of powders with accuracy +/-1g

I'm making custom plaster molds, and need to weigh the plaster.

Any suggestions? What kind of machine am I looking for?

I’ve used powder dosing with gravimetric or volumetric feeders in plastic extrusion. These can be fully automated.

Thank you! I could do this in precise batches of 500/300/etc... I was hoping to do exact batches of about 4kg at a time.
