Vibrating feeder

Introduction

Vibrating feeders are a staple in bulk material handling operations. They are used to convey material from one piece of equipment to another in an efficient and timely manner.

Available in a variety of styles and finishes, vibrating feeders are used to feed raw materials or finished products into mixers, furnaces, production processes or final containers.

Because they can control material flow, vibrating feeders handle bulk materials across all industries, including sand & gravel, aggregate. Whether it is dealing with bulky, chunky material or more delicate particles, vibrating feeders can get the job done.

Working principle

Vibrating feeder utilizes twin rotary electric vibrator drives which are available in four speeds for medium to heavy duty applications. These twin drives all produce a linear motion that provides smooth, uniform, volumetric flow which is fully adjustable.

The equipment is mounted horizontally, requiring no gravitational assistance for product conveying. The continuous duty rated vibrating motors are the only moving parts, ensuring a lower cost of maintenance than other mechanically driven feeders.

Applications

• Aggregates
• Coal
• Minerals
• Industrial materials
• Various blending materials for steel manufacture
• Quarrying
• Sand & Gravel
• Concrete
• Cement

Features & benefits

• Control feed of bulk materials, parts or scrap from bins, hoppers and conveyors into production or melt down processes

• Rugged and low maintenance design ensure low cost over long product life

• Improved production rates and product quality

• Faster, more streamlined production lines

• Isolators with support base limits noise levels

• Flexibility to adjust vibration intensity and frequency

Aside from the vibrating unit, vibrating feeders require little or no maintenance. There is minimal risk of downtime and parts are simple to replace. Other benefits of vibrating feeder include:

• Lower production costs and improved quality and throughput by ensuring controlled and consistent material flow

• Reduced cost of maintenance and part replacement compared to mechanical feeders

• Flexibility in design options ensures a seamless fit into existing production processes for specific applications

• Safety under the most hazardous conditions
