Introduction to Types of Feeders Used in Mining Industry

Add Time:08/02/2014

There are various types of feeder machines in mining industry.  Here, Hongxing Machinery, the famous feeder manufacturer, will introduce the generally used feeding machines in mining and other sectors.

1. Chute Feeder

The chute feeder can be set up on the floor or lifted on the discharge opening of ore storage bin. The tub of chute feeder is about 2 to 2.5 times the width of the maximum feeding granularity. The largest chute feeder can meet the feeding of iron ore whose granularity is less than 500 mm. the general specification of chute feeder is 980*1240, its feeding granularity is 350 to 0 mm, which is the suitable feeding equipment of 400*600 jaw crusher.

2. Disk Feeder

The disk feeder is suitable for the feeding of ore fines of 20 mm or below 20 mm, which is composed of driving device, feeder ontology, metering device, metering ribbon conveyer and so on. Feeder machine and ribbon conveyer are driven by a set of driving device. The electromagnetic clutch of this driving device is equipped with the functions of open, stop and function transformation of feeder machine. The belt speed of metering ribbon conveyer is less than 1 m/s. In order to measure the belt speed, the metering ribbon conveyer is equipped with speed detector. The test bar is used to prevent the weighing roller from deflecting.

3. Pendulum Feeder

Pendulum feeder is the mostly used as the feeding equipment of ball mill and belt conveyor, which is widely used in ore beneficiation, coal preparation, chemistry and other sectors. It can feed the granular materials from storage through hopper to various material receiving devices. The pendulum feeder is not suitable for conveying dry powder materials or too large grained materials, otherwise there will generate dust pollution and clogging of discharge opening.

4. Vibrating Feeder

Vibrating feeder is also known as vibratory feeder, which can convey bulk and granular materials from storage bin to material receiving device evenly, regularly and continuously. In sand and stone production line, the vibrating feeder can continuously and evenly feed materials for crusher machines and coarsely screen materials, which is broadly used in such industries as metallurgy, coal mine, ore beneficiation, chemistry and so on.

The above feeder machines are generally used in mining industry, if you want to know more information about feeding machines, please click our website: http://www.sell-crusher.com/.
