Low Noise Drum Feeder Large Capacity Reliable Parts Feeder

1 . Descriptions:

The Drum Feeder is a specialized system designed to optimize waste paper sorting systems, ensuring a constant flow of material for sorting systems, balers, or shredders.

The Drum Feeder consists of a drum with combs, a heavy-duty steel deck, and material carriers powered by a chain with two tension bearings mounted in the tensioning station. The bearings are equipped with a grease cartridge that provides a minimum of 10,000 working hours. Additionally, the Drum Feeder features ring seals and self-adjusting bearings to reduce pollution between the side walls of the bunker belt and the drum.

By acting as a buffer for material and maintaining a steady stream, the Drum Feeder enables higher capacity for sorting installations and improves sorting quality. It reduces the time required for the shovel operator to input material into the sorting system since the Drum Feeder only needs to be filled a few times an hour.

For added convenience, the Drum Feeder can be combined with a special version of the HBST steel belt conveyor, known as the bunker belt, which features a 2000mm high side wall. It can also be placed in a recessed or concrete pit to facilitate the loading of material into the system.

3 .  Advantages of Drum Feeders :

The Drum Feeder is an ideal feeding system specifically designed for conveying fragile products that may have varying flow characteristics.

This system ensures continuous and separate filling of buckets, eliminating waste and the need for overlapping. It operates at a low chain speed while achieving a high filling degree, thereby increasing capacity and minimizing dust generation.

The gap between the buckets eliminates the need for extensive guides, resulting in cost savings on wearing parts and improved operational reliability. Forced guidance is only required during bucket emptying.

The Drum Feeder includes an integrated dosing damper valve that can be electronically controlled from the enclosed unit or a PLC. Its design allows for easy cleaning, enabling quick opening and disassembly of major components. It is a reliable and gentle feeding system suitable for conveying fragile and abrasive products in the process industry.

One of the advantages of the Drum Feeder is its compatibility with existing elevators, making it a versatile and flexible solution.

Key Advantages:

1. High capacity achieved at a low speed.

2. Gentle feeding of products with optimal bucket filling.

3. Minimal forced guidance of elevator buckets, leading to reduced wear.
4. Easy-to-clean design.
5. Increased operating reliability and decreased service requirements.
6. Minimal dust generation, especially when conveying dusty products.
7. The drum drive does not require additional electrical installation or energy supply.
8. The system features an integrated electrically controlled dosing damper valve.
