The electromechanical feeders or Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder from Star Trace are powered by heavy duty vibro motors and are high frequency reciprocating machines conveying bulk material from one place to another. The Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder may be operated between processes or from storage units to processing area.
Electromechanical Feeder handles feeds in different physical states like crystalline, granular, hot, cold, moist etc. The rate of feed from the Electromechanical Feeder can also be controlled which may differ from one product to the other. The frequency of feeding can also be increased to achieve greater production rate.
Construction of Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder:
The Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder is available as a set up that is base mounted or as hanging model. The drive system can be either single motor drive or dual drive or at times they can be multiple drives for the vibratory conveying. The tray unit is mounted over the drive of the Electromechanical Feeder, in other words the drive is positioned below the tray.
Vibratory motors of Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder:
Vibratory motors are used to to bring about vibrations in the Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder. The vibratory motor is a totally enclosed structure with eccentric weights at both the ends. The weights mounted at both the ends are calculated so as to handle bulk material with efficacy. The motors are identical in working efficacy and the placement of weight is appropriately done to match the heavy duty handling capacity of the Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder. The freely rotating weights produce linear vibratory motion and dispatch heavy duty loads with ease.
The frame of the vibratory motor in the Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder is made of spheroid graphitic iron and proper fixing of connections is reassured to with stand the heavy vibratory action. With up gradation of vibratory motors Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder can be used to handle larger volumes of input as the linear motion force is also increased. The vibratory motors of the Electromechanical Feeder are positions with an inclination of about 30 to 45 degrees to the conveyor. This arrangement aids upward and forward motion combined with horizontal movement to the tray. This ensures smooth and free flowing of feeds matching required discharge level of the Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder.
The trough size of Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder is available in varying sizes and shapes. The Electromechanical Feeder is fabricated densely to for the simple reason of withstanding abrasions, when unique materials are t be handled by the Electromechanical Vibrating Feeder special surface treatment can be given to feeder for extra protection. Trays can be designed to suite exact requirement of the industry.
