Apron Feeder ( Heavy Duty Type )

Definition

PB® series Pallet Feeders: It consists of nine (9) parts: chassis, chain, pallet, carrier roller, suspension roller, tension table, direction wheel, rim gear and drive group. There are two separate chains on the chassis, independent of each other, and the carrier chains move on the carrier rollers around the direction wheel and rim gear. Pallets are fixed to both chains with bolts. The drive group fixed on the chassis transmits the movement it receives from the electric motor to the pallets via the rim gear. In order to bring the chains to the appropriate working position, the tension table is tensioned until it reaches a sufficient level by means of hydraulic pistons. Hanger rollers support the chains so that the tensioning process can be carried out without difficulty and to prevent the chains from sagging. The pallet feeder carries the product fed on it towards the dumping point via carrier pallets. Thanks to the overlapping structure of the pallets, it carries the product stably without spilling.

It is preferred because it provides the opportunity to work at variable transport speeds under changing load conditions and provides significant ease of operation in situations requiring high capacity under difficult conditions.

Advantages

• Transporting moist, sticky and high capacity materials

• Variable transport speed under variable load conditions

• It does not require maintenance for a long time with its heavy-duty equipment.

• Easy spare parts replacement

Usage areas

Crawler feeders are generally used for emptying the feed hopper in sectors such as quarries, aggregate facilities, power plants, cement facilities, fertilizer facilities, mineral processing facilities, open pit mining and underground mining, and as loading or unloading conveyors in the cement and raw material industry.
