Scraper Feeder Overview
Scraper feeder is usually used as the supporting equipment of jaw crusher, impact crusher, hammer crusher and other equipment, mainly used to provide uniform and continuous material supply. With the functions of lifting, conveying and feeding, it has the advantages of adjustable feeding quantity, easy operation, low energy consumption, etc. It is suitable for the application of large and medium-sized mining equipment.
Features of Scraper Feeder
- Uniform feeding: realizes uniform feeding of materials through continuous and smooth conveying, avoiding the load fluctuation caused by uneven feeding of crushing equipment.
- Adjustable feeding volume: the feeding volume can be flexibly adjusted according to the demand, in order to adapt to different production processes.
- Sturdy and durable structure: made of high-strength materials, suitable for handling all kinds of coarse-grained and high hardness materials, with long service life.
- Low energy consumption: efficient transmission of the reducer effectively reduces energy consumption and improves working efficiency.
- Simple operation: equipped with a simple control system, easy to operate and maintain, reducing manual intervention.
Advantages of Scraper Feeder
- Efficient conveying: the scraper chain system can efficiently and continuously convey all kinds of materials, suitable for handling large and hard ores.
- Adjustable feeding quantity: users can precisely control the feeding quantity according to the demand of different crushers to ensure the stable operation of the crusher.
- Reduce production costs: low energy consumption reduces energy waste and production costs.
- High adaptability: widely used for conveying granite, marble, and other high hardness ores.
- Convenient maintenance: reasonable equipment design, easy to disassemble and maintain, reducing the workload and cost of daily maintenance.
Working Principle of Scraper Feeder
The motor drives the coupling and reducer, which in turn rotates the sprocket wheel shaft. The sprocket wheel engages with the chain pin and drives the scraper chain to make continuous linear motion. Scrapers installed on the chain push the material to the feed opening of the crusher. The chain is supported by supporting and carrier wheels, and the correct meshing of the chain and sprocket is ensured by adjusting the tensioning device, thus completing continuous material conveying. The feeding quantity can be precisely controlled by adjusting the chain movement speed.
Application Fields of Scraper Feeder
- Metallurgical industry: for iron ore, copper ore and other ores uniform feeding to ensure continuous and stable operation of metallurgical equipment.
- Coal industry: used in coal mines for the transportation of coal briquettes, ensuring stable crusher operation.
- Building materials industry: suitable for feeding limestone, marble, granite and other materials, providing continuous materials for crushing and grinding process.
- Chemical industry: for uniform conveying of powder and granule materials such as quartz stone, sodium chloride and other chemical materials.
- Light industry: in cement and ceramic production, to provide stable material conveying and ensure production continuity.
Application Materials
Granite, marble, basalt, limestone, quartzite, river pebbles, copper ore and iron ore. These materials usually have high hardness and particle size, the scraper feeder can easily cope with them by virtue of its sturdy structure and efficient conveying system, ensuring stable supply.
