Apron feeders can be used to transport various block or loose materials from storage bins to crushers, conveyors or other working machinery in a horizontal or inclined direction. There are light, medium and heavy types.
Heavy-Duty Apron feeders are auxiliary equipment for transport machinery. In the crushing and grading workshop of large ore dressing plants and cement, building materials and other departments, they are used as silos to continuously and evenly feed materials to primary crushers. They can also be used to transport materials with large particle size and specific gravity over short distances.
Heavy-Duty apron feeders can be installed horizontally or tilted. In order to avoid direct impact of materials on the feeder, the silo must not be unloaded.
Heavy-Duty apron feeders are flexible in layout, can be driven left or right, can transport materials horizontally or tilted. Its tilt angle is 0≤a≤25°. Users can select according to the actual site.
Structural Advantages Of Heavy-Duty Apron Feeder
Heavy-Duty apron feeder complete machine and spare parts: head wheel device, tail wheel device, chain plate (groove plate), chain, upper drag chain roller, load-bearing roller, return roller, chain, etc.
- The chain adopts the crawler chain used for bulldozers, which has high strength, safe and reliable operation, easy to use, and no oiling of chain links is required, and it can be transported for a long distance.
- The chain apron has high bending strength and impact resistance. The chain apron uses lap-jointed welded chain plates, which do not leak materials or deviate during use and have good wear resistance. In addition to the support of the supporting wheel, the chain belt is also equipped with a slide rail support.
- The chain belt tensioning device is equipped with a buffer spring, which can reduce the impact load of the chain and extend the service life of the chain.
- The drive device is suspended on the main shaft of the machine and is not connected to the foundation, so it is easy to install and disassemble, and has the advantage that the meshing performance of the reducer gear is not affected by the foundation accuracy.
- The drive adopts a large-ratio orthogonal reducer, eliminating the open gear drive mechanism, reducing the lateral size of the machine and facilitating process layout. The allowable installation angle is large, up to 25°. It can make the selected equipment small in size, the process layout reasonable, and save investment.
- The electronic control device can automatically adjust the feeding speed of the feeder according to the load of the crusher, so that the crusher receives the material uniformly, the working load is stable, and the system can be automated.
Conclusion
The heavy-duty apron feeder runs smoothly and reliably with low noise. It is widely used in mining, metallurgy, cement and other industries. It is an indispensable equipment in raw material processing or continuous production, and is particularly suitable for running large and sharp materials.
