Trough feeder

Trough feeders are suitable for conveying and batch feeding of flowable bulk materials of almost any particle size. The trough feeder can be used underneath bulk material containers as a hopper discharge unit and therefore serves as a combined closure device, discharge, transport and batch feed device. A magnetic vibrator or unbalance motor generates a directional oscillation which moves the material over the tray from inlet to outlet. Hopper discharge units are self-locking; the principle is that the material comes to a halt due to the lack of vibration, causing a backlog. The material is transported very gently by means of fine vibrations.
