Vibrating Feeder

What is Vibrating Feeder?

A vibrating feeder, also known as a vibrating grizzly feeder, is a device used in various industries such as ore dressing, metallurgy, coal, chemical, and building materials. Its primary function is to feed and batch a variety of bulk materials.

The vibrating feeder works by uniformly and continuously feeding large and granular materials from a storage bin to a feeding device. It ensures that the materials are fed in a timely and uniform manner. In the context of a sand production line, its main role is to feed the crushing equipment and to perform preliminary screening of the materials.

Applications of ZDM Vibrating Feeder

The ZDM vibrating feeder finds application in mining, where it can convey materials in bulk. It is also used in the building materials industry, chemical industry, metallurgy, and other sectors. For instance, in the cement industry, vibrating feeders are commonly used to transport bulk limestone and gypsum from the bottom of an ore bin to a crusher in an even and consistent manner.

Vibrating Feeder Working Principle

The working principle of a vibrating feeder involves the use of an eccentric block rotation in the vibrator to generate centrifugal force. This force causes the movable parts, such as the screen box and vibrator, to move continuously in a circular or approximately circular motion.

The motor drives the driving shaft through a triangle belt, which in turn rotates the passive shaft with the help of gears. The main and passive shafts rotate in opposite directions simultaneously, resulting in the vibration of the feeder and continuous flow of materials. This process enables the feeder to effectively convey materials.

Advantages of Vibrating Feeder Machine

The vibrating feeder machine offers several advantages due to its unique design and functionality.

Energy Efficiency: The vibrating feeder motor operates on vibration, resulting in lower power consumption compared to other feeding mechanisms. This energy efficiency contributes to cost savings and sustainability.

Noise Reduction: The vibration-based operation of the feeder motor produces lesser noise compared to alternative feeding methods. This feature helps create a quieter working environment.

Prevents Material Blockage: The vibrating feeder allows for easy and stable adjustment of the material flow. It effectively prevents material blockages, ensuring smooth and continuous feeding.

Dust Pollution Control: The feeder is equipped with a well-sealed body that efficiently prevents dust pollution. This feature helps maintain a clean and healthy working environment.

Additional Benefits: The vibrating feeder machine has a simple structure, making it easy to install and operate. It offers reliable performance, ensuring consistent and uninterrupted material flow. Additionally, its design provides a long service life, reducing maintenance requirements and costs.

To maintain a vibrating feeder and ensure its smooth operation, follow these guidelines:

Regular Inspection: Conduct routine checks on the vibrating feeder to ensure it is vibrating stably. If any swinging or abnormal vibrations occur, power off the feeder immediately and carry out necessary repairs.

Lubrication: Proper lubrication of the bearing parts is crucial for the normal operation of the vibrating feeder. Regularly lubricate the feeder every two months under normal operating conditions. In high-temperature seasons, lubrication should be performed monthly to ensure optimal performance.

Keep Clean: Regularly clean the feeder to remove any dust, dirt, or debris that may accumulate. This helps prevent potential blockages and ensures smooth material flow.

Tighten Connections: Check and tighten all connections, bolts, and screws regularly to maintain stability and prevent loosening or excessive vibrations during operation.

Replace Worn Parts: Keep track of the condition of the feeder’s components and replace any worn or damaged parts promptly. This helps maintain the efficiency and longevity of the vibrating feeder.

Follow Manufacturer Recommendations: Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and recommendations for maintenance and servicing of the specific vibrating feeder model you are using. Adhering to these instructions will help ensure proper operation and avoid any potential issues.

By following these maintenance practices, you can prolong the lifespan and reliability of your vibrating feeder. It is always important to prioritize regular inspections, lubrication, cleanliness, and adherence to manufacturer guidelines for optimal performance.
