Rotary feeder
- The usual structure of a rotary feeder is that a rotor with several blades rotates in a cylindrical casing.
- Materials fall from the upper hopper and are filled. In the space between the blades, it is discharged as the blades rotate to the lower part.
- There is a pressure equalizing exhaust port on the side of the body, which can discharge the high-pressure gas brought by the rotation of the impeller, reducing the phenomenon of gas pushing and conducive to the smooth flow of materials.
- The drop is one of the main components of the pressure-feeding and suction-feeding pneumatic conveying systems, and the rotary feeder type.
- It can feed materials into the clinker pipe evenly and continuously, and in the separation and dust collection part of the system, it It also has the functions of unloader and air lock.
Rotary feeder working principle
- The working principle of the rotary feeder is that the driving device drives the spiral scraper or turntable to rotate.
- The material is pushed and frictioned by the spiral scraper or centrifugal force, and is continuously transported upward or thrown away along the movement direction of the spiral scraper or turntable.
- From the turntable, it is finally discharged from the discharge port or falls freely in the air to realize the transportation and diffusion of materials.

What is the purpose of a rotary feeder?
- The main uses of rotary feeders include the following aspects:
- Mining, building materials, chemical industry, metallurgy and other industries: In these industries, rotary feeders are used to continuously transport granular, powdery and block materials to ensure the stable operation of the production line.
- Dust removal system: Rotary feeder is often used as an important part of the dust removal system, especially suitable for conveying dust and small particle materials.
- Electronic industry, machinery industry and pharmaceutical industry: In these industries, rotary feeders are used for material supply in manufacturing and assembly processes, such as the production of electronic components, mechanical equipment and medical equipment.
