The high-capacity performers
Syntron® MF Heavy-Duty Electromechanical Feeders are the heavy-weights of bulk material handling and are used for higher capacity requirements. The eight heavy-duty models handle capacities from 100 to 4,000 tons per hour.*
Syntron Heavy-Duty Electromechanical Feeders combine extra structural strength with durable components. The deep wing plates form a bridge between inlet and discharge suspension supports, providing extra strength for years of dependable service. Standard troughs feature unitized weldments—one-piece, completely welded units for greater strength. Troughs are also available with bolt-together construction for tunnel installations or other confined areas. MF Heavy-Duty Electromechanical Feeders are two-mass, spring-connected and sub-resonant-tuned. The exciter unit is connected to the trough with corrosion resistant polymeric springs, which are more stable under varying conditions. The springs are compressed for improved load stability, improved feed angles and straight line motion. The spring design eliminates pinch points, an important safety feature. Exciters in these heavy-duty feeders use double roll, spherical roller bearings, with L10 expectancies up to 140,000 hours. All Syntron MF Electromechanical Feeder motors are labeled for inverter duty and vibration service, and are furnished with a cast-iron frame. Special motors can be supplied to meet UL explosion-proof requirements. Attachments for safety cables are included on all Syntron feeders.
