Large loads of material with a tendency to roll require longer feeders to assure smooth, even material flow at a lower angle. Feeder width depends on the size of equipment being fed and the capacity required. Under normal circumstances, crusher feeding calls for a feeder at least as wide as the crusher. The capacity of the feeder should exceed that of the crusher by 25-30 percent to insure optimum production. Interlocking, up-turned flanges welded to pan ends provide a continuous carrier of material that is virtually leak and spill proof.
Overlapped pans provide a corrugated surface that reduces material slippage.
When optional sideboards are added, they are positioned inside the up-turned flanges offering maximum protection against leakage and spillage under the heaviest loading. Closer spacing of idlers at receiving end to handle heavy loads. Impact pads under receiving end center idlers to minimize pan deflection. Three carrying chains for greater strength when handling increased loads. Segmented sprockets simplify maintenance and are easily reversed to provide new driving face.
