The apron feeder is used in the lead-zinc ore processing project in Nigeria. The raw ore is uniformly fed into the subsequent primary jaw crusher to ensure the uniform feeding. According to the geographical conditions, our company customized the apron feeder with the center distance of 3500mm, and specified the reasonable installation angle.
A variety of sizes and types make our pan feeders suitable for the constant feeding of crushers and screens after the primary crushing stage. Both base mounted and suspended models with large drive units and proper feed chutes are designed to make high feed rates even of coarse materials possible.
Apron feeders. Apron feeders are used where extremely rugged machines handling large feed are required. They are also used to handle muddy or sticky material. Normally located ahead of large, stationary primary crushers.
tonnage and are most commonly utilized in conjunction with an apron or pan feeder, ahead of the primary crusher. They are typically chosen when excessive clay or an abundance of fines are present making them capable of efficient scalping in the most difficult applications. Available in sizes ranging from 4'' x 10'' (1,219mm x 3,048mm to
feeder pans. The modern apron feeder with tractor chain is known to provide very long life and is trouble-free. The apron feeder can be speed controlled to match the primary crusher capacity. Apron feeders are often followed by a heavy-duty scalping screen to separate products or to remove deleterious materials. The scalping screen allows

Continue reading part 2 where we discuss proper sizing and selection of your apron feeder, or part 3 where we analyze what to do before and after
indurad radar sensors in its iCrusher offering enable real- time measurement of the crusher or apron feeder levels in harsh environmental conditions, thereby allowing automatic feeder control.. On the interface between mine and mill are the primary crusher installations, which are typically the first bottleneck of large mining operations.
Metso''s Primary Apron Feeder in action.
Apron Feeder Advantage DSMAC apron feeder is engineered for heavy-duty operation and for primary or subsequent application stages. These custom-built machines are designed to suit individual requirements of capacity, size and material handled.
Apron feeders or grizzlies are generally used to feed quarry rock into a primary crusher. They are of a heavy-duty construction to take the shock from rocks dumped directly on them. To cushion the blow of material dumped on the feeder, a large hopper may be used to receive the dumped loads. The apron feeder consists of a series of overlapping
This may be done by means of a feeder or gate to the bin above the machine or by a heavy chain, a pan feeder, a shaking grizzly, or an apron feeder, which occupy little head space. The objective is to ensure a regular feed to keep the crusher steadily occupied and thus flatten the power curve. Figure 8 shows an apron feeder-jaw crusher arrangement.
Osborn apron feeders accurately control the feed rate to prevent surge loads to the primary crusher or other processing equipment. These feeders feature a rugged, heavy-duty construction and are designed to handle feed sizes of up to 60” (1,500 mm) where no fines removal is required or where fines are removed by a separate vibrating grizzly.
Crusher or Gyratory/ Cone Crusher. It is also efficient in withdrawing material from under stockpile with heavy column load or from under a Primary Crusher as well. Apron Feeders are normal y employed for heavy duty application. For lighter duty Apron Conveyors are used. Apron Feeder is the best solution for wet, sticky and
Figure 1
Feeder Breakers. Williams Heavy Duty Feeder Breaker couples our manganese Apron Feeder with our Roll Crusher technology. This results in an extremely heavy duty machine. Williams Feeder Breakers are capable of conveying and crushing a wide range of minerals including frozen concentrates, coal, shale, clay, and more down to 6” and smaller.
Crushing Plant: Apron feeder, Metso C160, Sandvik S6800 and Two CH660''s, plus rock screens. Manufacturer: Metso; Crushing plant with apron feeder, primary, secondary, and tertiary crushers, plus rock screens: Primary Crusher:
2 Truck dump hoppers utilize the World Class Apron Feeder to withdraw rock and ore at a controlled rate of speed to feed other equipment such as impact crushers or vibrating grizzlies. 3 Metso Minerals manufacturers Apron Feeders of various size, tonnage and drive configurations to meet the specific application and customer requirements.
The maximum processing capacity is 1600tph, and the maximum feeding size is 1.5m, which can meet the maximum pressure of the silo below 80m³. It is suitable for feeding jaw crushers and primary impact crushers. Grizzly feeder has a pre-screening function and can provide 1, 2, 3 and 4 bars to meet different application requirements.
Materials are conveyed along the pan of the feeder as a result of the vibrating motion imparted to the particles. This vibration pre-sorts the material passing the fines to the bottom. The fines can then be pre-screened before a crusher, thus reducing the required capacity and wear. Vibrating Grizzly Feeders are smaller in size than Apron
Primary Horizontal Impact Crusher. Apron feeder 21 March, 2017. Primary Horizontal Impact Crusher. The large reduction ratio of 20 to 1, its large inlet, and the cubic shape of the product provided by the impact, make this Crusher the ideal machine for your quarry. Suitable for materials of medium hardness and abrasiveness, and high volumes of
Apron Feeders can be thought as another option for primary feeding machines. It eliminates disadvantages of vibrating feeders. Although they run with slow speeds, they have high feed rates. Apron Feeders are commonly preferred and used in mining applications. But they are recently becoming more
Apron feeders are a common method for controlled feeding of material. Often, they are located below a primary jaw or gyratory crusher, stockpile or rail unloading station. Dozer chain is typically used for its strength and reliability. PPI apron feeder shafts are currently used in copper, gold, cement and other types of mining operations. PPI

INDUSTRY. HAZEMAG’s HAF Apron Feeders are used for feed hopper discharging in primary crushing plants, and as a loading or discharging conveyor in, for example, the cement and raw material industry. HAZEMAG Apron Feeders provide capacities of up to 4,000 t/h with piece sizes up to 3m 3. When selecting a suitable hopper discharge unit, it is
Primary crusher feeds, which scalp and feed in one operation, have been developed, such as the vibrating grizzly feeder (Chapter 8). The elliptical bar feeder ( Figure 2.14 ) consists of elliptical bars of steel which form the bottom of a receiving hopper and are set with the long axes of the ellipses in alternate vertical and horizontal positions.
Apron Feeders are generally used as a primary or bin feeder application designed for varying applications, from light-duty to severe-duty, from low tonnage to high tonnage of material. They are the feeder of choice for reliability, high uptime and high returns on capital, and are designed for decades of service.
the feed rate to prevent surge loads to the Primary Crusher or other plant equipment. An Apron Feeder is run at very low speeds and at a controlled feed rate as it absorbs the impact loads of the material falling from a dump truck or a front-end loader and is ideal for withdrawing material from under a stockpile or from under a Primary Crusher
