An Electromagnetic Vibrating Grizzly Feeder is a specialized type of feeding equipment used in material handling and processing industries. It combines the functions of a grizzly screen (for coarse material separation) and an electromagnetic vibratory feeder (for controlled material flow).
Key Features & Working Principle:
1. Electromagnetic Drive System:
– Uses an electromagnet and spring assembly to generate high-frequency vibrations (typically 3,000–3,600 vibrations per minute).
– Adjustable vibration intensity via variable voltage control for precise feed rate regulation.
2. Grizzly Bars/Screen Section:
– A series of parallel bars or grids at the feeder’s discharge end to screen out oversized material before feeding.
– Ideal for scalping coarse aggregates, ores, or bulk materials.
3. No Moving Parts:
– Minimal wear and maintenance compared to mechanical feeders.
4. Energy Efficiency:
– Consumes less power than motor-driven vibratory feeders due to the electromagnetic actuation principle.
Applications:
– Mining & Quarrying (primary crushing feed)
– Recycling & Waste Processing (sorting bulky materials)
– Aggregates & Cement (pre-screening before crushing)
– Foundries & Metallurgy (feeding furnace charges)
Advantages:
✔ Precise feed control with variable voltage adjustment.
✔ Handles heavy-duty and abrasive materials efficiently.
✔ Low maintenance (no bearings, gears, or rotating parts).
✔ Scalping function reduces downstream equipment wear.
Limitations:
✖ Higher initial cost than mechanical feeders.
✖ Not ideal for sticky or highly moist materials that may clog grizzly bars.
