Feeder Conveyors for Shredders and Grinders
Grinder Feeder Conveyors (GFC) for Shredders and Grinders
Heavy-Duty GFC
• Designed for rugged applications that handle between 600-1000 kg/hr- including whole bales, heavy purgings or bulk municipal recycling. • Typically constructed of formed mild steel on iron frames, 4-ply belts with beefy cleats, UHMW skirting, 250-300mm pulleys and large drives with D-coil Metal Detectors before the Shredder.
Standard-Duty GFC
• Designed for 1-5 tonnes/hr of shredded material. • Fabricated from formed steel. • Built with 150-250mm diameter pulleys, heavier cleated cross-rigid flexwall belts and flared in-feed hoppers to match up to the Shredder discharge opening. • Available with optional equipment to purify the regrind, including Overband Magmets, “under the belt plate” or Tunnel-Style Metal Detectors with automatic discharge flip gates.
Light-Duty GFC
• Used for hand-feed systems of either scrap parts or stringers for in-house beside the machine grinder recycling. • Constructed of a fabricated steel frame, smaller drives, under the beltplate S-Coil Metal Detector and pulleys with inexpensive smooth or rough-topped belts.
