Pump Feeder
The Pump Feeder is a specialised machine, designed and constructed to accept, handle and convey products which cannot be transferred by conventional pumping systems.
With its extremely large inlet area it can accept large, heavy, solid blocks or chunks of viscous material into the pump feeder hopper where they come in contact with a pair of twin auger screws. The augers, in conjunction, with the Power Feed Roller System ensures that the product is moved along the auger chamber progressively toward the transition housing.
This unique power feed system operates efficiently to eliminate air pockets developing in the product and simultaneously pressurises the material through the transition housing at the end of the auger chamber and into the rectangular inlet of the positive displacement pump.
The product is then discharged at the required metered volume and pressure to the next stage of the process.
