MODEL TMF-3072 twin motor feeder with overhead coil spring suspension mounting Trough is 30 widetimes 72 long with replaceable abrasive resistant liners

Model TMF-1248-660-4-(2)S with12 x 48 trough and side mountedmotors

Low Profile Model TMF-1878-1320-4-(2) twin motor feederwith airmount isolation

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATIONTMF Twin Motor Feeders are designed to convey product by creating a linear straightlinemotion Two counter-rotating BEST INC motors provide the linear (push-pull) actionrequired As the AC motors counter-rotate the side forces cancel out and the linear forcesare combined With the motors properly attached and located on a rigidized trough suitablefor the forces being exerted and also suspended on isolation springs the conveyanceaction is quiet and positive No belts are required The synchronized motors provide a

semi-balanced design which eliminates the uncontrolled bouncing at shut down Finalmotors selected can be either 1800 1200 or 900 RPM depending upon amplitude requiredFinal motor horsepower selected is a function of trough weight and TPH capacity requiredAll motors are continuous duty rated at maximum force Grease fittings and heavy dutyroller bearings are supplied on all 900 and 1200 RPM motors 1800 RPM motors are factorygrease packed and furnished with sealed ball bearings

INSTALLATIONTMF Twin Motor Feeders can be arranged for either suspension or base installation Hereare helpful considerations for proper installation and maximum feeding efficiency

Figure 1Feeder trough length is determined by the materials static angle of repose and trough slope The feedertrough must be of sufficient length to assure complete material shutoff when the feeder is at rest

Figure 2The dynamic angle of repose is the angle the material seeks while being vibrated and conveyed

Figure 3The projected length and width of the vertical opening should be two to three times greater than the largestparticle dimension Materials with bridging tendencies require sufficient openings to assure good productflow Caution should be exercised in determining the vertical opening size to avoid excessive bin head-loadon the trough The projected horizontal opening is determined by the particle size and bed depthrequirements to meet the design feed capacity The minimum horizontal opening should be approximatelytwo times the largest particle dimension but not less than the bed depth required

INSTALLATIONTMF Twin Motor Feeders can be arranged for either suspension or base installation Hereare helpful considerations for proper installation and maximum feeding efficiency

Figure 1Feeder trough length is determined by the materials static angle of repose and trough slope The feedertrough must be of sufficient length to assure complete material shutoff when the feeder is at rest

Figure 2The dynamic angle of repose is the angle the material seeks while being vibrated and conveyed

Figure 3The projected length and width of the vertical opening should be two to three times greater than the largestparticle dimension Materials with bridging tendencies require sufficient openings to assure good productflow Caution should be exercised in determining the vertical opening size to avoid excessive bin head-loadon the trough The projected horizontal opening is determined by the particle size and bed depthrequirements to meet the design feed capacity The minimum horizontal opening should be approximatelytwo times the largest particle dimension but not less than the bed depth required
