Product catalog summary
Introduction to Rotary Plow Feeders
A Rotary Plow Feeder is a robust machine designed for reclaiming bulk materials stored in piles, bins, or vessels. It operates in a tunnel beneath the storage pile, using a plowing mechanism with curved arms to sweep materials onto a conveyor belt. The system allows for continuous or positioned operation along the reclaim shelf, offering flexibility in material handling.

System Operation
The system works by using a traveling stacker or conveyor to discharge materials onto the storage pile above the reclaim conveyor and plow feeder. The plow feeder can handle various materials, including sticky ores and abrasive substances, ensuring efficient material flow with minimal power consumption and wear.

Material Handling and Blending
The plow feeder system can separate and reclaim different materials stored in separate sections. It allows for blending materials from different piles to achieve a desired product mix. The output is controlled by adjusting the plow rotor speed, which can be done manually or remotely.

Advantages
The system offers first-in-first-out storage, reducing the risk of spontaneous combustion. It eliminates material bridging and rat-holing, reducing equipment costs by requiring only one plow feeder for an entire storage pile. The system is adaptable to various materials and weather conditions.

Applications
ThyssenKrupp Robins Inc. has installations worldwide handling materials such as coal, shale, trona ore, phosphate, lignite, iron ore, and more.

Equipment Designs
There are several types of equipment designs:
  • Type A: Single plow with a single reclaim shelf for lower capacities.
  • Type B: Single plow with double reclaim shelves for intermediate capacities.
  • Type C: Double incline plow with double shelves for high capacity and free-flowing materials.
  • Type D: Single plow with a single shelf for use with coke wharves.


Conclusion
ThyssenKrupp Robins Inc. is a leader in bulk material handling systems, with a proven track record of successful installations. For more information, contact ThyssenKrupp Robins Inc. directly.

THE PLOW FEEDER SYSTEM THAT HANDLES MORE THAN ONE TYPE OR KIND OF MATERIAL. Separation of incoming materials, irrespective of quantity, is easily handled by the plow feeder systems. Incoming materials are stored in separate sections of the storage area through selective positioning of the stockpiling equipment. Using the TKRI patented retractable arm plow feeder, the desired stored material can be reclaimed independently without disturbing any of the other materials in the storage pile. BLENDING Reclaiming from separate storage piles of uniform analysis in varying proportions by individual feeders...
