What Is a Feed Hopper?
A feed hopper is a device designed to store and supply powdered or granular materials.
It is widely utilized in industrial sectors, playing a crucial role in automated production lines and processing procedures.
Feed hoppers maintain a consistent flow of materials using mechanisms such as gravity and vibration, enhancing production efficiency. They not only alleviate the burden on operators but also contribute to stabilizing product quality.
Various types of feed hoppers exist, each tailored to specific uses, purposes, and the type of products being manufactured. Essentially, they are designed to hold components, selectively sort each component within a chute, and automatically convey them.
