A wobbler feeder is a type of feeding equipment commonly used in the mining, aggregate, and recycling industries to handle bulk materials with varying particle sizes and moisture content. It consists of a series of rotating elliptical bars that create a wobbly motion, hence the name. This unique motion separates fines from larger material and ensures an even feed rate, reducing the risk of blockages and improving the efficiency of downstream equipment such as crushers and screens.
One of the primary advantages of a wobbler feeder is its ability to manage sticky, wet, and clayey materials without clogging. Traditional feeders can struggle with such materials, leading to downtime and maintenance issues. The design of the wobbler feeder, which allows smaller particles to fall through the gaps between the rotating bars, helps in pre-screening and scalping, thereby reducing the load on subsequent processing stages and enhancing overall plant performance.
Wobbler feeders are typically used at the primary crushing stage, especially in situations where consistent material flow is critical. Their rugged construction and ability to operate in harsh environments make them ideal for heavy-duty applications. Moreover, their mechanical simplicity results in lower operating and maintenance costs compared to more complex feeding systems. This makes them a reliable and cost-effective solution for many material handling operations.
