Difference between apron feeder and belt feeder

 Apron feeder


Apron feeders consist of a chassis chain, rollers and tail wheels, similar to the tracks on a bulldozer. The two undercarriages are placed side by side and connected by heavy-duty track bars. The chain links are sealed to prevent material penetration and wear on the system. Due to their structure, apron feeders are more suitable for heavy-duty projects and can handle rocks up to 600mm and above.

Belt Feeder


A belt feeder is a feeder that operates using a single endless hardened rubber belt, a drive drum, an idler drum, and multiple rollers. This system allows material, typically less than 300mm, to be conveyed over longer distances at higher speeds. However, belt feeders wear out much faster and don’t take as much shock as apron feeders, and are suited to applications where there may be more liquid runoff.

Several types of flocculation tanks

The concentrator is a continuous working concentration and clarification equipment. It is mainly used for dehydration of fine and tailings pulp in wet beneficiation operations. It is also widely used in the concentration of solid slurry in coal, steel, chemical, building materials, water sources and sewage treatment. And purification. The ordinary concentrator works reliably, has low operating costs, and can store and buffer the feedstock. However, it is based on the gravity sedimentation of the particles. The sedimentation velocity is proportional to the square of the particle diameter, which is used to treat the microparticles and has low efficiency. The high-efficiency concentrating machine mainly uses the reasonable use of flocculant and the cloth feeding method at the bottom to increase the sedimentation speed, which is one of the most important progress in the concentration technology. Different type of flocculation tanks Thickener tanks , Deep Cone Thickener, Sludge Thi...

How to desilting municipal drains and canals?

The river channel sludge filter press is a special equipment, which is used to deal with river channel dredging sludge, lake sludge and sludge brought ashore by cutter suction boats. The equipment adopts the principle of automatic water removal and extrusion dehydration. First, the sludge is introduced into the equipment through a slurry pump, and after pressing and squeezing, the output is clear water and mud cake. This treatment method does not require manual unloading, and the moisture in the mud cake is effectively removed, which can be directly packaged and transported, and the clean water produced can be directly discharged. Automatic processing: The equipment adopts an automatic control system to realize automatic water removal and extrusion dehydration without manual operation, which greatly saves labor costs and time.
