Rotary Feeder (Star Valve)

Rotary Feeder

The rotary feeder is used for dosing and regulating the flow of bulk, granular and powder materials. It is used in production plants and for unloading silos, hoppers and other containers.

Design and operating principle

✔ Basic elements - housing, rotor, electric drive, side covers.

✔ Materials - cast iron, stainless steel or carbon steel.

✔ Rotor - drum with radial sectors that capture and transport the product downwards.

✔ Airtight - minimal gaps prevent raw material loss during loading and unloading.

✔ Bearing protection - air supply system prevents clogging and extends the life of the unit.

Advantages

✅ Uniform discharge - continuous operation without interruptions.

✅ Wear resistance - resistant to abrasive materials.

✅ Energy efficiency - optimised drive system.

Rotary feeders are the reliable solution for automated production plants requiring a stable material supply.
