Vibrating Feeder ÇKTH-115: The Foundation of Stable Production Line Feeding

In the flour milling and animal feed industries, the precision of raw material feeding is the cornerstone of producing a high-quality end product. The Vibrating Feeder ÇKTH-115 by the world-renowned ÇİFT KARTAL factory is a specialized piece of milling equipment designed for the controlled discharge and transport of bulk and granular products. Through its engineered design and the use of vibrational energy, this unit eliminates the common problems of uneven flow and mechanical blocking within hoppers.

Technological Purpose and Industry Applications

The Vibrating Feeder ÇKTH-115 serves as the vital link between storage silos and primary processing machinery. It provides smooth dosing for flour, semolina, dunst, as well as various additives and compound feeds.

This model is an essential component for the following facilities:

• Flour Milling Complexes: For feeding product into roller mills or pneumatic transport systems.

• Grain Processing Plants: For precise distribution of cereal streams.

• Food Industry: For dosing ingredients into industrial mixers.

• Bulk Storage Warehouses: For uniform emptying of specialized bins and hoppers.

Operating Principle: Controlled Vibrational Energy

The operation of the Vibrating Feeder ÇKTH-115 is based on the transmission of oscillatory movements to the working tray. The source of this vibration is a specialized drive equipped with adjustable counterweights. As the counterweights rotate, they generate a directed vibration that is transferred to the product. This causes the material particles to enter a “fluidized” state, allowing them to flow smoothly along the channel toward the discharge point.

A major advantage is the ability to adjust the vibration amplitude. This allows the operator to fine-tune the feeding speed based on the moisture, particle size, and density of the product. The inclusion of an integrated inclined valve provides an additional level of mechanical regulation for the flow volume.

Design Advantages and Engineering Reliability by Çift Kartal

Çift Kartal has implemented several key solutions in the ÇKTH-115 to increase wear resistance and ergonomic performance:

1. Wear-Resistant Materials: The vibration tray is constructed from heavy-duty sheet steel, resistant to abrasive wear. This ensures a long service life even when handling hard grains.

2. System Airtightness: The connection between the tray and the hopper is made using durable elastic clamps. This not only prevents dust leakage but also inhibits the transfer of unwanted vibrations to stationary parts of the equipment.

3. Effective Shock Absorption: The housing is mounted on high-quality rubber isolators. They completely absorb dynamic loads, ensuring quiet operation and protecting the facility’s floor from vibrational stress.

4. Maintenance Simplicity: The absence of components requiring intensive lubrication or frequent replacement (such as bearings in the product friction zone) makes the industrial grain feeder exceptionally reliable and cost-efficient to operate.

Economic Efficiency and System Integration

Implementing the Vibrating Feeder ÇKTH-115 allows for the automation of raw material feeding and eliminates the need for manual labor to unblock “bridges” in hoppers. A stable product flow prevents the overloading of downstream machinery, such as Jet Filters ÇKJF or packaging units.

Due to its compact dimensions and vertically oriented design, the unit is easily mounted beneath hopper cones without requiring significant alterations to existing metal structures.
