What to do if the screw feeder doesn’t feed material?
Thread Content
As the title suggests, I’ve been working on this for a month now; the equipment was purchased from a small agricultural machinery factory. Even after taking it apart, no problems can be seen. It’s just that no material is fed in, while the reducer and motor are working normally. It’s just that the imported screw is a bit deformed. Guys, please analyze what situations might cause no feeding or slow feeding. Thank you
I have a way to handle this; I just don’t know what kind of material it is. If you want to resolve the issue as quickly as possible, you can contact me directly; if it’s not urgent, you can discuss it on the forum. Feel free to engage in plenty of discussions.
It’s reversed, or the angle of the spiral blades is off or deformed
Make sure there is no reversal – this is the most basic requirement; it should be possible to feed material at first, but once half of it has been fed, feeding becomes impossible.
Feed materials in accordance with the equipment’s requirements; it is not advisable to try to handle any task without regard for these requirements. It is best to consult the manufacturer for guidance. This doesn’t involve much technology. The working principle of a meat grinder.
It might be due to an reversed spiral axis and abnormal clearance between the cylinder wall, as well as eccentricity
If there is no reversal, it is usually due to eccentricity. There are many reasons for eccentricity: in most cases, the belt has been replaced and is too tight, causing the machine to become eccentric; another possibility is that the bearing at the top discharge outlet is loose or damaged
I’m not sure if the problem has been solved; if there are any issues, feel free to reach out to me for further assistance.
