Feeder types
Schematic view of rotary disc feeder (combing wheel feeder), series DF
The feeder can be filled continuously from behind. The blanks must be pre-shingled manually and understacked. The rotating feed disc contains the top rubber.
When the top rubber contacts the blank, it is pulled through the gap between the rotating feed disc and the bottom rubber.
The rotating feed disc and the anvil roller below the blank ensure its transportation to the chain squaring station that follows.
