Schenck's New Live Bottom Stationary Bin

Live Bottom Bin for Alternative Fuel Feeding
Whitewater, WI -- The new Schenck Process Live Bottom Stationary Bin is designed to easily discharge materials such as wood chips, shredded tires, auto fluff, paper, and saw dust as part of its cement industry alternative fuel feeding system. Utilizing four 12 inch diameter screws positioned at the bottom of the 16 cubic meter bin allows waste materials to be fed on to a conveyor that is coupled to the live bottom bin via a side bolt flange.

The bin is symmetrically designed eliminating any right or left hand configurations providing the flexibility to be mounted on either side of the conveyor. Ground level installation eliminates the need for pits or extensive civil work.

The four auger screws have a variable pitch design to achieve optimal mass flow for waste materials in sizes up to 100 mm. When using recommended variable frequency drives the auger screw speeds can be adjusted to accommodate different feed rates. Viewing windows on both sides of the bin provide observation of the system operation.

Feed rates up to 186 cubic meters per hour and unloading capacities of 15 tons per hour are attainable with the new Live Bottom Stationary Bin.

Schenck Process is a worldwide manufacturer of belt scales, mass flow meters, weighfeeders, volumetric and gravimetric feeders, bulk bag discharging systems, fiberglass feeders, controls, and weighing systems for the steel, cement, aggregate, and gypsum industries. Schenck Process can be contacted at 800-401-9702.
