In any aggregate or mining operation, consistency is everything. That’s especially true when it comes to feeding material into your crushers. At Apache Ironworks, we know even the most advanced crushing lines rely on a well-matched feeder to perform at peak efficiency. It’s the first step in your processing line, and it sets the tone for everything that follows.
Why Feeders Matter
Feeders regulate the flow of raw material into crushers and screens. Too fast, and you risk overloading or uneven wear. Too slow and you sacrifice output. Apache feeders are engineered to deliver steady, controlled flow rates that help maintain crusher efficiency and prolong the life of wear components.
Feeder Types and Features
Our feeders come in a variety of configurations depending on your material type and production demands:
- Grizzly Feeders: Built for abrasive or heavy material, with adjustable spacing to screen out fines before they reach the crusher, protecting equipment and improving throughput.
- Vibrating Feeders: Deliver smooth, continuous flow and are ideal for modular and mobile setups.
- Belt Feeders: Great for lower-impact loads and controlled delivery to secondary equipment.
Reducing Downtime
Apache feeders are built to handle shock loads and abrasive materials, which reduces wear and unplanned shutdowns. Paired with remote monitoring and hydraulic control systems, they also offer greater control over feed rates and reduce manual intervention.
Designed for Mobility
Whether integrated into a fully mobile crushing unit or a modular plant, our feeders are built for fast setup and easy transport. They align seamlessly with Apache’s crushers and screens to create a complete material handling system.
Why Quality Feeders Pay Off
Investing in a high-quality feeder maximizes plant uptime, protects downstream equipment, and keeps your production on track. At Apache Ironworks, we work closely with each customer to configure feeders that meet the exact demands of their operation.
