At the bottom of their rotary train dump, a power plant on the Ohio River near Paducah, KY had two reciprocating feeders that were no longer feeding reliably and needed to be replaced. - After inspecting the installation, General Kinematics Vibratory Feeders with Variable Force (VF) wheels were recommended. With these feeders, a feed range of 10-2000TPH with surges would be achieved without damping and causing outages. GK’s VF wheels reduce the rotating unbalance to minimum setting for startup and shutdown, eliminating the need for resistance braking upon shutdown.
