GYRO EX™ Bin Activating Discharger

The GYRO EX™ Bin Activating Discharger produces a controlled gyratory motion to positively withdraw granular materials from bins, storage silos and hoppers at any desired feed rate for a more consistent and reliable discharge.

At the heart of the GYRO EX Bin Activating Discharger is the drive that produces a radial force creating a uniform circular motion on both the upper activation cone and the lower discharge cone. It is this annular radial vibratory motion which imparts the force to the material, assuring a more reliable and predictable material discharge. This also minimizes any material stratification in the storage silo or bin and provides a better material mass flow discharge for a first in, first out discharge.

A unique feature of the GYRO EX Bin Activating Discharger is that the stored material load is completely supported by the upper bin activation cone which has a lower cone angle than the discharge cone, assuring an uninterrupted and positive discharge of the stored material.

The GYRO EX Bin Activating Discharger can also be started and stopped as desired because material is not allowed to accumulate or stagnate in the lower discharge cone which might create packing or plugging problems. Irrespective of the particle size, the GYRO EX Bin Activating Discharger is well suited for almost any size material and the rate can easily be increased or decreased by adjusting the gap between the inlet opening and the upper activation cone.

In addition, the GYRO EX Bin Activating Discharger can operate either continuously or as a batch operation with a start/stop operation as desired for any given process situation. Also available is an optional variable speed drive for fast and slow feed rates as might be required for an integrated process system, or for precise feeding to weigh hoppers and other downstream process equipment.

GYRO EX Bin Activating Discharger Design Features

GYRO EX Bin Activating Feeder and Discharger at Rest Position

A. Minimal height due to feeding principle.
B. Cone angle can be very shallow as clogging is not an issue.
C. Material stops due to angle of repose.
D. Material is not allowed to consolidate in lower cone.
E. Gap is adjustable to increase or decrease feed rate.
F. Stored material does not put any stress on flex connector, providing longer life.
G. Circular distance of activation cone creates a wide feed zone.
H. Circular motion of lower cone acts like a vibratory feeder and empties completely without material compaction or consolidation.
J. Activation cone provides even distribution of the forces for a consistent flow.
K. Standard inexpensive motor.
