The Chute Feeder manufactured by Zhengzhou Zhenggang Machinery Co., Ltd. is a reliable continuous feeding device used to supply bulk materials evenly from storage bins or hoppers to receiving equipment. It is mainly used for feeding ore materials to ball mills, belt conveyors, crushers, classifiers, and other mineral processing machines.
This mining chute feeder is suitable for short-distance feeding of non-sticky granular and block materials such as iron ore, copper ore, limestone, coal, sand, slag, and construction aggregates. The machine uses a motor, reducer, eccentric wheel, connecting rod, and reciprocating feeding chute to move materials forward and discharge them evenly. The feeding rate can be adjusted by changing the eccentric throw or stroke frequency, allowing stable material flow control for ore dressing plants, grinding systems, crushing lines, metallurgy plants, building material production, and chemical processing systems.
The reciprocating chute motion provides smooth and uniform material discharge, helping crushers, ball mills, conveyors, and classifiers operate more steadil
The feeding volume can be adjusted by changing the stroke length or speed, allowing better control of material flow in mineral processing and crushing systems.
The feeding chute is welded from steel plates and can be lined with wear-resistant steel, manganese plate, or rubber for longer service life.
The feeder has fewer moving parts, a compact structure, and convenient access for cleaning, inspection, lubrication, and maintenance.
The mechanical reciprocating system operates with low vibration and minimal noise, making it suitable for continuous industrial feeding applications.
The Chute Feeder can be directly connected with storage bins, ball mills, jaw crushers, belt conveyors, classifiers, and other receiving equipment.

Used in ore beneficiation plants to feed iron ore, copper ore, gold ore, and mineral particles evenly into ball mills, improving grinding stability and process efficiency.

Suitable for mining production lines where ore, coal, slag, or rock materials need controlled feeding into crushers, belt conveyors, or mineral processing equipment.

Applied before ball mills to provide stable and adjustable material feeding, helping maintain continuous grinding performance and reduce feeding fluctuation.

Used for short-distance feeding of coal, slag, limestone, and granular bulk materials in coal handling, metallurgy, cement, and building material industries.

Suitable for feeding sand, gravel, crushed stone, and construction aggregates into conveyors, crushers, or screening systems in aggregate processing plants.

Used in chemical plants and industrial material handling systems for controlled feeding of non-sticky granules, block materials, and bulk solids.

The Chute Feeder is used for uniform feeding of ore, coal, limestone, sand, slag, aggregates, and non-sticky bulk materials from storage bins or hoppers to ball mills, crushers, belt conveyors, classifiers, and other processing equipment.
The Chute Feeder has a capacity range of approximately 10–300 TPH, depending on the model, feed size, material properties, stroke length, and required feeding rate.
It is suitable for non-sticky granular and block materials such as iron ore, copper ore, limestone, coal, sand, slag, aggregates, and mineral materials with feed size up to 50–100 mm.
Yes, the feeding rate can be adjusted by changing the eccentric throw or stroke frequency, allowing better control of material flow into downstream equipment.
The Chute Feeder is not recommended for sticky or wet materials because they may block the chute. It performs best with dry, loose, non-sticky granular or block materials.
