Feeding units are systems that regulate the material flow in industrial production processes and ensure that the necessary materials are delivered to the machines in the correct amounts and timing. These units are used to increase efficiency in production lines, ensure occupational safety and improve production quality. Feeding units are widely used in many different industrial sectors, for example, automotive, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, packaging, electronics and metallurgy.

Feed units usually include the following components:

Feeding Hoppers or Silos: These are closed or open areas where materials are stored and prepared for feeding. These hoppers are designed to ensure an uninterrupted flow of materials throughout processing.

Conveying Systems: These are mechanical or pneumatic systems used to convey the materials taken from the feeding hoppers to the machines or processing points. These systems usually consist of various components such as conveyor belts, screw feeding mechanisms, vacuum systems or tubes.

Dosing and Distribution Systems: These are systems that ensure that materials are delivered to machines or processing points in certain amounts and in the correct proportions. These systems may include a variety of dosing mechanisms depending on the material type and application.

Control Systems: Computerized control systems used to monitor, manage and automate feeding processes. These systems are integrated with sensors, actuators and control algorithms to optimize feed rate, quantity and timing.
