TMPROVEMENTS in the efficiency of the Murfitt rotary feeder discharge unit for bulk carrying vehicles which boost the discharge rate by 20 per cent are announced by the manufacturers, Murfitt Bulk Transporters Ltd., of Wisbech, Cambridgeshire.
The basic design of the unit remains the same but the efficiency of the rotary feeder has been increased to 40 tons per hour, depending on the granular size and density of the product being discharged through the pneumatic system served by the feeder. This performance is with the standard 4 in. diameter discharge pipe with the rotor blades of the feeder rotating at 37-40 r.p.m.
