Lafarge Brazil has often chosen Mavi as supplier for Vical-A feeders. Again this January 2016. With more than 5.000 units humming away in Latin America, Vical-A vibratory feeders combined with motorized Gatec slides gates from Mavi are a simple solution for the continuous and controlled discharge of silos in cement companies, steel works, blast furnaces, etc.
The gate which can be controlled at distance limits the proportion of the material stream onto the Vical-A feeder. The feeder acts as a natural equalizer, keeping the material stream steady, so the silo is uniformely discharged. The subsequent equipment like a belt or screw conveyors will not suffer sudden impact, which causes wear and drive problems.
The electromechanical TÜV-certified drives Vimot from Mavi ensure long lasting operation for Vical-A feeders.
