J&H Conveying Feeder improves material distribution in low-profile layouts

Uniform material distribution can reduce uneven loading and concentrated wear on screens, crushers, and other processing equipment.

J&H Equipment has introduced its Conveying Feeder, a low-profile material handling solution designed for processing plants with limited vertical space.

The feeder uses 900–1,200 rpm vibrator motors to convey material along shallow-angle troughs. As material moves through the feeder, the system transforms a concentrated stream into a full-width, uniformly distributed bed.

According to J&H, more consistent material distribution can improve the efficiency, capacity, and wear life of downstream equipment. Applications include screening machines, crushers, lump breakers, sorters, and other equipment that require controlled and evenly distributed feed.

The feeder's inlet flange can be sized to match the discharge of an upstream screen. This configuration creates a compact connection while minimizing vertical drop between equipment.

Flexible connections accommodate feeder movement, while rubber buffers developed by J&H isolate vibration from the surrounding plant structure. Full-width covers also provide access for inspection and maintenance.

The J&H Conveying Feeder is available in application-specific sizes and configurations. The equipment is intended for applications such as transferring oversized material from primary screens to crushers located on the level below, as well as other processes where uniform feed distribution can improve downstream performance.
