LB-03/06 Overhead (Live Bottom) Prefeeder
Product Overview
Shibuya Hoppmann’s standard LB-03 and LB-06 overhead prefeeders are designed to handle small to medium sized parts and are engineered to interface directly with smaller style parts feeders. The stainless steel hopper helps meter parts of various sizes onto the live bottom belt. This prefeeder can be modified to suit your pharmaceutical requirements. A variable speed motor drives the belt at a speed of 23.00 inches per minute. Note: Controllers and mechanical level sensors are not supplied with the LB-03 or LB-06 unit and are sold separately.
