I am looking to have a prototype hopper/screw feed piece of equipment manufactured. Here’s what I am trying to accomplish:
A hopper that holds approx. 2 cubic yards of crumb rubber (2” minus particle size)
A screw feed which will convey the material from the hopper through a 6” pipe coming out of the hopper (approx. 4 foot long piece of 6” pipe)
At the end of the pipe there will be a tubular netting which needs to get filled with the crumb rubber. There must be sufficient pressure to fill the tubular netting with the crumb rubber. Essentially, I want to make a crumb rubber “sausage” which is uniform in diameter and density, and I want to make the “sausage” in lengths greater than 4 feet.
The above is just a brief description; I can provide more details upon request.
