Metering Bin
Warren & Baerg Metering Bins help insure smooth operation of cubers by providing an even flow of material to the cuber. Ground material is moved into an enclosed metering bin. Leveling augers in the metering bin move the incoming material to the rear of the bin, while the floor drag chain pulls material forward to the doffers. These combined actions provide two very important features; the surge capacity needed to evenly feed the cubers and leave more room for incoming ground material; and very good blending of bales to give a uniform cube. The doffers in the metering bin evenly feed the material out to the mixer auger.
KEY BENEFITS*
- Level detectors
- High surge capacity and even feed
- Good blending yielding uniform cube
