New Superior Industries Modular Feed System Offers Versatility & One-Load Portability
MORRIS, MN - Morris, Minn.-based Superior Industries offers a new modular feed system that delivers ultimate versatility and cost-cutting, one-load portability. Its design is based upon the latest trends in equipment modularity. Producers can minimize freight costs while having the flexibility to use the new system in a variety of applications. The modular feed system is engineered with three 9' x 14' hoppers that can be separated for different applications. Its removable axle assembly and removable fifth wheel hitch are interchangeable, allowing producers to move several feed systems with one axle and one hitch. Also incorporating three 24" x 70' Superior Industries Quick Transfer Conveyors, additional freight costs are eliminated, as the conveyors do not require supports while transferring material and can easily load on top of the system for transport.
Hoppers and carriers are engineered for optimum durability and convenience. Each of the three 9' x 14' hoppers is constructed of 1/4" plate. They include adjustable flow gates and, importantly, removable hopper extensions that prevent product contamination. Carriers feature two axles with eight 11-22.5 bias ply tires on Budd wheels. Twelve adjustable-height legs support the hoppers while separated.
Each of the three QT-70 (Quick Transfer Conveyors) is designed with a main frame construction that utilizes an 8" formed channel with 3" x 2" steel tubing uprights and a 4"x 2" steel tubing chord. Other QT-70 features include a 15 HP head-end drive, a Dodge TXT 4-shaft mount gear reducer, a 15 HP 1800-RPM TEFC motor, a V-belt drive with guard mount, a 16" diameter crown-faced herringbone lagged-drum drive pulley, a 14" diameter crown-faced wing-type tail pulley, and more.
