Before manufacturing pans, chains or drive parts, check complete model, serial number, chain pitch, effective width, general arrangement, component drawings and drawing revision.

Wear Parts

Receiving and Conveying Wear Parts

Separate pans, receiving-area impact plates, side liners, head and tail liners, and return drip pans by position, with links to common-part and material pages.

Generic apron feeder pan for part identification
01

Apron Pans / Feeder Plates

Apron Pan / Feeder Plate

Continuously receive large-lump impact and form the conveying surface. Confirm pan width, section, connecting holes, overlap and chain pitch against the D type and drawings.

Material selection: MMD specifies heavy-duty rolled plate construction. Confirm base material, welding, wear layers and heat treatment against original drawings and impact conditions.

Generic receiving-area impact plate
02

Receiving-Area Impact Plates

Impact Plate

At direct-tipping and impact-attenuation positions, these protect the main structure and spread lump impact. Confirm profile, thickness and retention by location.

Material selection: Prioritize impact toughness, resistance to plastic deformation and replaceability. Confirm grade and composite construction against service conditions and drawings.

Generic apron feeder side or skirt liner
03

Side / Skirt Liners

Side Liner / Skirt Liner

Along both sides of the conveying path, liners contain material and protect walls. Check mounting holes, overlaps, clearances and relative motion with the pans together.

Material selection: Select wear plate or replaceable cast liners for sliding abrasion, lump impact and thickness limits.

Generic head discharge chute liner
04

Head Discharge Chute Liners

Head Discharge Chute Liner

At the head discharge and flow-turning area, liners withstand impact and sliding abrasion. Confirm material trajectory, liner zones, connections and replacement access.

Material selection: Select wear plate, composites or local reinforcement for the balance of impact and sliding abrasion.

Generic tail inlet liner
05

Tail Inlet Liners

Tail Inlet Liner

Protect the tail feed and drop-zone boundaries. Check drop height, lump size, flow direction and clearance to adjoining moving pans.

Material selection: Select material and thickness together for impact energy, abrasiveness, structural support and replacement interval.

Generic return drip pan liner
06

Return Drip Pan Liners

Drip Pan Liner

Below the return run, pans collect spillage and protect the bottom structure. Confirm shape, joints, discharge direction and cleaning access against the machine layout.

Material selection: Sliding abrasion and maintainability usually dominate. Confirm materials against original drawings, handled material and service-life requirements.

Spare Parts

Chains, Sprockets, Support Rollers and Tensioning Spares

Drive parts are listed separately. Chain pitch, pin/bushing fits, sprocket tooth profiles and roller bearings must be checked together for the same machine.

Generic apron feeder chain link
01

Chain Links

Chain Link

Core traction-chain members transmit continuous tension and impact loads. Confirm pitch, hole spacing, plate thickness, heat treatment and matched-set requirements.

Material selection: Follow original drawings and design loads for link material, forging or casting, heat treatment and nondestructive testing.

View the common part page →
Generic apron feeder chain pin and bushing
02

Chain Pins and Bushings

Chain Pin & Bushing

Form the link articulation and take contact fatigue, wear and impact. Check pin diameter, bushing wall thickness, fits, lubrication and hardened layers together.

Material selection: Alloy steel, surface hardening and core toughness are key controls. Drawings determine the actual parameters.

View the common part page →
Generic apron feeder drive sprocket
03

Drive Sprockets

Drive Sprocket

Mesh with the traction chain to transmit torque. Confirm tooth profile, pitch, tooth count, hub interface and mounting direction together with chain and shafts.

Material selection: Confirm tooth-surface strength, wear layer, core toughness, tooth accuracy and nondestructive testing against drive requirements.

View the common part page →
Generic apron feeder support roller
04

Support Rollers

Support Roller

Support moving pans and traction chains, affecting running resistance, chain alignment and pan stability. Identify shaft, roller body, bearings and seals as an assembly.

Material selection: Confirm roller bodies, shafts, bearings and seals separately for load, speed, contamination and lubrication.

View the common part page →
Generic apron feeder chain tensioner
05

Chain Tensioners

Chain Tensioner

Compensate chain elongation and maintain suitable tension. Confirm travel, load direction, hydraulic or mechanical interfaces and locking structure against the machine layout.

Material selection: Confirm structures, shafts, bushings and seals separately for load and tensioning method.

Is D10 alone enough to identify a feeder pan?

No. Also confirm effective width, machine length, chain pitch, pan profile, fastening holes, serial number and drawing revision.

Can chains, sprockets and pins be measured separately?

They may be manufactured separately, but technical review should cover the matched system to prevent mismatched pitch, tooth profiles, fits and running paths.

Why are MMD part numbers not published?

Traceable information does not yet establish a sufficiently reliable part-number mapping for D4, D7, D10 and D11. Unverified numbers are not presented as confirmed data.

Submit MMD Feeder Type, Effective Width, Drawings or Samples

Provide D type, serial number, effective width, chain pitch, part position, drawings or samples, materials and operating conditions. We use these for identification, manufacturing coordination, quality control and delivery.
