This week’s photo highlights a pneumatic hammer knocker. Hammer knockers are one of many knocking system options FEECO provides to help combat material build-up inside of a rotary drum.

Pneumatic hammers are mounted above a strike plate on the drum. An operator controls the hammer electronically, defining the amount of force, frequency, and strike intervals by the touch of a button.  The hammer then ‘knocks’ the drum, and dislodges interior material build-up.

All of FEECO’s knocking system options are customized to fit the particular drum and overall process at hand. For more information, download our brochure, or contact us today!
