In this system, developed by Heenan and Froude Lid. Worcester, England, the leeder is driven by a DC motor which is excited through an electronic rediler, sultable for connecting to normal single phase AC supply and capable of giving very wide speed range to cover large variety of grains without the need for resetting when changing from one kind to an- other.
21
The DC motor speed is auto- matically controlled
to
feed grain to the grinding mill at such rates that the mill motor always works at full load, thus achieving maximum possible output.

In
The speed of the "Hecnatron" feeder drive is controlled the amount of current demand- ed by the mill motor.
and this way the rate
of feed continuously regulated 10 the required value to keep the mill motor on hill load.
Any change in current de- mand by the mill motor causes change in the rate of feed- 10. If the demand
increases above the pre-set Agure, the feed decreases, and vice versa. The system also incorporates
a slow acceleration circuit, feed failure protection and auto- matic air system protection.
