Over the last 20 years, Steele even feeders have become the preferred solution for feeding synthetic gypsum and reducing scrap wallboard. Our E Series machines feed both wet, sticky synthetic gypsum and powders, including land plaster and stucco, in wallboard manufacturing.
Full and notched slip-on spirals cast from high chrome iron alloy
for durability and easy replacement.
Our even feeders adapt to specific applications, using standard, in-stock drive and wear parts on our proven, modular platform:
Optional cross shafts chop and shred soft or friable materials,
for better feed consistency and bin flow.
The E Series comes in two standard lengths,
88E and the longer 124E for bucket loading.
Dewatered mine tailings require high starting torque, particularly with a substantial “head” or volume stored above the feeder. E Series machines have more than 100,000 in-lbs. of starting torque on tap, to move your materials.
A specified Design C motor delivers 200% of normal operating torque at start-up to move fluid dewatered mine tailings.
Dewatered mine tailings and fine gypsum powder penetrate seals, leading to gearbox contamination and failure. Our E Series design eliminates continuous auger shafts extending into the timing gearbox, with separate auger and drive shafts connected by a rigid compression coupling and seal to prevent material penetration.
E Series options include hanging or “hopper suspended” installation.
Steele even feeders are commonly specified for paste backfill systems. Their size options and installation flexibility meet a wide range of individual system requirements, feeding filter cakes and dewatered mine tailings. These machines also reduce friable cakes, lumps and chunks into manageable sizes, while providing the consistent, controllable discharge rate required for a consistent paste mixture.

Over the last 20 years, Steele even feeders have become the preferred solution for feeding synthetic gypsum and reducing scrap wallboard. Our E Series machines feed both wet, sticky synthetic gypsum and powders, including land plaster and stucco in wallboard manufacturing.
Our even feeders have also replaced vibratory feeders and air locks — for less turbulence, more accurate flow and negative pressure on air swept mill inlets.
Händle, our German partner, manufactures a line of box and belt feeders.
