Abstract
A feed system includes a wear pad and one or more hold downs. The wear pad is operable to provide a seal over at least one pressure port and at least one corresponding material port of a feed wheel. The wear pad is in fluid communication with a pneumatic supply operable to provide pneumatic gas to the pressure port to discharge material from the material port. The hold downs are operable to apply pressure against the wear pad such that the hold downs provide consistent, equal pressure to the wear pad against the feed wheel.
