There are many causes for the feed rate to decline over time. A common impulse reaction to a feeder not operating at or close to capacity is to turn the controller up. A repetitive pattern of this behavior leads to a controller turned up all the way and performance is no longer being increased. This kind of problem is best solved with a complete disassembly and retuning of the unit.
