After more than 10 years of operation, the slat conveyor chain at a leading Swiss construction company needed to be replaced. FB Ketten is known for customised chain solutions and was also invited to submit a quotation. The customer has a long tradition and attaches great importance to high plant availability. Founded in 1931, the steam roller company has developed very successfully in road construction, civil engineering and tunnelling in the almost 100 years of its existence, operates its own gravel plants and now sees its core competencies in the areas of construction, logistics, environment and digitalisation. Suitable solution required Nothing had to be changed in the design, as the customer was satisfied with the service life of the original equipment chain. This project was therefore about a customised 1:1 replacement at a fair cost. Chain application engineers Daniel Zahnd and Alexander Frankenstein examined the system in detail and submitted a suitable quotation. The FB employees worked very closely with the plant operators from the initial contact, through the on-site inspection to the quotation and order, and paid attention to the customer’s own experience, wishes

Schenck Process will be presenting the CS+ loss-in-weight feeder system at the Battery Show in Stuttgart from 18th to 20th June (Booth B73, Hall 8). The modularly configurable system is specially designed to meet the requirements of electrode production and is suitable for both continuous and batch processes. It fulfils the highest standards of safety, cleanliness and dosing accuracy. The production of lithium-ion batteries is complex. To ensure a high-performance, high-quality product, contamination of the slurry by metallic abrasion and the ingress of air and moisture must be avoided. At the same time, maximum feeding accuracy under challenging pressure conditions and a reliable containment concept are required. The new CS+ loss-in-weight feeder system from Schenck Process perfectly meets these different requirements. CS+ can be customized to meet individual customer requirements. The modular design makes it possible to cover a large feeding range with just one feeder type: CS+ is suitable for small quantities from 30 litres per hour as well as for high feeding capacities of up to 3,000 litres per hour.

Learn how RHEWUM’s screening technology optimizes the separation of glass fiber reinforced polyamide beads to increase quality and efficiency in material processing. Introduction The industry is continuously faced with the challenge of processing materials not only efficiently and economically, but also meeting the quality requirements of end products. A special focus is on the processing and separation of plastics, especially glass fiber-reinforced polyamide spheres (PA GF). These specialty plastics, enriched with glass fiber, offer improved mechanical properties and are therefore in high demand in many technical applications. Efficient sieving of these materials is crucial for the purity of the end product and thus for the quality. In this context, RHEWUM sieving machines play a central role. Technological progress in sieving technology RHEWUM’s sieving technology is based on long experience and continuous development to meet the specific requirements of different materials. Particularly in the separation of glass fiber-reinforced polyamide spheres, it is essential to achieve precise separation to secure the desired material

Up to three measuring channels with freely selectable measuring ranges in a single housing: this is what the new multiple differential pressure transducer from HESCH offers. All settings on the HE 5413 are conveniently made using the ”EasyTool Controls 4.0” software from AXXERON HESCH electronics. Typical areas of application for the multiple differential pressure transducer are filter and dust extraction technology, ventilation and building technology, valve and flap controls, clean room and laboratory technology as well as extraction systems and supply air monitoring systems of all kinds. In these applications, the pressure upstream and downstream of filter elements or the extraction pressure against the environment is recorded. In this way, a statement can be made about the degree of contamination of the filter or the performance of the extraction fan can be controlled. The multiple measuring transducer is also ideal for monitoring filter systems with three filter stages, such as fabric filters, police filters and carbon filters. The device can be designed for supply networks with 19...30 V DC or for networks with 100...240 V AC. The

Accurate and repeatable measuring the mass flow for all kinds of bulk solids: cement, ore, fly ash, sugar, pigment, granulates, powders, plastics, grain. In the world of industrial processes, accurate and reliable material weighing is paramount for efficiency and productivity. The CO mass flow meter emerges as a trusted solution, catering to a diverse range of materials, from cement and ore to fly ash, sugar, pigment, granulates, powders, and plastics, as well as grain. Mass acceleration for accurate flow measurement One of the standout features of the CO mass flow meter is its exceptional accuracy, boasting the ability to weigh materials with a precision of 0.5% within the range of 40-100% of its maximum capacity. The flow scale uses mass acceleration instead of gravity to weigh, and can weigh traditionally difficult material, especially ones with fluctuating densities. Versatile capacities and unparalleled repeatability The CO mass flow meter is designed to handle a wide spectrum of capacities, ranging from 1.000 kg/h up to 100.000 kg/h. This versatility makes it an ideal choice for industries with diverse

The use of adhesive brackets when retrofitting vibrators and knockers on bulk goods containers reduces downtimes and protects containers. Vibrators and impactors are mounted on U-profiles, mounting brackets or metal plates (weld-on plates) for loosening, separating, compacting and sieving powders, granulates or pellets. In this way, containers and pipes are emptied and their walls cleaned, product blockages are dissolved and bulk material bridges are destroyed or, at best, avoided from the outset. To guarantee these effects, suitable fastening elements must already be taken into account during system planning and subsequent construction. However, problems always arise in the not infrequent cases where a need for vibration technology subsequently arises (new bulk materials, changed recipes, etc.) and no suitable fastening options have been provided on high-quality systems (e.g. made of stainless steel). Welding, on the other hand, is not an optimal solution in retrospect, because on the one hand the surface quality can deteriorate, especially with thin-walled containers, hoppers or pipes, and there is
