The new DUPLOCON discharge cone from WAM

Since Wamgroup chairman and C.E.O., Vainer Marchesini, set up his first workshop back in 1969 as a one-man-operation to manufacture screw conveyors, the name WAM® has come to stand for innovation in bulk material handling technology and equipment supply. Today, Wamgroup manufactures and supplies a comprehensive product range including equipment for Bulk Material Handling, Dust Filtration, Waste Water, Mixing and Vibration Technology. Strongly focused on the requirements of the market, Wamgroup aims to produce market-oriented solutions and to turn them into a particularly user-friendly standard. High quality and a price-performance ratio make Wamgroup equipment the ideal choice for every project engineer and gives the customer the best deal available on the market. Uncompromising dedication to R & D is the foundation of a vast product range and leads time and again to the development of custom-designed equipment from standardized modular components. Highly rationalized and cost-effective CAD/CAM-supported production methods and logistics have been constantly improved throughout the years and now can be considered `state of the art`. The VISION 2000 quality management gives every Wamgroup customer the assurance that the equipment he is going to use has been checked and tested in each phase of the manufacturing process. WAMGROUP’s worldwide sales network including subsidiaries and distributors offers each and every user professional advice, smooth order management and a ‘round the clock’ spares service. For major integration into overseas markets, in the 1990s Wamgroup started to set up manufacturing and assembly plants for their major product lines in all continents. At the beginning of the 3rd millennium Wamgroup stands for particularly market-oriented structures and maximum synergies between the Group’s members.

For many years, rotary valves have been the absolute standard for controlled and reliable product discharge from silos, hoppers, filter systems or cyclones. Are you satisfied with the product discharge from your storage bins? The accuracy with which bulk goods are discharged from storage bins often determines the quality of the subsequent processes. If problems occur at this point, the entire production process suffers. What’s more, if system components are not perfectly matched to each other and to the product, reliability often leaves much to be desired. In the worst case, incorrect planning leads to increased wear and unnecessary additional maintenance. For many years, rotary valves have been the absolute standard for controlled and reliable product discharge from silos, hoppers, filter systems or cyclones. But only when properly designed do they fulfil their task as desired. As a plant planner or operator, you should be able to answer these questions positively: # Do the discharged quantities correspond to the target quantities? # Are you satisfied with the reliability of the product discharge or do faults

WAM GmbH offers loading bellows (telescopic loading spouts, telescopic loading chutes) with a loading capacity of up to 1800m³/h for dust free loading of all kinds of bulk materials Wherever large quantities of bulk solids are moved, the wish list for process engineers is long: conveying, loading, transporting, filtering, mixing should be as fast as possible, ideally highly efficient with maximum safety for the process and employees and without costly or maintenance-intensive technology. Loading systems can meet these requirements almost completely, if they are designed correctly. The key technology, which manufacturers call loading bellows of telescopic loading spouts or chutes, is used at an interface that is particularly sensitive for a successful loading process. Only little time is available for loading into silo vehicles, open trucks, transport wagons or big bags, because downtimes cost money. At the same time, loading should not only be fast, but also clean without material losses due to leakages, poor positioning or the escape of dust, because the costs for this should not be underestimated. It becomes really expensive when the dust

Selecting the right pipe diverter reduces the risk of shortened service lives and failures, and optimises the product flow. In this way, supposedly critical plant components become key factors for the company’s success. Anyone who attaches importance to environmentally friendly and product-friendly conveying of bulk materials and maximum flexibility in pipe routing when planning or expanding a plant, chooses pneumatic conveying for good reasons. Pneumatic conveying is preferred where a closed system is necessary due to the presence of dusty bulk materials or where high hygiene standards must be maintained. Despite its comparatively high energy requirements, it is widely used in many industries, but especially in processing and manufacturing processes in the food, building materials and chemical industries. If the available space is one of the major challenges, in the form of long distances, differences in height or cramped conditions, the advantages of pneumatic conveying become clearly apparent. Whether horizontally or vertically, on straight or winding paths - there are few limits to creativity when it comes to routing the pipelines, and efficient transport even over long distances
