Bulk Solids Handling & Processing Innovations
Many kinds of mechanical conveying systems are available and are used according to the various needs in dry material processing operations. Selecting the best mechanical conveyor for an application is essential to processing success and for business profits. Mechanical conveyor systems, for instance belt conveyors, (flexible) screw conveyors, vibrating conveyors, bucket conveyors (and elevators), aero-mechanical conveyors, spiral conveyors and cable & tubular drag conveyors are often the lifeline to a company’s ability to effectively move its bulk product in a timely fashion. This Technology Zone offers an insight into the latest innovations in mechanical conveying solutions for dry material processing industries.
SAIN QUENTIN – Once harvested, nuts like hazelnuts, walnuts and almonds, must be dried out at moderate temperature. This operation ensures a better conservation. It also guarantees an optimal taste quality and makes the shelling easier.

The machines are planned for dispatch by the end of this year.
Read moreThrough many years of experience working with the innovative ‘Olds Elevator’, the static screw / rotary tube conveyor, new features of this technology have been learned on the run. One of the new and unexpected features is the ability of the Olds Elevator principle to overcome virtually any ratholing while conveying solids (dry or wet) of any type. Besides other advantages such as allowing to convey materials over 1.000º C of temperature, with almost no particle attrition or any dust formation, among other, avoiding ratholing with the Olds Elevator is yet another superior quality of this type of conveyor. Here we discuss how is that technically possible.

Read moreAn air-gravity conveyor is a device for moving a variety of light-weight, fluidizable dry bulk powders. The conveyor consists of a rectangular chamber separated by an air-permeable, porous media. The media is placed along a horizontal plane to separate two chambers within the conveyor: An upper chamber to handle the material being conveyed, and a lower chamber to handle compressed air.

On-site safety signs are designed to alert maintenance workers to potential hazards before entering and performing maintenance work in dangerous and unsafe materials handling environments such as inside chutes, silos and hoppers. Often the necessary maintenance work may require permits and adherence to safety precautions before entering these “confined areas”.
