Buying a used belt conveyor system can be confusing. It is understandable that buying used industrial equipment may cause a few concerns. However, good quality used or surplus belt conveyors are proven to be highly efficient and economically beneficial in comparison to brand new belt conveyors. Industries like material handling, mechanical, automation, and so on utilize conveyor belts in manufacturing and assembly units. The …
A fan can be defined as a machine that rotates like a turbine and provides mechanical energy to circulate the surrounding air. When industrial machines and equipment constantly function on a 12- or 24-hour basis, they produce heat. This built-up excess heat can damage the machine, and hence it needs to be cooled. This is why fans are used in industrial systems and machines …
A conveyor is one important material handling equipment used across industries. As its name suggests, it conveys different products over long distances at varying speeds. There are different types of conveyors available, among which flexible screw conveyors have gained immense traction. These conveyors have many names such as flex conveyors, flexible spiral conveyors, helix or helical conveyors, and more. They are designed to convey …
Mixing of materials is one of the common steps in various manufacturing processes. These materials may be in any state such as solid or liquid, and could their consistencies could be varied, such as sticky, abrasive, coarse powder, granules, and more. Irrespective of the consistencies, the materials must mix homogenously or as required, and which is why stainless steel mixing tanks are used. Stainless …
The ribbon blenders are simple equipment that is used across industries. These blenders feature a U shaped tub, which is integrated with rotary helical ribbon agitator structures. These blenders are widely popular for homogeneous mixing of solid, and liquid products, however, they are suitable for heterogeneous mixing as well. They are used for mixing granules, powders, liquid mixes, fertilizers, spices, etc. However, for various …
Conveyors are essential material handling equipment used across industries. As its name implies, the conveyor system is equipped with conveyor belts that act as a conveying medium. These powerful belts can carry different products over long distances at varying speeds. Also, they are used in ascending and descending applications. With such a vital role to play, it becomes important that conveyors perform as expected. …
A gear motor is an extremely important and essential component of any industrial system. It is a combination of an electric motor and a gearbox. This makes it a simple and cost-effective solution for high-torque and low-speed applications as it pairs a gear reducer system with a motor. Significantly, a gear motor ensures that a well-matched gearhead and electric motor help in achieving optimal …
The conveyors have been significant parts of industrial material handling systems for a long time by now. These conveyors are the material handling systems designed to convey goods between destinations. In industries like paper and pulp, automobile parts production, packaging, food and beverages, sand and cement, etc, the conveyors are of great significance. Since the industrial applications are of varying requirements, there are multiple …
A belt conveyor system is essential for the transportation of material from one end to the other, in an industrial unit. These systems consist of a couple of pulleys, also referred to as drums, with an endless or rotational loop for creating a pulling effect to carry the medium on the belt. To move the belt and the material forward and backwards, one or …
