The BBUone is a bulk-bag unloading station that is designed for dust-free material flow from the bag to the vacuum conveyor. The BBUone has modular components and a host of optional features for different production requirements. It has a 2-ton…
MX Series multiplexers are designed to transmit up to 16 channels of bi-directional electrical information over a pair of fiber optic cables with no programming required. The new multiplexers feature input and output module selection that include 4-20 mA, 0-10…
The 1006 model from this company is an electrically heated tunnel oven with a conveyer-ized, gravity-roller design. It features a 15-hp, 17,500 ft3/min recirculating blower that provides vertical downward airflow, as well as Incoloy-sheathed tubular heating elements. The oven’s workspace…
A novel cold-dry process makes possible the utilization of fine form-factor silicon, such as granules and sand-like fines, in the production of high-purity polysilicon for solar photovoltaic cells and semiconductors, where such fine-grained material would normally have to be sent…
In testing by an independent laboratory, Superwool Plus high-temperature thermal insulation has been shown to have a thermal conductivity up to 40% lower than comparable insulation products at 1,000°C. The lower conductivity translates to energy cost savings and reduced carbon…
Peristaltic pumps work by compressing a tube against a circular pump housing with rollers on a rotating arm. The fluid that is ahead of the roller gets pushed forward, while new fluid is drawn into the tube by the vacuum…
Recovery boilers, in which pulp and paper companies burn spent black liquor from the kraft pulping process to recover and recycle sodium and sulfur, are a bottleneck in many paper mills. The reason is that they operate at their upper…
The Sani-Pallet is designed specifically for handling materials in a sanitary manner. The plastic pallets have no sidewall seams, gaps, holes and other features likely to trap bacteria. These pallets are made with built-in Microban antimicrobial protection to inhibit bacterial…
