Factors to keep in mind while assembling a bulk material handling unit

Some measures and considerations have to be put in place when bulk material equipment or systems are being installed. It is not only for safety reasons but also to facilitate ease in the industrial procedure during assembly of a bulk material handling unit. Material handling equipment manufacturers should note that not every equipment is supposed to be used with every type of material, as the consistency of the material will impact the quality of the finished product. In the course of equipment selection, some factors that should be considered are as follows: Bulk density Average particle size Particle properties Environmental effects Material base Material handling equipment manufacturers do have an essential task before they begin with any process. They are advised to conduct thorough material tests so that the critical processing characteristics can be fully comprehended. For instance, some particle densities change at different phases of the material handling process

Equipment used in handling Bulk Materials

By the task that every unit is meant to complete, bulk material equipment and systems are manufactured, but a lot of systems add the regular components and features. Material handling equipment manufacturers already have a set picture of the task that each unit is designed to have. Bulk material handling equipment manufacturers make specified tools on different scales that suit their specifications and selected operations and procedures. Dominant in industrial production routines, the handling equipment is grouped by the type of materials they are designed to handle and also the type of applications for which they are made. The system that handles materials for manufacturing is a widely known type of bulk material handling system among experts and users. For example, bulk material handling systems are used by paper mills and sawmills to handle sawdust, logs, and woodchips for subsequent manufacturing. Coal-fired utility boilers are fed and used in flour mills by this kind of bulk

The Fundamentals of Handling bulk Material

Image
Bulk material handling deals with the process of processing, transporting, and packaging bulk materials to prepare for shipping or sale. Bulk materials vary in mass and use. Examples are dry materials like wood chips, loose stone and gravel, coal, ore and sand, cereals, and mixed wastes. Bulk material handling equipment manufacturers make specified tools on different scales that are according to their specifications and selected operations and procedures.

Pin Mill Technology for High-Efficiency Classifiers

Image
Advancements in pin mill technology offer quality grinding with a lesser energy expense when compared to usual air-swept mills. Previous versions of mills were considered obsolete when it comes to reducing the size of high-efficiency classifiers. Not so long ago, the air-swept classifying mills were the newest and most advanced trend in the milling industry. They were designed to perform different non-abrasive milling application during a simple two-phase process. This, once state of the art, high-efficiency classifier performance was based on a simple selection process. The first stage was assortment as it only used particles that were, according to the predetermined size, as was the finished product in the mill. Air-swept mills were considered efficient because they provided the best performance according to standardised norms. However, this milling technology was costly and needed substantial investments. The required components of machinery included baghouse filters that separa

Understanding the Basics of Rotary Calciner

Image
Heavy industries place rotary calciners as one of its top pieces of equipment, and its calcination process is equally important to the product quality. Rotary calciners are high-temperature machines used for processing materials into the desired form by either altering the state and composition of a material or by removing moisture. A rotary calciner is used for various material processing applications. A rotary calciner can be  used to act as the reaction channel  for a host of specialised operations in the chemical, metals, and mineral industries. It can be applied using calcination, thermal desorption and drying. Calcination During calcination, the product changes its form chemically or physically under a specific temperature for a required amount of time. Calcination can involve reduction, oxidation,  removal of chemically bound water,  pyrolysis and crystal structure changes. Calcination is often referred to as thermal processing, and this is because an Indirect rotar

An Upcoming Revolution In Overhead Handling Equipment

Image
Overhead handling equipment might have been in use for several decades now, but the truth is it is on a continuous evolution. They have evolved in recent times to satisfy three critical goals: safety, efficiency and flexibility. And with these goals in mind, material handling equipment manufacturers are offering end users a wide array of options. For example, manually operated closed track cranes and intelligent lifting devices are increasingly becoming popular in automation as they have significantly improved efficiency and safety in a way that is cost-effective. Lifting components are now redesigned to offer the end users the flexibility and safety they require while track crane systems can n now transfer loads in ways that are unique, efficient and safer. Intelligent Lifting Devices Increase Efficiency And Safety End users are always in the search for more efficient and cost-effective systems to improve their solutions. Nowadays, full automation is now more affordable than it

The role of social cost in the future of renewable energy

Image
Earlier this month, the Ministry of Finance released the second volume of the economic survey. It has since raised the issue of investment in renewable energy which has attributed to a social cost of Rs. 11 per unit in electricity, which is thrice the social cost of coal. This statistic has raised the question as to why renewable energy is being pushed so hard and is giving a wrong idea to the investors. While people were hoping for a low cost of renewable energy, the current price of Rs. 11 per unit has put a lot of critics under confusion as to how the number was derived. It says that an added investment in wind and solar would reduce the operation of coal power plants which will lead the investors to turn to renewable energy. The survey also suggests that the shift to renewable energy would leave the traditional power plants under-utilised below their maximum feasibility level technically. The investments made in these facilities would eventually sink and would result in loss
