While we’ve had a pretty mild November in terms of snow, we’ve got several months of snow and icy conditions ahead of us. To keep drivers safe on the road, trucks hit their routes to spread road salt or gravel. This traction is essential when the roads are slick, and we wanted to highlight some of our principals and their products that are meant for these heavy industries.
Vortex
Vortex has a wide range of products for several industries, but here are three systems we wanted to highlight:
Titan Slide Gate: This product is ideal for handling heavy-duty aggregates, like gravel or road salt, in installations above or below gravity-fed hoppers/silos, mixers, and augers/screw conveyors. The slide gate is constructed from specialized materials and polymers for durability and abrasion resistance, and the displacement pocket prevents materials from getting wedged inside.
Titan Lined Diverter: The diverter is used to divert heavy-duty and/or abrasive dry bulk solid materials from one source toward two or three destinations in gravity-fed applications. From removeable access panels for maintenance and inspections to abrasion-resistant liners, the Titan Lined Diverter offers several advantages for your material handling process.
Loading Spouts: These systems are designed to capture dust from the product being loaded into trucks or other enclosed vessels while providing steady material flow. Loading Spouts come in a variety of sizes and have several key features you can view on their website.
Eriez
Known for their magnets and metal detection systems, Eriez offers several products for industries dealing with heavy material.
Suspended Magnets: The Suspended Permanent Magnet is installed above fast-moving belts, proving to be extremely effective at removing unwanted iron from the materials being conveyed. Suspended Electromagnets serve a similar purpose, removing tramp metal that would be a hazard to downstream crushers, mills, pulverizers, and grinders.
Metal Detectors: Eriez offers several metal detectors, so whether you’re looking for small ferrous or nonferrous metal pieces, tramp metal, or digger teeth, you’ll be able to solve your metal contamination problem.
Tecweigh
This company can provide you with several material handling solutions, but we’re zeroing in on one system in particular:
Belt Scales: Offering five different types of belt scales, Tecweigh gives customers a proven, rugged, and reliable design available in single, dual, and four idler configurations. Choose the belt scale that works best for your industry.
