Mechanical conveyor turns tight corners

Spiroflow aero mechanical conveyors have been introduced with a new design enabling them to turn at 90deg bends, significantly increasing application flexibility by allowing users to plan out conveying routes around obstacles This ability to turn a series of tight corners with no loss in throughput is an advance on most powder and granule conveying methods limited to either straight lines or gentle bends, or vacuum conveyors that can turn bends but each one reduces their throughput

Dustless sack emptier designed for small batches
A dustless sack emptier is designed for users who manually empty a relatively small amount of sacks as part of a production process.
Designed and custom-built for the product to be handled, in a virtually limitless range of configurations to suit a wide variety of applications, the aero mechanical conveyor is one of the most efficient and cost-effective methods of conveying materials in terms of its high productivity and clean dust-free operation.
Using a looped rope travelling through a tube with evenly spaced discs to create a moving air current, these conveyors maintain high throughput rates of up to 120 tonnes/hr elevating material from a ground-level feed hopper to heights of up to 25m at any angle.
Aero mechanical conveyors operate with minimal product degradation and separation.
Maintenance requirements and power consumption are both low, and the whole system is dust sealed to meet COSHH regulations. Request a free brochure from Spiroflow ...
