Keeping the Heat On: Solutions for Hot Material Transport

Are you working with a material that needs to stay hot through the entire transport process?
Insulation to prevent loss of heat during transportation process
Detachable trough to easily replace or repair damage
Powerful linear motion created by dual 8-pole Uras Vibrators
Many of our clients work with dangerously hot materials such as coke fuel that, due to either processing reasons or safety concerns, need to cool down in between processes. However, our recent client needed to keep ingots hot throughout transportation. The problem came when air entered through the conveyor and cooled down the ingots before moving into the furnace. Upon arrival, the temperature was too low to be used efficiently.
The fix was simple and inexpensive; glass wool insulation was installed underneath and along the vibrating conveyor. This kept the temperature of the ingots stable, as well as protected the workers from the immense heat radiating from the trough.

Unlocking Efficient Vertical Motion

While most of our machines we showcase here provide linear motion like feeders, screens and so on, vibrating motors can also provide vertical motion as shown with the Vibro Lift.  In most cases, vertical motion can only be provided by two vibrating motors set perpendicular to each other.  However, we provide a more space efficient solution with the patented Uras Techno Gearbox.

The Gearbox syncs up two vibrators that are set parallel to each other, but are still capable of delivering vertical motion!

This particular Vibro Lift transported PVC pellets from one application to the next, and was equipped with a water jacket to cool the material before arrival at the next application.

Adjustable Feeder for Bulk Solids

The name of the game with this feeder is adjustability!  When adjusting material flow comes to mind for bulk solids, a hopper comes to mind.  However our customer was feeding large, ceramic cylinders with approximate dimensions 3” x 5.5” x 8”, so a hopper that would generally work with bulk solids was not an option.

This feeder was constructed to allow them to control the flow of their ceramics with weights attached to free-moving gates attached to the frame.  The material would build up behind the gate until the weight was large enough to open the gate, allowing a certain amount of material through before the gate would close again and the process would start again.  The weights were adjustable, allowing them to freely control the flow of their product by simply adding or removing weights by hand.

As mentioned the gate was attached to the frame, so there was no chance of damage to the gate through the strong vibrations produced by the Uras Vibrator.  The customer was happy with the initial testing data, and loved the reliability and low maintenance of the Uras Vibrator.

Let us know in the comments if you’re interested in more details about the feeder, vibrator, or engineering behind our products.
