New sack tip station improves safety/productivity
Solids handling equipment specialist Ajax Equipment has developed an innovative Sack Tip Station for the opening, discharging and disposal of sacks containing process ingredients
The elevators can be linked directly to a wagon connection or discharge device for ease of material transfer.
In a design innovation, the elevator drive motor is mounted half way along the screw length for better balance and ease of maintenance.
Ajax Equipment offers a high degree of customisation to meet specific application requirements.
In addition to the length, diameter and capacity of the screw, these can include a sack tip station with or without dust extraction hood, and big bag station for feeding the inlet or receiving the output.
The screw elevator has a small footprint, making it ideal for movement and operation within the tight confines of an industrial plant or warehouse.
"These mobile screw elevators offer process engineers and logistics companies an effective and flexible way to load and unload bulk road vehicles," says Eddie McGee, technical director, Ajax Equipment.
