Material Handling

Case Study: Bag Handling, Check Sieving, Weigh System

In this installation, materials are received in 50-pound bags and semi-bulk bags and are security screened for foreign objects while being conveyed to a weigh hopper, where they are automatically hatched in predetermined weights and discharged into process drums.

Mixer And Blender Options For Vacuum Drying Requirements

Vacuum drying is ideal for processing heat-sensitive materials without risk of thermal degradation. It also allows manufacturers to recover costly solvents or safely dispose of any harmful volatiles removed from the closed system.

Case Study: Advanced Industrial Vacuum Cleaning Systems Integrated into Production And Processing Systems Are Paying Dividends By Increasing Productivity, Improving Safety and Protecting Worker Health VAC-U-MAX has developed an innovative way of handling wastewater treatment chemicals, including Potassium Permanganate and Alum, both widely used to neutralize the smell of wastewater in municipal and industrial treatment facilities

High Speed Mixers For Paints, Inks & Coatings

This white paper provides an overview of the different types of high speed mixers utilized in the manufacture of paints, inks and coatings. These machines accomplish a range of processing objectives which sometimes overlap.

Case Study: Packaging Companies Discover Efficiency, Cost Savings And Increased Production Available Through Pneumatic Conveying

With today's economic pressures, more plant managers and others charged with conveying powders, granular items, and flakes for packaging are adopting the automatic operation of vacuum conveying and packaging equipment as standards to hit critical price points for market success.

Pneumatic Conveying System Makes Cap Handling a Snap

SunSweet Growers, a north California bottler, was thrilled as its number one client hit soft drink pay dirt with line after line of specialty beverages.

Case Study: Multiple Tablet Press Loading System Featuring patented Vac-U-Max tube hopper material receivers and microprocessor control, this system is a relatively simple example of how previously manual operations can be cleaned up and automated
