30 Powder Bulk Solids Rotary Paddle Switch The ROTALOG Rotary Paddle Switch by Mucon presented by Kemutec signals the presence or absence of bulk materials in silos and hoppers and detects blockages in conveyor chutes Perfect for dry bulk solids including powders chips and granules the ROTALOG detects the product when the rotation of the paddles inside the container is impeded After approximately half a second the motor circuit switches off All active parts become stationary resulting in long motor life and no Write In 226 Write In 227 Bulk Bag Discharger System Sodimates bulk bag discharger assures complete mechanical discharge along with accurate feeding Each unit incorporates an arch breaker spindle mounted with flexible blades that extract the bulk solids preventing jamming bridging or compaction as often seen with vibration systems The discharger can also be integrated with up to four independent screw feeders allowing for accurate conveying to different injection points with only one unloader The unit is spring loaded on telescopic arms that tighten the bag Sodimate Inc www sodimate inc com Write In 535 Versatile Vibratory Feeder Equipped with a drive that vibrates a specially designed feed tray the SolidsFlow 2000 provides versatility for a number of process applications A key feature of the SolidsFlow 2000 is its uniquely designed feed tray Each tray contains a number of slats with a gap and overlap across the entire width of the discharge opening All slat dimensions and angles are designed to suit the particular physical characteristics of each material being fed Therefore when the vibrations cease material flow stops instantaneously due to changes in the vibrated and static angle of repose of the product Schenck AccuRate www accuratefeeders com Write In 536 paddle wear Available in either side or top mounted models Kemutec www KemutecUSA com Write In 534 December 2012 www ProcessingMagazine com
