When the hopper is loaded, it is picked up by large, hydraulically operated arms and the batch is bottom-dumped into the blender via a slide-gate valve. Following the mixing cycle, the material is dumped through the mixer's discharge valve into another hopper, which is hydraulically lifted and set on top of the packer. ...
They can also convey bulk material over long distances, feed multiple discharge points selectively, or top off all points on a timed cycle through manual or automatic slide gate valves. Volumetric feeding A flexible screw conveyor can simultaneously meter and convey bulk solid products, since the units can be equipped with AC or DC variable ...
In this situation, it may be prudent to utilize alternate modes of operation, or a different equipment configuration, such as using a scale valve. A scale valve is a type of diverter valve mounted in a pneumatic conveying line that passes above a gain-in-weight hopper. It allows material to either pass through the valve body, or ...
