System layout options
A selection of Spiroflow's basic aero mechanical conveyor configurations are shown here. Many other layouts can be designed to suit customers' particular requirements.
Features:
|
Inlet chute with aeration device. |
Pneumatic baffle provides control of flow into conveyor (free-flowing materials only). |
Material finishes can be epoxy painted or stainless steel. |
Standard disc material in USDA accepted polyurethane. |
|
Many conveyors used for food and pharmaceuticals applications benefit from our new smooter flow spun sprocket housings. |
In sack emptying operations, a dust hood is often necessary. A sack compaction device may also be supplied. |
For low headroom situations, a screw conveyor can be used to bring material into the chute of the aero mechanical conveyor. |
Typical throughputs
The table shows estimated AMC conveying rates in tonnes per hour based on continuously metered feed. When feeding from a sack dump, the rate may reduce by 10% to 40% depending on the material flow characteristics.
