White Paper: Tubular Drag Technology for the Conveyance of Powder & Bulk Solids

Summary

Engineering conveying systems for today’s processors requires far more than just moving product from point A to point B. Engineers must also consider plant and worker safety through assessing how the process affects the environment. And with the increased cost of materials and processing, it has never been more important to ensure materials are protected and stay within the process.

Stillwater Mining Improves Smelting Efficiency and Yield, Eliminates Dust with Tubular Drag Conveyor

Challenge

A processor was using an inefficient, dirty process to feed its smelting furnace.

Aluminum casting company leverages custom-built Hapman equipment to create a cleaner, quieter foundry

Challenge

A casting foundry wanted to create a cleaner, more efficient environment that was also safe for workers.

Hapman Systems: Bulk Bag Pneumatic Batching System

Challenge

Deliver measured amounts of four powdered ingredients, received in bulk bags to slurry tanks. Some materials are hygroscopic, flow poorly in humid environments and may contain small agglomerations. Whereas some materials do not mix readily into solution, the delivery must be metered so as not to exceed the mixers ability to force it into suspension. System must be automatic and fit into an existing manufacturing space with a very limited footprint. Housekeeping is a concern- provision to minimize the escape of airborne product is essential. Control system must be open architecture and comprised of commonly available, highly dependable components to minimize downtime.

Hapman Maintains EPA Standards by Meterfeeding Enviroblend into a Dust Collection System

Challenge

EPA standards required this company to feed Enviroblend® into their dust collection system at a precisely controlled rate of 30 pounds per hour so the emissions would be at an acceptable level. They also required a digital verification that the material was accurately discharging

Tubular Drag Conveying System - Tire manufacturer with dust free multiple inlet system handling carbon black

Challenge

A major tire manufacturer needed to fit a material handling conveyor into a tight space, move the material (carbon black) from inlets and discharge it at two locations. In addition, the intermediate discharge had to be free of residual build-up, and the entire system dust free.
