Equipment

Driven by natural frequency for high capacity at minimum stress, or brute force for more muscle in a severe environment, vibrating bulk material feeders ensure a constant and controlled feeding from pinpoint dosage to large flow.

SOME FEATURES AND OPTIONS

• Regular and uniform discharge flow
• Compact and rugged
• Adjustable feed rate
• High capacity
• Radial and/or incline conveying
• Screening, scalping, dewatering functions
• Furnace feeding or mold dumping for foundry
• Drying/preheat systems

Fluid bed systems function by crossing the bed of solids with a process gas (generally regular air) to impact its temperature and/or moisture content, with the most frequent processes expected being cooling or drying, but also torrefying, curing, heating,… Vibrating fluid beds also provide better fluidization and thermal efficiency, with minimal retention time, thanks to a maximized contact surface between the air and the product.

A complete system with auxiliaries can also include features like ventilation, burner and/or heat exchanger, ducting, cyclones, filtration,…

SOME FEATURES AND OPTIONS

• High thermal efficiency
• High versatility
• Low particle degradation
• Uniform mixing
• Suited for many materials (sticky, fragile, explosive, hygroscopic,…)
• Easily adjustable retention time, temperature and airflow
• Multifunctional: can perform multiple processes (dry, cool,…) in one pass

THE CARRIER VIBRATING SPIRAL ELEVATOR IS A VERSATILE UNIT FOR ELEVATING SMALL TO MEDIUM SIZE PRODUCTS WITHIN A COMPACT FOOTPRINT.

In addition to elevating difficult-to-handle products, Carrier spiral elevators can also dry, cool, heat or condition a wide range of materials. Units are easy to install and maintain and can be customized to meet the needs of your application.

SOME FEATURES AND OPTIONS :

• Vibrating spiral elevators are designed to elevate a variety of bulk solids without spilling or jamming parts.
• Available in diameters up to 3m and heights up to 20m.
• Process capability for drying or cooling the product while elevating.
• High temperature designs available for handling materials up to 800°C.
• Available in brute force or natural frequency design.
• Adjustable stroke and angle of attack for retention time control.
• Water or steam-jacketed trough designs available.
• Product contact surfaces can be Plasma or Teflon coated for handling of sticky product.
• Food and dairy grade clean up available.
• Choice of spiral elevator construction materials: metal alloys or stainless steel.
• Easy installation, low maintenance and minimum downtime.

Screeners come in a wide variety of options to be able to screen, scalp, dewater or separate materials. The screening deck is custom-designed to deliver maximum efficiency after analysis of material particle size distribution and other characteristics. The vibrating technology ensures a thin and regular material bed, making it suitable for high workloads as well as delicate handling of fragile products.

ADVANTAGES OF VIBRATING SCREENERS

• Single or multiple deck
• Wet or dry screening
• Two-bearing drive and circular or elliptical motion for maximum result
• Easy and economical installation and maintenance
• Air Knife function
• Dewatering function
• Grizzly

Carrier shakeouts improve foundry profitability by reducing maintenance costs, eliminating or reducing casting damage and maximizing sand removal.

Shakeouts can be used for sand to metal ratios as low as 5:1 and as high as 60:1. The Delta-Phase® Shakeout allows the operator to manage the conveying speed and retention time of castings on the shakeout deck — optimizing sand removal. The provided controls accommodate an unlimited number of recipes for diverse casting production.

Shakeouts Offered by Carrier Include:

• Delta Phase® Shakeout
• Barrel Horse™ Shakeout
• No Bake & Flask Shakeout
