A key player in the Italian pet food market had a messy and expensive clean up operation scheduled every Saturday to clear away leakage below eight silos.
A bird seed processor uses flap diverters to divert millet, milo and sunflower seeds into separate storage bins. The processor had partnered with a new major client who required a cleaner end product.
Since their conception decades ago, the Vortex® Orifice Gate™ and the Vortex® Roller Gate™ have been two of Vortex’s most popular solutions for handling dry bulk solid materials.
These Vortex Aggregate Diverters were sourced for a rail transload facility, located in the Marcellus Shale area.
Application: Introduce hot, spent foundry sand into a cooler.
The client requested that the Maintenance Gate, Titan Slide Gate, and Titan Lined Diverter be assembled as one unit, prior to shipping.
Two of these hydraulically actuated TSG Gates were manufactured to include abrasion resistant steel blades, abrasion resistant inlet liners, and bonnet seal cartridges.
In this client’s application, the Vortex HDPV2 is installed alongside a second pre-existing slide gate. The two gates operate in tandem to be used as a diverter.
The combination of the V-notch blade and the diamond-shaped inlet allows material to discharge centrally through the middle of the Vortex® Roller Gate™.
