The Vortex Titan Pressure Valve seals dry material conveyed pneumatically. Two valves will be part of an expansion that will merge two pneumatic conveying lines into a barge loading station.
These three Vortex Telescoping Loading Spout feature 14” feed inlets with a load rate capacity of up to 15,000 ft³/hr (425 m³/hr).
The gates will be mounted at the side of two holding bins. They will introduce coal to a conveyor belt located directly beneath the bins. The belt transports the coal to a size reduction mill.
This Vortex 3-way Titan-Lined Diverter features replaceable, interior liners constructed of abrasion-resistant steel (400BHN) to combat wear from the material handled.
This application uses three Vortex products. The terminal manager stated that the complaints from neighboring businesses regarding dust exposure have been nonexistent since the system was installed.
The Vortex Titan Slide Gate is designed to handle abrasive materials conveyed by gravity. These application-specific gates were manufactured with stainless steel blades and electric actuators.
The Seal Tite Diverter is designed to handle both fine and granular materials in gravity flow applications, providing positive material shut off and dust tight sealing capabilities.
This pneumatically actuated Vortex Titan Ladder Gate contains two identically sized openings that open or close simultaneously.
This client’s manufacturing process mills include bulk storage, bulk material discharge and transfer of raw material for aquaculture pellet feed production.
The client had a need to separate waste materials into three streams with quick actuation and without using a conventional flap type diverter which can be problematic on this particular application.
This Vortex Titan Single Blade Clamshell Gate features a “v notch” blade constructed of abrasion resistant steel (400 BNH). The gate is mounted above a Vortex filter and telescoping spout.
This Vortex Two-Way Pivoting Chute Diverter features an internal chute and wear liners constructed of abrasion resistant steel (400 BHN). Lifting lugs provide installation assistance.
This hand wheel Titan Maintenance Gate & pneumatically actuated Titan Slide Gate stack up is used to control the flow of finely-ground limestone into a Vortex Aero-Slide for conveyance & transport.
The Vortex Trimming Spoon is designed to be mounted at the bottom of a Vortex Ship Loader. the Trimming Spoon offers unlimited rotation in distributing material more evenly within the ship’s hold.
This Vortex Loading Spout features a 14” feed inlet with a load rate capacity of up to 15,000 ft³/hr (425 m³/hr). Manufactured cement is loaded into rail cars and transported to company terminals.
This Vortex Aero-Slide™ Conveyor is equipped with a manually operated Vortex Aero-Slide™ Drum Valve, a pneumatically operated Vortex Aero-Slide™ Drum Valve, and a Vortex Aero-Slide™ Gate Valve.
Nuestro conocimiento y experiencia en el manejo de polvos finos como la harina provienen de una larga historia y una estrecha relación de trabajo con la industria de la molienda.
These Hand Crank Vortex Titan Slide Gates are being used as maintenance gates beneath product silos. Metallurgical coke is a basic raw material used for the production of pig iron and steel.
This hydraulically-actuated Vortex Titan-Lined Diverter features a 106” x 16” transition that feeds material to a 48” x 16” diverter inlet and two 36” x 16” outlets.
These Vortex Titan Pressure Valves were slightly modified at the request of the customer. They were manufactured using stainless steel fasteners and painted with a special high temperature paint.
The Vortex Roller Gate was identified as the ideal solution for this application. The Roller Gate is designed for handling powders, pellets and granules in gravity flow and low pressure applications.
