In addition, Hosan conveyors can be built to handle any type of metal chip configuration, whether they are short or long, wet from industrial lubricants, dry, or extremely hot from the production process. Having a conveyor to carry away chips aids in creating a clean work environment, as well as reduces the risk of cuts and other injuries around metal cutting machinery like lathes, routers, milling machines, etc. Hosan chip conveyors are also helpful in the recycling of oils and lubricants. When moving scrap metal chips that are covered in lubricant, the conveyor can separate the lubricant for reuse by means of perforations in the hinged belt or by slightly inclining the infeed area of a scraper belt conveyor or magnetic slide conveyor, saving money and reducing the cost of disposal. The Scrap metal chips can then be sent to a central location for recycling as well. In summary, chip conveyors provide many benefits for the cleanliness, safety and sustainability of your facility, and Hosan produces the best chip conveyors in the industry.

Roller conveyor with wire shaft A shaft roller conveyor or shaft conveyor is, as its name suggests, the shaft that carries the roller below.These conveyors are suitable for light applications weighing up to 50 kg, such as cardboard boxes and suitcases. A single shaft extends under the roller along the length of the conveyor.There are a series of spools on the axis, and each roller has a spool.The elastic polyurethane o-ring strip extends from the wire shaft on the power shaft to each roller.When the shaft is energized, the O ring ACTS as a chain between the spool and the roller, causing the roller to rotate.The roll drives the product along the conveyor.The shaft is usually driven by a motor, which is usually controlled by an electronic PLC (programmable logic controller).The PLC electronically controls how specific parts of the conveyor system interact with the product being transported. The advantages of the conveyor are quiet operation, convenient installation, moderate maintenance and low cost.Spool conveyors are also very safe for people because the elastic bands can stretch and if any fingers are caught, they don't hurt.In addition, if the clothes, hands or hair are stuck in them, the spool will slide and allow the roller to stop moving.Also, because the spools on the shaft are slightly loose, they act like a clutch that slides when products need to accumulate (stop moving and collide with each other).Queuing.These conveyors are available for almost all applications except for soft bottom containers such as cement bags. One drawback of the roller drive is that it can only be used to deliver products that span at least three rollers, but the diameter of the roller can be as small as 17mm and can be closer together by 18.5mm.For items shorter than 74 mm, the conveyor belt system is often used as an alternative.

Different types of drag chains used today include: · Open · Closed · Low noise · Cleanroom compliant · Multi-axis movement · High load resistant · Chemical, water and temperature resistant Different designs of drag chains might allow the protected hose or cable to be bent in one direction without impacting the function of the hose. One example would be a hose that is used to direct a steady flow of air for cleaning purposes that can easily be bent in order to direct the nozzle into tight spaces where dirt and other debris might collect. The purpose of the chain prevents the hose from cracking or becoming weakened by the bending action. This ensures that the air flow remains consistent. Additionally the chain protects the operator from an uncontrollable burst of air due to a collapsed hose. Drag chains can be used to protect hoses and cables in a wide variety of different settings. For example drag conveyor chains might be used in automated car washes and in production facilities such as oil rigs. Other types of tools commonly used in construction use hoses and cables that are protected by drag chains. Examples of these include cranes and forklifts. Since drag chains can be used with a variety of different hoses able to carry a flow of liquids, gases, electrical currents or data, there is really no application where a drag chain will not be helpful.

In pursuit of excellence in efficiency, Lorbrand Composites South Africa explains to African Mining Brief how composite conveyor rollers made of enhanced proprietary materials address the limitations of standard conveyor roller products in mines worldwide. In recent years, the mining industry has faced demand from conveyor roller producers, who offer low-cost hdpe and steel conveyor rollers as alternatives to OEM equipment. The challenge is to determine whether these options will enable coal mines to comply with safety and environmental regulations, increase operating costs and add value to the value chain of conveyor systems. The consensus is that the range of low-cost steel rollers and hdpe or other plastics options is limited because they can only work best in some areas while being eclipsed in others. Although steel rollers have undisputed structural strength, they are more susceptible to corrosion and wear in humid environments. These high wear conditions make it possible for damaged or worn rollers to cut the belt, resulting in rapid and significant damage to the belt. In addition, the steel coils are heavier and require more lift, injuring the workers handling them. Unconsciously, this situation increases the possibility of mine accident compensation cost. Steel rollers are also difficult to recycle because they require a lot of input before they are recycled. In high performance applications, the typical hdpe rolls cannot compete with steel rolls of similar size in handling loads. Under these conditions, few composite drum manufacturers provide Cema E and Cema F load capacities on typical belt widths. Advanced composite plastic rollers are designed to compete with high quality steel rollers in the highest load and fastest belt applications, and will match or exceed the properties of steel. Practical choice Two companies at the forefront of composite technology, Lorbrand and Lorbrand Composites, have been researching ways to improve the composition of composite rollers for years to improve their durability. Lorbrand Composites's team Shared their views on the region with African mining briefings, particularly their in-field experience. They say the company has gone further, offering composite rollers of various materials including nylon, sintered reinforced hdpe and new FRZ materials approved through polymer technology for use in underground applications. This gives the product broad advantages in terms of safety, operational benefits, significant cost savings and carbon footprint reduction. Security interests The user needs to choose the right material for the environment. Flame retardant materials should be used in mines where fire risk assessment is high .HDPE or composites should be used where fire risk assessment is low. Most hdpe cannot be made into refractories without significant loss of mechanical properties. Nylon based products are best suited for fire presence applications because its standard form is fireproof V2 / V3.If static electricity and fire are the problem, then custom-made composites (usually nylon) are the right material to choose from. Antistatic and flame retardant rollers will combine the flame retardant ability and the actual electrical conductivity of the whole shell. If the shell is not conductive, the typical copper wire passing through the bearing housing is virtually useless in causing static charge accumulation. At the high end of the compound roller, few rollers meet FRAS requirements. Drum manufacturers who meet the requirements usually go through the requirements of the Australian underground mining authority, which is the most stringent specification. The toxicity of combustion materials should not be neglected. Many materials are flame retardant, but to achieve this added chemical, flame retardants release very toxic gases when burned.In tragic incidents of land-mine deaths related to underground fires, deaths are often caused by asphyxiation caused by the presence of harmful gases. These gases need to be kept below a significant rate, and only advanced materials can achieve this effect. Operating efficiency Advanced composite rollers consistently show that in most test environments, composite rollers will be more durable than steel or more advanced carbide rollers. This means longer uptime, less roller replacement, less stock holding, less belt damage from rollers, lower noise emissions and, most importantly, significantly lower power consumption. Significant cost savings Cost savings are another area where composite rolls are more valuable than steel or typical hdpe substitutes. The average mining customer should be able to save a significant amount of cost when using high quality composite rollers in the following factors: § dropped due to the replacement and cost reduction § start due to reduced stress, reduce the power consumption and may reduce the service costs of the motor and drive § reduce noise § reputable manufacturers will provide more than the typical the warranty period of 12 months - in a few cases the warranty can be increased from 12 months to 36 months or, in some cases, 60 months (if the inspection and maintenance of mine conveyor belt and create accurate records) Easy to recycle The compound roller can also help mines achieve "green dots or reduce carbon footprint" through recycling. The composite roller material has high quality and has important value in the recycling market. The structure also makes disassembly easier to recycle, simpler and more energy efficient than typical steel rollers. 'not all composites are created equal' Typical hdpe rollers are made from off-the-shelf pipes commonly used in pipe or rain water industries. The tube is typically made from a combination of hdpe materials, designed to keep costs low. This tube does not have the mechanical properties needed to make the roller. The requirements are stiffness, straightness, roundness and some heat resistance. In some cases, hdpe rollers have been seen to go beyond the tolerable limit of 0.5mm per meter to spend only a few minutes in the sun, which will soon affect the integrity of the bearings and rollers. Ordinary users of the above composite high-performance roller should seek the following benefits: § roller life cycle is far more than the typical steel or hdpe roller § improve life expectancy and reduce cost of ownership - for example, the lowest life for 3 to 5 years, conveyor roller to reduce more than 20% a year § casing wear at least 40% Number of § roll change significantly reduced § roller significantly reduce the damage to the belt § reduce energy costs - during the startup and operation § reduce noise - at least 60% § is easy to handle § recycling and waste management Research and development research and development is the key. The conveyor roller industry needs to contribute to the profitability of mining and developing products that outlive their predecessors and are key to ensuring sustainable mining. Simply tweaking existing designs doesn't do that. The commitment to state-of-the-art design software and the technology and research of qualified designers is the only way for the conveyor roller industry to move forward and play its role. http://www.hosanmachinery.com

Precautions in the operation of the machine chip remover: (1) The chip removal volume is not as great as possible. The main reasons that affect the chip removal rate are the rotation speed, the effective chip width, the distance between the magnetic block or the span of the scraper. Under the condition that the width and spacing of the row (specification and model) are certain, the lifting speed of the enclosure determines the amount of chip removal. , so the evacuation volume assembly increases wear. At the time of design, the manufacturer generally reserves 10% -20 of the reserves according to the user's requirements. (2) Do not pay attention to semi-dry iron chips. Magnetic chip removers are particularly difficult to handle for such iron scraps. The usual way is to completely turn this type of iron into wet, and then design the chip remover as a wet process. In chip evacuation systems, coolant working machine worklights are sometimes handled separately and are not allowed to mix into the evacuation line. (3) Strip-type magnetic, crawler chain chip remover Each power head can achieve 42m no overlap, but considering the actual installation, generally does not exceed 30m, beyond this range to increase the power head. The maximum length of other types is limited (except for large flow rate). Feel free to contact us: info@hosanmachinery.com www.hosanmachinery.com

Conveyor rollers as the heart of the belt conveyor, under the background of the long distance, high-volume, high-speed belt conveyor, the research of the roller has been paid more and more attention. The roller-to-belt conveyor is described. Influence, introduced the present status of the idler, pointed out the problems existing in the idler, analyzed the bearing, seal structure, lubrication method, and the material of the idler, etc., and laid a foundation for the development of high-quality idler. The role of the roller is to support the conveyor belt and the weight of the material. Roller operation must be flexible and reliable. Reducing the friction between the conveyor belt and the idler roller plays a key role in the life of the conveyor belt, which accounts for more than 25% of the total conveyor cost. Although the idler is a small component in the belt conveyor and the structure is not complicated, it is not easy to make a high-quality idler. The standards for judging the quality of idlers are the following: the radial runout of the idler; the flexibility of the idler; the amount of axial turbulence. Main classification 1, according to the material is divided into rubber roller, ceramic roller, nylon roller and insulation roller 2. There are mainly trough idler sets, various types of parallel idler sets, various types of aligning idler sets, and various types of buffer idlers. (1) Grooved roller has ordinary roller, forward tilt roller, quick change bearing roller, hanging roller, three chain roller, reversible roller, variable groove roller, transition type Roller, V-type roller, etc. (2) The parallel idlers include ordinary idler rollers, comb-type idler rollers, forward-inclined idler rollers, steel plastic idlers, and spiral idlers; (3) Self-aligning idlers include universal type, friction reversible type idler, strong type idler, conical idler, spiral type idler, combined type idler, etc.; (4) The buffer roller has spring type roller, buffer ring type idler, strong cushion type idler, adjustable elastic type idler, hanging type idler, etc. http://www.hosanmachinery.com

Chip conveyor are machines used to convey material or transport things from one end to another. They are becoming more popular day by day. Conveyor systems are required in all the fields you name or think of, for moving things from one point to another or transporting materials at a distance. Currently, they are becoming a necessity in all walks of life, whether it is industrial, mining, commercial, pharmaceuticals, packaging, truck loading, etc. Designs for Varied Industries. Many systems also have inbuilt basic safety attributes which assist to stop injuries including automatic and manual stoppage of a functioning conveyor. The units allow a great benefit due to the fact that an incredible number and an assortment of systems in the current market What Benefits You Can Get? enable the moving of chips irrespective of its types, styles, sizes, and weight loads. The units may be exclusively constructed for great loads or smaller loads, or can also possibly be built to handle various styles and weight loads. A good example of a system developed to manage an awful lot of different weights, styles and sizes. The benefit of such system is the fact that they may be located, or set up, very nearly anywhere. Some can be purchased and then successfully installed by the purchaser; however, those people with a demand for more sophisticated models can have the conveyors installed to suit. This just means that regardless the space is, and where it is positioned, if there is adequate space for your conveyor equipment required, the system can easily be installed. For this reason, you will find conveyor units indoors throughout industries of all kinds. Though safety has already been discussed several times, this is a highly significant benefit that systems provide. The safety factors are increased on the account of efficient use of systems not simply due to significantly less human handling but also because, relative to various other systems, they are less risky to use. Some examples of equipment that are occasionally being substituted by machines include things like forklifts, cranes, and good old carts and wagons. With the overwhelming benefits that they bring, it is no surprise that conveyor systems are successful and remain to be incredibly prominent within a significant number of industrial sectors. Chip conveyors are very in demand thanks to the advantages they offer. Among the most apparent positive aspects of conveyor systems would be the automation for supplies transportation. http://www.hosanmachinery.com

Hosan was founded in 1981 on the premise that we could make a superior hinged steel belt conveyor for moving chips out of metalworking operations. A key Hosan advantage is our exclusive tight tolerance Radial Sidewing which alleviates the most common frustrations with traditional scrap chip conveyors. No more: - Jams and belt damage caused by material scrap carry back and seepage into the return track. - Belt wear caused by material pressed and pinched in the sidewings. Other benefits include tough 10 gauge frames, all welded construction, and a wide range of standard and custom features and options. There is simply no comparison to Hosan chip conveyors and those provided as original equipment. Challenge and Solution A machine shop producing a high volume of chips continuously could not shut down the chip scrap conveyor to change bins. Hosan offered a discharge chute with a pant leg configuration and a pneumatic diverter to shift the flow of chips from one side of the pant leg to the other. Conveyors are available with either a stamped side wing or our exclusive radial side wing which virtually eliminates jamming with small chips and fines. Chip conveyor models are available with many options including drive locations, liquid tight bottom pan.

Cable drag chains are used in machine tools, process and automation machinery, vehicle transporters, vehicle washing systems, cranes and in many other ways. These products come in an extremely large variety of sizes and configurations, and in two main material types – plastic or steel. In this article Martin Buttkereit discusses the significant benefits that the steel variety, often unduly overlooked by designers and specifiers, can offer over their plastic counterparts. Historically all cable drag chains were manufactured from steel, however as for many other products, plastic alternatives have grown in popularity over time. Although now prolific in some application areas, plastic cable drag chains are not always the most appropriate solution, and their steel cousins can often be a more robust and effective choice. Other than the lightest duty applications, where there are no adverse environmental considerations, and where plastic cable drag chain is likely to be more cost effective, steel cable chain remains a highly viable option across the medium to heavy-duty application sectors. This is especially the case in areas where conditions are harsh. For example, where hot swarf or chips are present, an enclosed steel cable chain will provide the ultimate protection and deliver a long service life. Available in both enclosed and open versions, Buttkereit`s range of steel cable chain products can also be supplied in stainless steel or even hardened steel if required. In addition, there are versions available for long travel and rotary applications if necessary. A further benefit of the steel variety is its greater strength and resistance to the effects of operators or maintenance personnel who can often inadvertently step on the chain. The steel chain will not bend or break and continue to protect the cables, and / or hoses within the chain. In addition, where the maximum continuous operating temperatures of some plastic cable chain systems is around 1000C, steel cable chain can easily withstand temperatures of up to 6000C, with no adverse effects. Plastic cable chains can sometimes be susceptible to wear when used in machine tool applications, or in areas where the chain may come into contact with materials of an abrasive nature. Steel on the other hand is much more resilient and will have a much longer service life in almost all applications. Steel cable chains are easy to lengthen or shorten to suit specific applications and with spares readily available, any maintenance required can be achieved quickly. Steel cable chains definitely come into their own, and remain first choice, for heavy-duty applications, where they will generally always out-perform plastic types in terms of strength to weight ratio and un-supported length or span. With their extended longevity, strength, resistance to high temperatures and harsh environments, steel cable chains will continue to be the first choice for many new applications and are definitely worthy of serious consideration as replacements for damaged or broken plastic types.
