ShaftAlign

ShaftAlign is a high-precision easy-to-use shaft-alignment tool with functions designed to reduce human error. Achieving precise alignment extends the lifecycle of bearings, seals and couplings and contributes to energy savings. The device features an intuitive auto-flow capability, which acts as a guide to obtaining the desired machinery alignment. In the active clock measurement mode, the device automatically collects laser coordinates for the corresponding shaft position. Operation requires only three readings over a rotation angle of less than 70 deg. to achieve a precision alignment.

Delta T moisture-control system

The Delta T moisture-control system now includes a water-activity control option that enables the user to maximize the moisture content of such products as pet food, animal feed, grain products, gluten, starch, distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS), and other foods, without exposing products to the dangers of mold or other harmful micro-organisms. Significant production increases, energy savings,  product quality and safety result from this feature.

MCT360 near infrared (NIR) transmitter

The MCT360 near infrared (NIR) transmitter is a high-quality sensor with an economical price. Its versatile design allows it to operate on its own or as part of a multi-point network. It can make three NIR measurements, plus a product temperature measurement, simultaneously. Used in a wide variety of powder and bulk applications, the MCT360 provides offline accuracy in an online instrument.

Turbo-Heat-Treater thermal processor

The Turbo-Heat-Treater thermal processor recovers mercury from powdered activated carbon (PAC), which is used to remove mercury from fluegases. The unit includes an internal electrical heating system to provide heat to remove residual mercury. A small purge of dry nitrogen is used to remove the vapor from the system, keeping fines carryover to a minimum. After processing, the stripped carbon can be reused as a sorbent many times, thus reducing the cost of PAC usage. The recovered mercury can be sold as a metal product. No secondary waste streams are generated with this technology.

Heavy-duty Series 585 and 586 butterfly valves

Heavy-duty Series 585 and 586 inflatable seated butterfly valves handle abrasive materials such as sand, feldspar, flyash, and most other dry, granular materials that typically reduce valve life. The Series’ standard valve sizes range from 2 in. (50 mm) to 24 in. (600 mm), and fit both ANSI and metric flanges. The inflatable seat design provides a better seal by using air pressure to expand the seat against the disc, providing more sealing area and an even pressure distribution against the disc. The seat also automatically compensates for wear when it inflates against the disc.

Centri-Sifter MO

The Centri-Sifter MO is a medium-capacity centrifugal screener with a cantilevered shaft that has two externally mounted bearings between the screening chamber and the motor drive. This design allows all internals to slide freely from the shaft end for cleaning, screen changes, and inspections. The screener has wide spacing between the bearings, a large-diameter shaft, and a flexible shaft coupling. These features prevent vibration, even at high speeds under heavy, imbalanced loads.

PureFeed AI-300 feeder

The PureFeed AI-300 feeder is available in volumetric and gravimetric configurations for applications such as metering micro ingredients, color pigments, and plastic additives at rates from 0.5 kg/h to approximately 150 kg/h. It is easy to assemble and disassemble, and features a dual-arm external agitation system for maximizing material handling versatility, as well as a disposable, recyclable ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) feed hopper. Its stepper motor allows users to change the penetration agitation speed on the hopper without making any mechanical adjustments.

F-Series inverting filter centrifuge

The F-Series inverting filter centrifuge incorporates several new features, including a compact design and smaller footprint. Operation of the centrifuge produces higher than normal G-forces, which results in lower residual moisture and higher production throughput compared with other models. This feature increases the efficiency of the system, making the process cost-effective. It offers easy clean-in-place (CIP) cleanability for multiproduct application.

Rototherm V vertical thin-film evaporator

The Rototherm V vertical thin-film evaporator has an integral vapor body and demister. The evaporator is the low-cost, small-footprint model in the Rototherm series of products.

DeWatering Super Sack flexible intermediate bulk container

The DeWatering Super Sack flexible intermediate bulk container (FIBC) filters fluid mixtures by retaining solids from draining liquids. The container is made of special porous polypropylene (PP) fabric with very tough warp and weft tensile strengths. It is suitable for use in cake filtering, sludge dewatering, water clarifying, biotreatment, product washing, and product collecting applications
