Daily business for many industries ‒ man- aging bulk materials nonstop. And often outside, in all types of weather. To overcome these challenges, SICK also offers intel- ligent solutions in this area. Transport runs smoothly thanks to laser scans. Measurement and sensor technology from SICK monitors, con- trols and optimizes industrial conveyor systems in a wide range of sectors. This goes far beyond the process gas and emission measurement procedures already established in process automation. Non-contact measurement of the volume or mass flow rates is particularly easy and precise with the flow sensor Bulkscan® LMS511. But solutions for level measurement and complete conveyor monitoring are also in the product range. The skillful interplay of the sensors saves a huge amount of work, time and money. 8022782/2018-05-22 CONVEYOR SYSTEMS | SICK 3 Subject to change withourt notice Conveyor Systems NON-CONTACT TRANSPORT SICK supports nonstop work For optimum production processes, bulk material processors need an exact overview of the quantity of the stored and transported goods. Only in this way can the optimal fill levels be calculated and achieved.

The belt conveyor engineering analysis, infor- mation, and formulas presented in this manual represent recent improvements in the concepts and data which have been developed over the years, using the observations of actual belt conveyor operation and the best mathematical theory. Horsepower (hp) and tension formulas, incorporating successively all the factors affecting the total force needed to move the belt and its load, are presented here in a manner that permits the separate evaluation of the effect of each factor. These formu- las represent the consensus of all CEMA member companies. In recent years, CEMA member companies have developed computer programs capable of complete engineering analysis of the most complex and extensive belt con- veyor systems. These programs are more comprehensive and include more extensive analysis and calculations than can be included in this manual.

  • Kevlar* Aramid, a New Fibre Reinforcement for Conveyor Belting
    KEVLAR* ARAMID, A NEW FIBRE REINFORCEMENT FOR CONVEYOR BELTING B. Pulvermacher Du Pont de Nemours International SA, Geneva, Switzerland ABSTRACT The high tenacity and modulus, and the low elongation and creep of "Kevlar" high strength aramid fibres paired with non-corrosion and excellent thermal and chemical resistance provide the rubber industry with a new reinforcement for high performance conveyor belting. The development of aramid fibres is reviewed. Pertinent properties and characteristics of "Kevlar" are then compared with those of traditional reinforcing materials. European trade experience and advantages of aramid reinforced belting over steel cable and conventional textile fibre reinforced belting are summarised. {* Du Pont's registered trademark} INTRODUCTION The development of the fibre reinforcement in belting has progressed from cotton to rayon and then to the organic fibres Polyester and polyamide and to steel cords and cables. The organic fibres contribute high rot-resistance together with higher achievable strength ratings to belting. The use of steel cords and cables extends the tensile strength range of the belting even further, contributing to greater belt length and lift, lower elongation-in-use and minimum growth. Negatives of steel cord reinforced belting are corrosion propensity, risk of longitudinal slitting and high weight. In what follows we present information on a new fibre reinforcement for conveyor belting which combines the high tenacity and modulus, and the low elongation and creep properties associated normally with steel cords with the low density, non-corrosion and wear characteristics of organic fibres. The presentation is structured as follows: First we review the development of this class of fibres, the aromatic polyamides, today referred to generically as aramids.

  • Regenerative Belt Conveyor Versus Haul Truck-Based Transport: Polish Open-Pit Mines Facing Sustainable Development Challenges
    sustainability Article Regenerative Belt Conveyor versus Haul Truck-Based Transport: Polish Open-Pit Mines Facing Sustainable Development Challenges Witold Kawalec , Robert Król and Natalia Suchorab * Department of Mining and Geodesy, Faculty of Geoengineering, Mining and Geology, Wrocław University of Science and Technology, ul. Na Grobli 15, 50-421 Wrocław, Poland; [email protected] (W.K.); [email protected] (R.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 2 October 2020; Accepted: 3 November 2020; Published: 5 November 2020 Abstract: The mining industry is facing sustainable development challenges, among which the energy efficiency issues seem to be of major importance. As transport of the mined ore is considered as one of the most energy intensive operations, the improvement of its energy efficiency is a key indicator in terms of sustainable actions taken by mining companies. In open-pit mines, the material handling operations are mostly performed with trucks. Their electrified version—truck trolley systems—surpass diesel trucks’ efficiency while comparing the increased production capacity and the reduction of maintenance cost and fuel consumption. The paper analyzes the opportunities and benefits of the replacement of an ore transport system based on hauling trucks with a regenerative belt conveying in an open-pit mine. Presented case study has been analyzed from energy consumption and environmental impact reduction perspectives. Generally, conception of a regenerative conveyor is based on recuperation of energy or continuous braking needed while a conveyor is running downhill. Energy generated during the braking process (converted from the potential gravitational energy of the conveyed material) is fed back to the electrical grid.

  • Efficiency Improvement of Assembly Line
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by UTHM Institutional Repository i EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENT OF ASSEMBLY LINE: CASE STUDY OF BUS SEAT MANUFACTURER YEOH KIM HAO A project report submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the award of the Degree of Master of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering Faculty of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia JUNE 2013 v ABSTRACT In this era of globalization, competition is becoming ever more intense. Manufacturing companies must not only compete locally but also on a global basis. Reducing manufacturing costs without sacrificing product quality is vital for the survival of manufacturing companies in a global market. With the increasing of market competition, the line balancing problem especially the assembly line balancing plays an important role for the industries to obtain the high quality and lowest cost. Assembly line plays a critical role in enabling a factory to deliver on time and at the right quantity and quality. This project main purpose is to assist in making an assembly line more efficient and productive through improving its line efficiency. The focus is on a bus seat assembly line. A manufacturing company faces difficulties in delivery on time. The core cause is the inefficiency of assembly line in the bus seat manufacturer. Therefore, the study will concentrate on manufacturer’s problem, which is efficiency of assembly line balancing for VIP seats. This research will attempt to overcome the problem by balancing its line and improved its efficiency. It also involves minimizing the number of stations and minimizing the balance delay time (sum of idle time).
