Slipstick Industrial Conveyor for Hot Bottom Ash
Covanta and Triple/S have been working together for nearly three decades. Our first project with the Reworld, formerly known as Covanta, is one of our longest conveyors constructed to date. Their initial purchase with Triple/S back in 1995 was for their Niagra Falls facility with the purpose of conveying abrasive and hot bottom ash through four dischargers. After 25 years, this conveyor reached the end of its lifetime.
Reworld’s most recent Slipstick purchase comes equipped with several new and improved features. One of the main upgrades was getting the drive down to a smaller size while still supporting the same power as before. Other features are set to improve maintenance downtime by making access to rods more accessible and goal support structures less of an obstacle.
Features for this Slipstick Vibratory Conveyor include:
- A pan 4 feet wide and more than 250 feet long, the single drive, continuous pan Slipstick Conveyors provide our clients with a reliable conveying solution that lasts and lasts (even through the toughest applications).
- Slipstick pans often fit within those tight spaces. The pans can be narrow & tall OR wide & short to accommodate the client’s capacity requirements — in this application, within the tunnel, underneath the tracks.
- Free of vertical pitching forces, the self-balancing forced vibration Slipstick Horizontal Motion Conveyor moves the client’s product with a pure sliding motion. Doesn’t create dust.
- Without being tied to components such as belts and rollers, Slipstick conveyor pans utilize rubber bushed end stainless steel suspension rods typically spaced at intervals of 10-15 ft apart. Few maintenance items.
