Flexible Screw Conveyors for Harsh and Demanding Applications
National Bulk Equipment, Inc.
Application-specific flexible screw conveyors and hoppers are built for harsh applications. Gear drives and motors are sized to ensure optimal output torque and motor horsepower. Discharge head is 12 ga 304 stainless steel, formed and welded with continuous-weld seams; eliminating the gaps, bolts, and joints common with bolt-together sheet metal construction. Flexible screw materials of construction and flight designs enable sustained conveying, at designed capacities, of the most rugged materials and rigorous bulk densities.

Measure Viscous Flow
How do you measure flow of difficult fluids like oil or solvents? The answer in this video: positive displacement oval gear meters. They perform accurate, linear, repeatable measurements over their entire range from almost zero to 400 GPM, even if viscosity is changing or flow is pulsating. And with only two moving parts, maintenance is simple.

Set Up a PID Without the Math
It's as easy as one, two, three. Rule number one: Do the P, I, and D adjustments one at a time. Start with Proportional gain, which controls how quickly the controlled variable reaches the setpoint. Then go on to Integral time to tame oscillations. Finally the Derivative can guide the process to the setpoint without overshoot.

Feedback Checklist
Open loop control may cost less to install, but you could pay more in the end. One problem is that process results can vary due to changes in line voltage, ambient temperature, or inconsistent settings. Control Engineering offers a seven-point guide to closing the loop.

Mixer Extruder Pumps Up the Profits
Jaygo, Inc.
Double Arm Mixer Extruders are designed for the production of high viscosity adhesives, sealants, caulks, putties, silicones, ceramics, and other viscous products. The use of an Extrusion Screw minimizes product contact with the atmosphere, safeguarding operators and product quality, and making the system better suited to coupling with converting or filling equipment.
