Archimedys™ equips lines for transporting powdered dyes

Archimedys™, a technological revolution for transporting powdered dyes

Many industries use Archimedian screws to convey bulk products. A real technological revolution is underway with the arrival on the market of Archimedys™ modular polymer screw conveyors. Its advantages are numerous, and more and more manufacturers are deciding to abandon the traditional steel screw in favor of Archimedys™, particularly for transporting powdered dyes.

The world leader in powdered ceramic colorants uses Archimedys™

The colorants and pigments bring color to ceramics and tiles. tiles. They are usually oxides or combinations of oxides in powder form. powder form. These metal oxide powders and pigments are particularly particularly abrasive. They are transported to the various production using screw conveyors.

Until now, the world's leading producer of colorants for ceramics and tiles, based in Spain, used steel screws. These were quickly corroded and caused maintenance problems. Repairing the steel screws required frequent shutdowns, loss of production and high maintenance costs. and high maintenance costs. After a very successful trial, all the conveyors at his plant were fitted with dozens of Archimedys™ modular screws.

Traditional steel screw problems solved!

Indeed, with a simple design and compact, the Archimedys™ screw is lighter than a steel screw. It's easy to build, seamless, by assembly standard modules along an axis, directly on site or on site or in the workshop.

Visit polymer used to manufacture the Archimedys™ screw attenuates noise in service. It also features, high corrosion resistanceto acids, bases and a host of aggressive chemicals. Its resistance to abrasion resistance is in some cases three times greater than that of steel.

In the event of an incident and destruction of an area of the screw, the damaged modules are simply replaced. Maintenance operations are quick and reduce the impact on productivity.
