Messersmith Manufacturing, Inc. products

The Messersmith traveling auger system is a low cost solution to many material handling problems. Proven technology ensures that each installation will provide years of dependable operation with many user friendly options. 

Metering bins provide short term material storage and variable material flow. Process driven material modulation is made possible by the PLC in the control panel. The PLC dictates the rotational speed of the metering augers. Dependable sensors are part of the metering bin system. They control material delivery from the traveling auger and belt conveyor, thus keeping the metering bin full.

Belt conveyors are available to work with a traveling auger and provide dependable, cost effective material transfer. Low energy consumption minimizes operational cost. A material sorter is built into the conveyor system to remove over length material. This will minimize jams in downstream augers by keeping large pieces out of the metering bin.

The control panel manages the entire process and monitors all equipment for proper operation. Messersmith systems are known for their simple, robust mechanical design that provides the operator with low maintenance and low downtime. This design, combined with state-of-the-art control technology, results in a user friendly system that can be viewed remotely by computer or smart phone.

Messersmith offers several options for particulate emissions control.  Cyclones and Multi-cyclones are typically used on boiler systems with an input under 10MMBTU/hr, although some state and local regulations may require additional emissions control devices to meet requirements.  Boiler systems with an input over 10MMBTU/hr will require an Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) or a Baghouse to meet EPA particulate emissions requirements.  Some facilities opt for best available technology for their boiler plants.  Messersmith designers can help specify the proper equipment needed for each facility.
