Conveyors - Chain Conveyors

Remcon - Drag Chain Conveyor with Rubber/PVC Belt

The Drag Chain Conveyor with Rubber/PVC Belt by Remcon is a fundamental type of chain belt conveyor. Designed for durability and flexibility, the conveyor employs a chain that moves on tracks made of angle iron with UHMW wear surfaces to minimize friction. The interconnected rubber or PVC belting, attached to steel cross members, forms a robust carrying surface. The chain is driven by sprockets on both ends of the conveyor, with the discharge end powered by a motor and reducer for efficient movement of materials. Remcon offers various orientation options, including in-ground and above-ground installations, as per layout specifications. The conveyor frame's heavy-duty open construction with structural shapes and plates ensures rigidity and allows expansive access for maintenance. Built in long sections up to 40 feet, these conveyors are assembled with precise alignment to prevent belt wandering. High-strength impact beams and customizable chain pitches contribute to robust performance. A VFD is recommended for enhanced operability. The conveyor features self-cleaning belt return chutes, hinged guards for drive components, and convenient clean-out doors. These Remcon conveyors are fabricated to meet specific application requirements, ensuring reliability in demanding environments.

Remcon - Roller Chain Belt Conveyors for Heavy-Duty Material Handling

Remcon's Roller Chain Belt Conveyors are widely used for recycling and heavy-duty material handling applications. These conveyors feature steel rollers integrated into each chain link that roll along rail tracks, reducing belt drag and enabling efficient conveyance of heavy loads with minimal power usage. The chain belt is guided around both ends of the conveyor by sprockets driven by a motor with a reducer. The conveyors offer multiple belt options, including a combo belt with rubber or PVC bolted to steel cross members for a lightweight yet durable surface, and a steel belt with steel pans for a heavy-duty, heat-resistant surface. Remcon provides flexibility in conveyor orientation, offering both ground-level and in-pit installations. The conveyors are designed with heavy-duty open frame construction for structural integrity and ease of maintenance. Special features include VFD compatibility, enlarged maintenance access, hinged guards, maintenance backstops, self-cleaning belt return chutes, debris clean-out doors, and automatic chain oilers. Remcon fabricates conveyor sections up to 40 feet long and ensures precise alignment to prevent belt wandering and excessive wear.

Sorting & Separation Equipment

Remcon - Rotating Drum Screens for Recycling and Waste Management

The rotating drum screens, also known as trommels, from Remcon are designed for efficient sizing and separation of various recyclable materials such as paper, aluminum cans, and plastic bottles. These screens feature customizable opening sizes that can be installed on the same trommel drum for graduated separation. The trunnion style screen avoids internal frame members, reducing clogging from materials like plastic bags. Constructed from heavy-duty steel and equipped with polyurethane castors, the screens offer durability and longevity. The trommel drum itself is precision CNC burnt for smooth rolling, driven by a belt with easy tension adjustments. Further, it features a robust motor from Teco-Westinghouse and a Brook Hansen helical gear reducer adhering to the American Gear Manufacturers Association class 2 rating. The design meets OSHA safety requirements and offers various adjustment options for incline, ranging from fixed positions to fine-tuning via screw adjustments. Overall, these trommels are built for performance in rigorous recycling environments.

Remcon - Eddy Current Aluminum Separator

The Eddy Current Aluminum Separator by REMCON uses an innovative design featuring rare earth magnets in its head pulley to effectively remove aluminum and ferrous materials from mixed recyclable streams. It is engineered to precisely separate materials, repelling aluminum into a dedicated chute ahead of the pulley while attracting ferrous materials to another chute behind the pulley. The separator's conveyor belts are designed with high durability in mind, using 3/8-inch thick flat bar slat construction and slider-style edges to reduce wear. The high-frequency welded PVC sidewalls, supported by steel skirting, prevent debris infiltration. The rotor, equipped with high-grade rare-earth permanent magnets, is available in 12, 14, or 16 inches diameters to handle varying aluminum object sizes. Its design, incorporating a Dodge Torque Arm II gear reducer, Nord Flexbloc worm-gear style shaft-mounted gear motor, and TECO-Westinghouse motors, ensures reliable performance and long operational life. The separator operates at a fixed speed of 200 feet per minute and features robust monitoring and safety elements like cable-pull switches to comply with OSHA regulations.
