  • Steel Plants
  • Cement Factories
  • Chemical Industries
  • Fertilizer Industries
  • Food Industries
Technical Specifications:
  • Accuracy: +/- 0.5 %
  • Belt width: up to 2000 mm
  • Load cells, protection degree IP68
  • Drive pulley with rubber lagging to avoid belt slip
  • Easy belt replacement (lateral) without pulley disassembling

LOADERS

Truck & Railcar Loaders

Truck Loaders can be used with the aim to facilitate the loading of trucks by means of platforms and feeder devices. Basically, a machine operates on a platform located beneath a feeder device. In a next step, the loose products (bags, cartons, etc.) can be transported from the feeder device by a diverter system directly or through a carriage onto slewing / luffing telescopic conveyors on the left or right side, in order to load trucks.

CONVEYORS

Belt Conveyors

thenex supplies a wide range of belt conveyors for heavy duty applications.
Those are designed on the basis of customer technical requisitions and according to international standards.

Application Fields:

  • Fertilizer Industries
  • Steel Plants
  • Cement Factories
  • Chemical Industries
  • Power plants

Technical Specifications:

  • Capacity: up to 1500 t/h
  • Belt width: 500 – 2000 mm
  • Heavy duty frames
  • Drive unit with electric motor, gear reducer; fluid coupling for installed power over 11 kW
  • Primary belt cleaner and V- plough scraper
  • Lateral protection grids along the access sides
  • Local push button station for start/stop operations
  • Complete automation system for conveyors line

Telescopic Conveyors

The telescopic conveyor is designed under heavy duty and high safety standards; they are mainly used to transfer loose products (bags, cartons, etc.) from warehouse to trucks.
It allows the user to speed up non-palletized loading-unloading work on vehicles and containers, allowing packages to be positioned without having to lift them, reducing labour requirements.

Application Fields:

  • Bags
  • Cartons
  • Bales
  • Small and big tyres, rolls of rubber
  • Polyurethane and polystyrene panels
  • Loose materials

Technical Specifications:

  • Belt width: standard= 600mm; max=2000mm
  • Capacity: 100kg on mobile head at max. extension
  • Material: carbon steel
  • Capacity up to 1500kg at tip

Pipe Conveyors

The Pipe conveyor is a special type of belt conveyor, where, between the head and tail pulley, the belt is formed into a pipe, both on the carrying side and the return run. Typically, the material to be conveyed is delivered to the belt at an end of the belt while the belt is open. Then, the belt is gradually rolled up by means of pipe forming idlers into a tubular shape with overlapping edges. By maintaining the overlap on top of the circular cross section, the conveyor ensures that the material is conveyed to the head terminal.

Technical Specifications:

  • Capacity: up to 1500 t/h
  • Pipe diameter: 150 – 400 mm
  • Length and height: on request

BUCKET ELEVATORS

The bucket elevator consists of a series of buckets mounted on chain or belt operating over head and tail pulleys.
Take-up provides the compensation for variation in length of chain or belt.
The bucket elevator is composed by the head and tail casings and an intermediate casing, that encloses the bucket line.
Application Fields:
  • Fertilizer Industries
  • Steel Plants
  • Cement Factories
  • Chemical Industries
  • Power plants

CHUTES

Telescopic Chutes

The telescopic chute is designed for loading bulk material on trucks, trains, ships, inside storages. Generally, it is provided with inner cones or tubes to contain the flow of material and an outer flexible bellow to limit the propagation of dusts.
It is operated by an electric hoist with lifting cables outside the material flow that raises and lowers the bellows with cones without cable wear.
Also available with double bellow for nonabrasive materials.

Fields of Application:

  • Loading of products on trucks, tankers, trains, ships, inside storages in:
  • Steel Plants
  • Cement Factories
  • Chemical Industries
  • Fertilizer Industries
  • Food Industries

Technical Specifications:

  • Capacity: up to 8000 t/h
  • Inlet diameter: 250 to 900 mm
  • Material: carbon steel, stainless steel, wear resistant lining
    Length: on request
  • suitable for low temperature (up to -40°C) or for high temperature (up to 120°C)
