椿本バルクシステム Company Overview

We will introduce a case where the bucket adhesion issue was mitigated and operational troubles were resolved.

There was a problem with high adhesion growth of the transported material (calcium carbonate with a moisture content of about 1-4%) inside the bucket, which caused the overload safety device to activate due to rising current values, leading to frequent emergency stops of the conveyor. Therefore, we proposed the "Tsubaki NAB-R Apron Beta (Continuous Rubber Bottom Bucket Specification)." This resulted in a reduction of adhesion to the bucket and achieved zero emergency stops of the conveyor. 【Case Summary】 ■ Issues - Cleaning inside the bucket was required every time the conveyor stopped, leading to unnecessary labor. ■ Reason for Proposal - Corrosion of the casing and wear of the chain sprocket were also progressing, so we updated the entire conveyor system by changing the contact parts of the case to stainless steel and altering the material of the chain sprocket. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
