Clean transfer of toxic bulk material

JOEST delivered two Lifting and Tipping Devices from the MD series with specially designed load handling attachments to a client in Germany.

The machines run on rail tracks so they can easily change between different feeding points. This customized solution that is tailored to the client’s needs, meets highest standards in quality and reliability.

The client was searching for a solution to empty 200-liter steel barrels filled toxic bulk material of various grain sizes into a ball mill and a mixer. The main criterion was for the process to run as dust-free as possible. JOEST’s solution was to equip two Lifting and Tipping Devices from the series MD-6 with specially developed load handling attachments. The new design prevents most of the toxic dust from escaping the system. The entire load handling attachment is in a dust-tight enclosure and features a stainless-steel funnel with a pneumatic cover flap.

In the upper position where the barrel is emptied, and in the lower position where the barrel is exchanged, the machine is automatically connected to a dust extraction system.

The barrel is fixed to the system and an inflatable seal seals the barrel around the mantel. At the funnel exit and the feed points, there are automatic shut-off flaps and seals to prevent the material from leaving the system. Furthermore, the drive has a frequency control to adjust the speed of the machine. A shaker helps with the residual dis-
charge.

The low dust design of the load han-d-ling attachment provides operational safety in the workshop. Additionally, it prevents expensive loss of material. The angled head enables precise dock-ing and a safe material transfer to fol-lowing machines. Finally, multiple feed points are connected to the system via rail tracks.

Resonance Conveyor for Slag

The high requirements of waste to energy plants as well as systems with low energy demands are no novelty for JOEST.
With these resonance conveyors for Hitachi Zosen Inova, the material can optionally be fed to another unit via an intermediate opening with integrated JOEST Grizzly Screen. Another highlight is the low drive power of only 4 kW.

Lithium Process
Equipment

In recent years, JOEST Australia has increased its footprint within the Australian battery metals industry. JOEST Australia has delivered a package of 20 new machines comprising 18 different sizes and configurations, from dry scalping and sizing through to wet screening applications, to process the spodumene ore used in the conversion process to yield lithium hydroxide for the expanding battery industry. Due to the project‘s specific requirements, JOEST Australia personnel worked in close collaboration with the customer’s process design team to optimise the feeding and screening equipment used in this latest landmark greenfield project.

Technically most modern iron ore mine worldwide

Recently, JOEST Australia has successfully supplied and commissioned its largest single package of machines, under contract to a major iron ore supplier. This contract comprised seven double deck multi-slope screens and vibrating feeders. The customer’s iron ore processing facility is purported to be one of the most technically advanced iron ore mines in operation. The collaboration of JOEST Australia personnel with the customer’s Engineering Procurement Contract Managers (EPCM) enabled the condition monitoring for the equipment package to be integrated into the plant process control.

JOEST System Solution for dry ice dosing

To dose dry ice pellets from their transportation boxes into special isolation containers, JOEST delivered a system solution to the global specialist ASCO Carbon Dioxide this year. Realistic tests at the JOEST Test Center gave insight to the handling of dry ice at extremely low temperatures – at standard pressure -78°C – and the effects it has on the equipment. This data was analyzed by product specialists at JOEST and implemented in the details of the engineering design. The client’s demand was to dose the dry ice pellets with high precision, but without destroying them. A big challenge was the large difference in temperature between the product and the environment. Varying transportation boxes on the feed end, adjustable batch sizes and intermediate storage of the box volume were additional features demanded for the system solution.
