Major order for a bunker discharge system with two screening machines
JOEST received an order for a bunker discharge system with two screening machines for a German steel plant. The screening material is coke.
The scope of supply includes two screening machines with the dimensions of 1,900 x 5,500 mm, two oscillating conveyors and the bin outlet chutes. The first screening machine has already been successfully installed.
The very high quality standards of the customer have been monitored continously by the costumer over the entire production process of the screening machines. These included ultrasonic testing of welds up to the machine’s coat of paint which were accompanied and approved by external auditors of the customer. With JOEST high quality standards there were no complaints at all. The screening machines with a weight of 9 tons each are driven by a robust JOEST exciter and – as a protection against wear – screens and vibrating conveyors were equipped with a ceramic lining, thus allowing a very long service life time of the plant.

In conventional exciters, the bearings are lubricated by oil mist. The gears inside the housing churn the oil into fine droplets, which are distributed within the gearbox. Only a portion of these droplets reaches the rolling bearings and provide the lubrication. Some housings have oil collection pockets on the inside. These are intended to guide the oil along the inner surfaces of the housing downwards into the bearings. However, the entry of oil into the bearings is random and the quantity is undetermined. To improve the entire lubrication, the JOEST Oil Management System has been developed.
