Conveying Technology

After more than 30 years, Amsterdam-based waste processing company AEB is replacing a total of eight JOEST conveyors to optimize slag transport and improve operational performance.

At JOEST, we always focus on efficiency and reliability when it comes to successfully implementing complex projects. A current example of this is the full modernization of a green sand line at our long-standing partner Fritz Winter – and that in an impressively short time.

In February, JOEST secured an order for the delivery of a specialized 15-meter-long vibrating conveyor for a Serbian producer of sugar products. This machine is an integral part of the production process, conveying freshly centrifuged sugar with a throughput of up to 70 tons per hour at a moisture content of 0,2-0,4% and a product temperature of about 65°C.

At JOEST, we take pride in optimizing our customers’ production with innovative technologies and customized solutions. A recent example is our collaboration with HYDROTEC Technologies AG, an internationally operating company with over 50 years of experience and a clear vision: to continuously improve.

This innovative conveying solution with dimensions of 1950 mm wide and 2640 mm long sets new standards in the processing of moist and fine-grained waste slag. For a rust-ash processing system from Eggersmann Anlagenbau, JOEST installed a modern OSCILLA FlexFeed flip flow feeder.

Exciting project for sustainability: the largest machines we’ve built to date – two massive 30-ton Charging Feeder. These machines play a critical role in reducing CO₂ emissions on a large scale.

JOEST delivered two high-performance vibrating feeder including tunnel frame, discharge chute and needle gate, each one feeding gabbro up to an edge length of 700 mm as a free stockpile discharge. Our focus was on a robust, blockage-free, wear-optimized and installation-friendly design.

For our long-standing customer, Dyckerhoff company, we have now exchanged JOEST tube type feeder at two star distributors for silo loading during the winter overhaul for the 4th year in a row, thus reaching the halfway point of the overall project.

JOEST delivered several types of machines from its product portfolio for castings for a customer‘s complete system. To simplify and enhance the original process of storing casting parts in boxes for the cooling process, a JOEST Casting Cooler was installed downstream the existing shakeout.

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.

GOESSLING has worked with their client KAMAX in Hessen even prior to the acquisition by JOEST group. The KAMAX group is a leading supplier for heavy duty fasteners for the transportation industry and others. Through several projects in the past, a strong cooperation has been built. Once more, the division GOESSLING was able to convince with the right machines and its expertise and received another order. The client’s demand was to handle the discharge of screws from a thread roller into the client’s containers in a quiet and gentle fashion. An automated operation and complying to space restrictions on site were additional demands.
As a solution, GOESSLING designed and manufactured an L-shaped Hinged-Belt Conveyor with an adjustable incline. The machine has an effective width of 400 mm and an axle-base of 2.400 mm with an incline of 35 degrees.

For the optimization of the foundry and to improve the production process, the Bosch Rexroth AG in “Lohr am Main” is adding a third furnace to its automatic charging system which currently features two furnaces. For this project, a new furnace platform is being built in the neighboring building. The task for JOEST was to find a solution, so that the existing feed equipment for the furnace Charging Vehicles could be reused. The vehicles are fed with metal scraps and additive materials needed for the melting process, both of which are bound to their original location.

This year in September, the division GOESSLING delivered a customized conveying solution to a long-term client that once again relied on the high quality and positive user experience. When manufacturing chassis parts, stamping scrap occurs beneath the stamping press. These scrap parts must be disposed in containers. Using their experience in GOESSLING conveying technology, JOEST was able to offer the client a robust solution with excellent service. The special challenge of this project was that the stamping scrap is charged over a special chute system in the basement onto a Double-Z-Conveyor with an effective width of 625 mm. The scrap is then transferred on a reversible conveyor with the same effective width. At the the transitions, the reversible conveyor has pivoting chutes. The both pivoting slides enable the oily scraps to be distributed into three displaceable containers.

The food manufacturer Driessen Food Extrusion located in Deurne, Netherlands processes mixed, powdered, plant-based proteins to high quality ingredients for the food industry. In order to modernize their production and increase productivity, Driessen Food Extrusion is planning to build a new production line. JOEST received a contract last month to provide large parts of this new production line. For the processing of extruded proteins and production high quality coatings, the #JOESTeam will design and manufacture a complete drying plant. The planned drying system consists of a Fluidized Bed Dryer with processing-, heating-, cooling- and used-air systems as well as a Spiral Conveyor. The system will be delivered in spring 2023.

In June this year, JOEST delivered a customized solution for casted pan dosing to a German client. This specially designed alloy plant features a remarkable dosing precision for aggregates. The client’s demand was to achieve the best precision possible when dosing the two components manganese-iron and silicon-iron. The two hoppers are loaded with the aggregates by the client. Dosing feeders then feed the two container wagons. The wagons are pre-dosed to roughly 20 kg to speed up the actual dosing process. The downstream feeder, which can pivot by 90°, then feeds the material directly into the pouring stream. Depending on the aggregate, the system is designed to dose between 5 and 10 kg and each scale reaches a precision of up to 50 grams.

Once again, GOESSLING delivers its well proven conveying technology to Mexico for a client that already has multiple conveyors in operation around the world. For the disposal and separation of stamping scrap from manufacturing car bodies, the client relies on the quality and good experience with GOESSLING again. The objective here was to sort and dispose aluminum and steel scrap from a total of six steel presses. GOESSLING designed and manufactured eight Hinged Belt Conveyors with a combined length of 130 meters, a partition of 125 mm and an effective width of 1,025 mm. The sidewalls are specially designed for sheet metal scrap. The precision sidewalls of the steel hinged belt and the machined steel bar on the belt frame create a hermetical seal around the circulating curbs and drive chains of the conveyor. Additionally, the material is kept within the effective conveying width and material jams are prevented. The Hinged Belt Convey or is equipped with robust, low maintenance technology.

JOEST manufactured two automaticfeed systems to convey, sort and feedwelding studs and flange nuts. Thesystems are built up of an overheadconveyor with a link chain, a storage container, a linear feeder and a workpiece recirculation. The workpieces are provided manually in a storage container with an effective volume of 320 liters. The container has a steel design and is lined with PU plates. It also features a filling level indicator. The parts are presorted by workpiece specific carrier rails, conveyed upwards and fed into a linear feeder. The linear feeder is equipped with two parallel sorting feeders. On these feed-ers, alignment mechanisms force the workpieces into the correct orientation. Excess or falsely orientated parts are rejected by the linear feeder and are recirculated to the storage container. The sorting feeders are equipped with pneumatic deflectors to prevent the magazine from overflowing and to control the feeding lane in case a screw is left out.

For a client building a phosphatizing plant as a general contractor for a German automotive company, JOEST designed, manufactured and delivered a large system solution this year, to feed and refill the plant. The project started in 2019 but was temporarily set on hold due to the Covid-Pandemic. It was later picked up again and went into production this year. The task was to dose forging parts into baskets provided by the client, based on the demanded formula. The parts are supplied in two different steel containers. The filled baskets are fed into the phosphatizing bath. After the phosphatizing process, the containers are removed and emptied.

For a client from the foundry industry based in Croatia, JOEST designed and manufactured a Shakeout. Its frequency and oscillation angle can be adjusted electronically, and this design includes a downstream feeder with dual-lane discharge. The machines were delivered to Croatia during the second fiscal quarter of 2021. Commissioning is performed and overseen by JOEST and is planned for this summer. The client ‘s demand was to provide a reliable Shakeout that could handle a large spectrum of parts whilst maintaining a small form factor due to space limitations on site. The machine should separate as much sand as possible without damaging the casts made of GERMANY. Cast-/Sand-Shakeout after green sand forming line. JOEST Shakeout with electronically adjustable oscillation parameters gray cast iron and spheroidal graphite iron.
