‘Conveyors’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Split roller bearings used on colliery conveyors from Revolvo, which we summarised at the time by saying "SRB Split Roller Bearings from Revolvo are being used at the Hatfield Colliery near Doncaster. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Accelerometers obtain hazardous-area certification from Wilcoxon Research: "Wilcoxon Research has announced an additional intrinsically safe certification in accordance with IECEx requirements for six general-purpose accelerometers.".
 
In November 2009, we covered the news from MiniTec UK - take a look at MiniTec catalogues feature conveyor systems which says: "MiniTec UK has released two catalogues featuring its Profi-Team conveyor systems for assembly and inspection lines. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Vitronic, Vitronic provides volume measuring for parcels, as well as Autotech supplies control systems for distillers from Autotech Controls, and Split bearings provide reduced maintenance costs from Schaeffler (UK).
