Seal Applications
Our CinchSeals are used in a wide variety of applications including drive end gear reducers, screw conveyors, bucket elevators, ribbon blenders, paddle mixers, size reduction equipment, drying equipment, extractors, extruders, fans, blowers and rotary valves. We have numerous case studies which show our CinchSeals solving real world application problems. Application Questions to Ask.
| Industry | Application |
|---|---|
| Aggregate | Used for handling small capacities of aggregates or sand. Also used for the air pollution control systems for handling dust. |
| Brewing | Used for grain and hops conveying and storage. |
| Cement | Used for handling Portland cement and cement clinker. Also used for the air pollution control systems for handling dust. |
| Chemical | Used for handling all types of bulk granular chemicals. Screw conveyors are ideal since they enclose the material and prevent contamination. |
| Feed and Grain | Used for truck or rail car dump systems and for elevating material to top of storage bins. |
| Food | Used for all types of food handling. Ideal for screws and blenders because they can be fully enclosed and manufactured to meet FDA standards. |
| Gypsum | Used for handling raw powdered gypsum. Ideal for screw conveyors because they can be fully enclosed for dust-tight operation. |
| Ice Handling | Used for handling crushed ice. Ice can be enclosed in conveyor and kept clean. Water leakage is eliminated. |
| Mining and Metals | Used for feeding, conveying, mixing and blending of salt and other materials. Screw conveyors are typically manufactured from 304 or 316 stainless steel. |
| Power | Used for industrial and commercial boiler feed and take-away systems. Feed coal or other products into the boiler and carry fly ash out of the boiler. Potential hi-temp application. |
| Pulp and Paper | Used for handling paper pulp, wood waste, sawdust, bark chips, wood chips and lime. |
| Poultry Processing | Used for handling offal. Offal is a raw meat byproduct. Screws enclose the material and can easily be washed down. |
| Rendering | Used for all material handling. Ideal application for screw conveyors because material is contained and can be easily washed down. |
| Wastewater Treatment | Used for de-watering grit and to convey, store and unload biosolids. Excellent application for shaftless screw conveyors. |
