Hopper conveyor - Import export

Elevate oily, thin gauge scrap without carryover. PRAB’s Pivot Belt Conveyors with Rigidized™ belt surface prevents scrap from sticking to the belt, and its exclusively-designed pivoting hinges flip scrap into hoppers. PRAB pivot belt conveyors have a Rigidized™ belt surface that prevents scrap from sticking to the belt, and the exclusively-designed pivoting hinges flip scrap into your hopper. This scrap conveyor includes a seamless one-piece pan that collects oily fluids below, reducing housekeeping headaches while keeping workers safer and more productive

During metal scrap processing, conveyance systems using augers or steel belts frequently fail to consistently move bushy bundles of metal scrap because the augers and steel belts are unable to grab hold of the stringy wads. This limitation causes the bundles to bounce around the in-feed hopper until an operator manually breaks them up, or forces the bundle up the conveyor. This practice is both inefficient and unsafe. The PRAB Bundle Breaker installs in a conveyor’s in-feed hopper, where dual rotating cylinders agitate the material, tearing stringy wads of chips, turnings, and bundles apart to allow for effective processing in downstream equipment. The PRAB Bundle Breaker may be added to an existing conveyor or incorporated into a new PRAB metal scrap processing system.

Reduce metal turnings and bulky wads into shovel-grade chips with a vertical axis crusher. The PRAB vertical axis metal crusher provides continuous, positive feed operation for high volume scrap reduction on the plant floor. Nested wads of metal turnings take up valuable floor space, are a safety hazard and have reduced scrap metal recycling value due to added processing costs. The PRAB vertical axis crusher is one of the most effective pieces of scrap metal processing equipment for quickly and safely creating flowable, thumbnail-sized chips from wads of turnings. Turnings are fed into the crusher’s feed hopper either by self-dumping hoppers, a plant-wide conveyor system, or an automated dump system with standard barrels or chip carts. The crusher’s feed hopper housing -with fixed cast cutters and rotating cutter- then directs the material down into the fixed and rotating cutter rings, where the material is reduced to flowable thumbnail sized chips.
