Expandet up to 10,000 kg Modern industrial weighing technology requires accuracy and reliability. The "shearbeam" load cells proved their worth for this. They appear to be robust and easy to install. Moreover the available carrying capacities, from 300 to 10,000 kg, permit their use in almost any application. However, in practice, the excellent characteristics of these load cells are not always the reality. This because an optimal result requires a perfect mounting. Here these new loading assemblies offer security. The stable base plate gives the sensor a perfect surface, a threaded rod makes the weighing unit windproof for outdoor applications and a rubber damper protects the load cell against vibrations and stray and ground currents. You have the choice out of zinc plated alloy steel and stainless steel models.

Turnkey Solutions for Plastics Industry Polimak has successfully completed polyethylene handling projects for a global composite manufacturer. The client`s demand was to achieve a seamless bulk material handling solution from raw material delivery to the feeding of the production line. The turnkey project includes an automatic sack discharging system, pneumatic conveying system, stainless steel storage silos, and extruder feeding system. All components of the system are controlled from a central PLC system for fully automated operation. The core component of the project was an automatic bag discharge system that enables bulk materials coming from sacks to be unloaded in an efficient and safe way of saving manpower, time and operational costs. Bags with 15 to 50 kg on plastic or wooden pallets are placed on the belt conveyor of the system together with pallet by forklift. A conveyor moves the pallet to the bag lifting unit. The automatic gripping system grips the bags on the top with pneumatically driven
