Greetings!
While you might not look forward to summer ending, with its backyard cook-outs, relaxing pool days, and homework-free evenings, Fall is here. Still, others might look to the Fall season with excitement, as football season ramps up and the air turns crisp and cool. After all, not much beats the magic of watching the leaves change color, pumpkin bread, and every other pumpkin-flavored thing you can imagine, apple picking, and some of the most popular holidays are approaching. The first day of Fall was Thursday, September 22.
Once fall arrives, some might start thinking about changing their clock. Not so fast! We have a few more weeks before Daylight Savings ends. This year, those that it affects "fall back" on Sunday, November 6.
Enjoy,
Aaron Hawkins
Director of Business Development

Although my answer here will focus on abrasion resistance enhancement in chutes, transitions, spouts, and hoppers, it is important to keep in mind that liner selection will offer inherent differences with regard to the other above parameters.
We all have struggled at times with liner selection, comparing useful life with or without liners to upfront capital cost. The applications for liners are diverse in bulk material handling. Many of the materials handled impose potential severe wear in areas of impact and sliding.
As it applies to these applications, abrasion is the gradual removal of a surface as a result of contact with another material. In the case of liners, this can be imposed by the impact or the sliding of materials such as aggregates or whole grain or by the impact of high-velocity dust particles on the exposed surface. More specifically, this wear can be...Read More>>>
