Equipment Selection & Customization

Industrial processing equipment installed inside a modern production workshop
Performance Begins With the Duty Point Process method, working volume, drive power, residence time, wear resistance and interfaces.
Application-Based Selection

A Machine Configuration
Built Around the Duty

Reliable output depends on more than nominal capacity. Material behavior, particle-size change, mixing uniformity, pellet quality, operating hours and connected equipment determine the correct model and configuration.

1
Standalone equipment

New process step, capacity upgrade or direct replacement with defined inlet, outlet, drive and control requirements.

2
Customized machine

Adapted contact materials, wear protection, feeding, discharge, motor, cleaning access and automation.

3
Complete production line

Cleaning, size reduction, batching, mixing, pelleting, cooling, conveying and packaging balanced as one system.

Sizing Inputs

Eight Inputs That Determine Machine Size

Every selection is anchored to a defined operating window. These inputs control process type, working volume, drive power, wear protection, utilities and interface dimensions.

M

Material Profile

Composition, bulk density, moisture, temperature, abrasiveness, cohesiveness and flow behavior.

C

Duty Capacity

Normal t/h, peak t/h, batch size, operating hours, annual tonnage and required availability.

P

Product Target

Finished form, particle-size distribution, mix uniformity, pellet diameter, density and tolerances.

S

Incoming Condition

Minimum and maximum feed size, impurity load, temperature variation and upstream consistency.

↕

Process Position

Upstream equipment, buffer volume, inlet height, downstream transfer and required interlocks.

V

Site Utilities

Voltage, frequency, available power, compressed air, steam, water and dust-collection capacity.

A

Control Level

Standalone starter, VFD, local HMI, PLC integration, recipes, alarms and production data.

E

Operating Environment

Hygiene class, dust zone, corrosion, ambient temperature, altitude, cleaning and access limits.

Selection Logic

Six Decisions Behind the Model Number

The final equipment specification connects product quality, production capacity and lifecycle requirements to a defined mechanical and electrical configuration.

01

Application

Cleaning, crushing, mixing, pelleting, cooling, conveying or packaging duty.

02

Material Profile

Density, moisture, size, abrasiveness and flow characteristics.

03

Duty Point

Normal output, peak load, batch cycle and daily operating hours.

04

Process Type

Operating principle selected for the required product change and quality.

05

Configuration

Materials, drive, feed, discharge, controls, cleaning and safety options.

06

Technical Scope

Interfaces, accessories, documentation, testing, installation and spare parts.

Equipment Range

Machines for Every Process Stage

Individual equipment and compatible auxiliaries cover raw-material preparation through finished-product handling. Selection depends on material properties, required capacity and finished-product targets.

01

Cleaning & Separation

Remove ferrous metal, stones, oversized particles, light impurities and dust before processing.

Technical Questions Before Ordering

Direct answers covering preliminary model choice, machine customization, production capacity, existing-line connections and quotation scope.

01 Can a preliminary model be selected with limited data?

Material name, expected capacity, finished-product target and destination country define a preliminary product family and size range. Final selection additionally requires moisture, bulk density, feed size, operating hours and interface conditions.

Available options include product-contact materials, wear liners, motor and voltage, feeding and discharge arrangements, inspection access, aspiration ports, sensors, local controls and PLC communication.

Line capacity follows the required finished output, actual operating time and limiting process stage. Surge bins, batch cycles, changeover, maintenance and product variation are included in the capacity balance.

Connection requirements include upstream and downstream capacity, inlet and outlet dimensions, installation height, support loads, utilities, controls, interlocks and available maintenance space.

The quotation identifies model, rated duty point, principal construction materials, installed power, dimensions, standard accessories, controls, documentation, delivery terms, exclusions and available options.
