Pan conveyors and bucket conveyors for clinker handling.

For almost of one century Gambarotta Gschwendt (Italy) have developed and manufactured some thousand pan conveyors for a wide range of bulk solid materials. Thanks to its continuous research and development effort and to the quality of its equipment, addressed to their maximum reliability, GambarottaGschwendt maintainsaleadingposition among the manufacturers of pan conveyors. Conveying equipment used in clinker handling is required to meet specific conditions to enable safe operation in the cement plant. No leakage and the ability to withstand high temperatures are particularly important when dealing with incandescent material such as clinker. This article aimes to illustrate the various types of conveying characteristics required to handle clinker on the move.
