Mechanical Transport Equipment
topic
Mechanical transport includes conveyor belts (high speed, used as collector belts in mixing batteries), lattices (endless belts with closely spaced hardwood crossbars, better forwarding than belts), and inclined/spiked lattices (steel spikes at angles in crossbars, operated up to 100 m/min). Modern conveyor belts use fibre-free multi-layer surfaces without crossbars.
Role
Mechanical transport within machines provides controlled material forwarding. Inclined lattices interact with evener rollers and function primarily as opening devices. The forwarding speed is usually very low for lattices, matching the relatively slow feed requirements of blowroom machines.
