The''' Wheel Conveyor''' is used in the blasting and side extrusion coating lines. The pipe will move forward while it is rotating (helix movement).The wheel angle adjustment is activated by means of spindle jacks, powered by an electric motor. The helix adjustment is fitted to accomplish an adjustable rotation versus linear movement of the pipe.A frequency control system in sections is provided to obtain a variable pipe production speed and to catch-up and brake-away the pipes at the incoming and outgoing parts of the conveyor, by increasing the conveyor speed of the relevant section.In order to set the width of the pipe for a specific pipe diameter, the conveyor is fitted with a width-adjustment system. | |||
