The hoppers of storage vessels and containers in bulk solids processing plants often appear to be afflicted with mumps or measles. But on closer inspection, it’s clear that the rash-like disease isn’t biological. Rather it’s caused by humans who bash the hopper sides with sledgehammers, steel rods, baseball bats, or anything else that can help dislodge powder buildup inside the hopper and get it flowing again. I believe you all call it “hammer rash”. Not only can this violence lead to arm or back injuries for the workers swinging the hammer, but the noise it generates is ear-rattling.
So why not let us coat the interior of your hoppers so that your product slides out easier? Belzona has a multitude of products that can be used. Some are NSF approved; others are approved for incidental contact with foodstuffs. Whichever way, we have a solution that will fit your needs.
Tell us, how can we help repair, protect and improve your component equipment?
