Feed hopper ABRALINE IV

loadingdistributiondosing

Overview
ABRALINE IV ADVANCED monitors and controls abrasive availability throughout the cutting process to ensure a constant abrasive flow, protect workpieces and reduce downtime. Designed for large continuous cutting machines and multi-head applications. Capacity: 1,000 kg.

Applications

• Metal
• Stone
• Glass

Design and operation

• Two-tank concept: a large upper silo supplies an adjacent lower tank that is pressurized to feed abrasive to dosing systems.
• The lower tank is pressurized with compressed air; a flexible hose conveys abrasive to each cutting head's dosing unit.
• Dual-tank arrangement ensures continuous abrasive flow with automatic transfer from the upper silo to the lower tank.

Control and monitoring

• Control cabinet with a relay continuously monitors operating states and sends signals to the pneumatic system and indicator lights.
• Level sensors installed at the sand outlets of both tanks are monitored by the control station; when the lower tank reaches minimum level the relay opens the inlet valve to refill automatically.
• If the upper silo level is low, a flashing warning light notifies the operator to refill the silo.

Variants

• ABRALINE IV ADVANCED – capacity 1,000 kg, suitable for large continuous multi-head cutting machines.
• ABRALINE V – smaller version, capacity approx. 425 kg, suitable for medium cutting requirements.
