KNIFEGATES
Knifegates are used to control the flow of material in pneumatic convey lines. Knifegates provide a high-quality vacuum-tight seal, helping ensure reliable resin conveying and consistent material flow throughout the system.
Knifegates are commonly used at the outlets of vacuum receivers and vacuum systems, as material line check valves, and on weigh hoppers. They are suitable for both above-ground and underground installation.
Knifegates are suitable for both above-ground and underground installation. ABS, a leading Knifegates supplier in Wallace, provides the right type of valve to help avoid high replacement costs. When fully open, these valves do not obstruct the flow path, resulting in low-pressure loss. Such valves are used for a wide range of materials and can withstand significant temperature fluctuations.
Knifegates provide a high-quality sealed valve, used at the outlets of vacuum receivers and vacuum systems, as common material line check valves, and on Weigh Hoppers. With a seal ensured to be vacuum-tight, knifegates are made of Aluminum with a Stainless Steel blade. Multiple sizes and high-temp options are available. Optional cylinder position switch gives visual indication that the knifegate has moved into the correct position for the process.
