Feeding technology - maximum throughput thanks to reliable material flow.

Our feeding systems optimize your processes by ensuring a continuous material flow and thus maximizing your output quality and rates. At the same time, our systems protect your extruder and other downstream equipment from wear and damage. With our feeding technology, we guarantee maximum process reliability and productivity.

    Lehmann-UMT's feeding technology includes special conveyor systems that are equipped with integrated impurity detection systems. Belt or screw conveyors are used as transfer technology solutions. The main task of these feeding systems is to ensure a uniform material flow and thus achieve maximum output rates.

    The feeding conveyor systems are equipped with an all-metal detector, based on an induction system, and a so-called stone sensor. These two equipment options serve to protect your extruder and other downstream systems by preventing wear caused by foreign substances such as metals and stones. As a result, the service life of the extruder is significantly extended. You also benefit from lower maintenance, personnel and wear costs and increase your process stability.

Properties

The feeding technology acts as a feed system for the extruder. Belt conveyors are used upstream of the extruder, while screw conveyors or similar systems are used downstream of the extruder. The system ensures a continuous material flow, thus increasing output rates and reducing downtime. The feeding technology consists of special conveyor systems that are equipped with additional options.

Depending on the material and the nature of the biomass used, our feeding systems are equipped with an all-metal detection system in the form of a detector. The system detects metallic objects contained in the transported material and removes them from the process. This protects your extruder, as the high temperatures (in the extrusion process) between the screws mean that any metal that gets in would immediately weld to the screw. The damaged screw modules must then be replaced. With insertion technology from Lehmann, you can prevent this and ensure safe, trouble-free processes and maximum machine availability.

Technical details:

  • Drive power (belt): 0.1-3 kW
  • Length (belt): variable depending on process requirements and local conditions
  • Width (belt): variable depending on process requirements and local conditions

Technology

  • Stone separator

    An additional option with which the system is equipped is the so-called stone separator. This detects stones in the transported material and removes them from the process by tilting the conveyor belt. Although stones up to a certain size are crushed in the extruder, they still cause considerable wear on the screw segments.

    The insertion technology minimizes your service and wear costs by creating long maintenance cycles. It protects your extruder and other downstream systems from damage, reduces disposal costs and minimizes manual intervention on the system.

  • Integrated plug-and-play system

    Thanks to the integrated plug-and-play system, Lehmann-UMT feeding technology can be easily integrated into your existing machine concept. The intelligent control system enables fully automatic operation and reduces the need for manual intervention. In addition, the system is Industry 4.0-capable and you are future-proof.

    The control system's large service display enables intuitive operation and uncomplicated handling. All maintenance work can be carried out by trained service personnel, giving you maximum autonomy and flexibility.

  • High-quality materials

    The system is made from high-quality materials and has an extremely robust design, which keeps wear to a minimum. The system is also extremely easy to maintain and service, as the wearing parts are easily accessible and can be replaced quickly and easily by trained personnel. Our sustainable insertion technology makes a positive contribution to resource conservation and reduces waste.

    The long service life and maintenance intervals help to reduce costs, increase profitability and investment security by shortening the amortization period of the system.
