Engineering Solutions for Real Material Handling Problems
Identify the problem, uncover its root cause, and find the right UGES
solution to improve reliability, safety, and material flow across your plant.
Material Handling Problems We Solve Across Industries
Dip Tube Erosion and Blockage
Dip tube erosion and blockage is a persistent problem in cement, power, and steel plants, set in a kiln or furnace gas stream reaching 1400°C with 2000 g/m³ of dust. Dust wears the tube while deposits and condensed salts plug its bore, so gas sampling and reagent injection fail and emission control loses accuracy. UGES wear-resistant, purged dip tubes keep the bore clear.
Damper Warping, Leakage and Airflow Imbalance
Damper warping, leakage, and airflow imbalance undermine process control across cement, steel, and power ducting that can run beyond 1000°C. At that heat the blades and frame distort, abrasive dust erodes the sealing edges, and seals degrade, so the damper no longer shuts off tightly. The result is false air, wasted fan energy, and uneven flow. UGES reinforced, abrasion-resistant dampers hold tight shut-off.
Flow Control Gate Inaccurate Dosing and Feed Variation
Flow control gate inaccurate dosing and feed variation upsets blending at silo and hopper outlets in cement, power, steel, and food plants, where even a 2 to 3% feed swing throws a recipe off. Flooding fines, bridging, and a calibrated opening that drifts as the blade wears push the rate off and waste product. UGES flow control gates with precise actuation hold a steady feed.
Transfer Chute Blockage and Liner Wear
Transfer chute blockage and liner wear are twin failures across cement, mining, and power plants. When a chute plugs, the conveyor line behind it stops; when the liner wears through, material cuts into the chute itself. Sticky or poorly directed material builds up until flow halts, while abrasive streams wear liners fast. UGES flow-engineered chutes with AR400 and ceramic liners keep material moving.
Knife Gate and Butterfly Valve Seat Wear and Leakage
Knife gate and butterfly valve seat wear and leakage is a persistent problem across cement, steel, mining, and power plants handling abrasive bulk solids and slurry. Fine particles embed and erode the sealing faces, so a soft-seated valve can start leaking within 2 to 3 years and clean isolation becomes impossible. UGES hard-faced blades and replaceable seats hold a tight shut-off far longer.
Air Slide Conveyor Blockage and Fabric Blinding
Air slide blockage and fabric blinding is the most common failure in fluidized conveying, where powder flows on air down a gentle 6 to 10 degree slope in cement, power, and alumina plants. When moisture, fines, or debris blind the permeable fabric, fluidization collapses, material stalls, and blower power climbs as resistance rises. UGES graded fabrics and balanced aeration keep powder flowing.
Screw Conveyor Choking and Premature Wear
Screw conveyor choking and wear is a common reason feed lines in cement, chemical, and food plants lose capacity and stop unexpectedly. Loaded above 45% of the trough, run too fast, or fed damp material, the screw packs and stalls, while abrasive product wears the flights and seizes the hanger bearings. UGES engineered screws, hard-faced flights, and sealed hanger bearings keep material moving.
Diverter Valve Leakage and Cross-Contamination
Diverter valve leakage and cross-contamination is a costly, hidden problem in cement, chemical, and food plants, where worn blades, seals, and seats let material carry over to the wrong outlet or escape into the body. A single contaminated silo can cost Rs 5 to 20 lakh in reprocessing or rejected product. UGES sealed-blade, hard-faced, and air-purged diverter valves route material cleanly and hold a tight seal.
Slide Gate Jamming and Seizing
Slide gate jamming and seizing stalls material flow at silo, bin, and hopper outlets in cement, steel, and power plants. Handling abrasive powders and clinker, fine material below 100 microns packs into the blade guides while the blade and seat wear, until the actuator can no longer move or seal the gate. UGES self-cleaning, hard-faced slide gates keep the blade moving freely and sealing tightly.
