Industrial slide valve for heavy-duty applications

When managing gravity material flow in abrasive environments, achieving reliable closure without material cross-contamination is crucial. Ensure operational efficiency with a system designed to withstand harsh conditions and maintain clean material separation.

Controls Gravity Material Flow in Industrial Applications

The VG Slide Valves from WAMGROUP provide an exceptional solution for controlling gravity material flow in heavy-duty applications. These valves are constructed from robust carbon steel or stainless steel, designed to withstand the rigors of environments handling abrasive materials like sand, gravel, coal, and various grains. The VG Slide Valves are equipped with replaceable, abrasion-resistant seals and available in variable configurations to fit square or rectangular cross sections.

Their role is critical in applications that require precise material flow interception, ensuring minimal cross-contamination and spoilage, especially in complex production lines handling diverse materials such as ready-mix concrete, precast concrete, asphalt, and various food processing operations. Capable of integrating seamlessly with hoppers, silos, and conveyors, these valves cater to diverse industries, including wastewater treatment, ceramics, and animal feed processing.

The VG Slide Valves support a range of operation modes—continuous, manual, pneumatic, and electric—allowing flexibility for diverse operational needs. With sizes up to 1,000 x 1,000 mm, they handle significant volumes needed for industrial operations, providing ease of maintenance with quick access and limited components. The corrosion-resistant painted carbon steel frame enhances longevity, making the VG Slide Valves a reliable choice for enduring heavy industrial use.

Benefits

  • Ensures reliable material flow control, minimizing production interruptions.
  • Reduces maintenance with quick-access design and minimal components.
  • Prevents material cross-contamination and spoilage by eliminating ledges.
  • Adapts to various operational needs with interchangeable manual, pneumatic, or electric actuators.
  • Resists corrosion in harsh environments with a durable, painted carbon steel frame.
