Roller

The most frequently used bit types are the roller cone or rock bit (F g. 3.8) and the polycrystalline diamond cutter or PDC bit.

Cmmbles are formed by grinding pellets to the desired sizes. Specialty feeds such as flakes can be made by mnning newly manufactured pellets through a press or through use of a double dmm dryer. The latter type of flakes begin as a slurry of feed ingredients and water. When the slurry is pressed between the hot rollers of the double dmm dryer, wafer thin sheets of dry feed are produced that are then broken into small pieces. The different colors observed in some tropical fish foods represent a mixture of flakes, each of which contains one or more different additives that impart color. 

Belt-conveyor scales determine the amount of material being conveyed on a belt. A section of belt is weighed by placing the belt support rollers on a scale the belt speed is also measured. Weight and speed data are suppHed to a controller which integrates them to arrive at a material flow rate, often stated in tons per hour. The controller may display a flow rate, shut the conveyor down when a predeterrnined amount of material has passed, or it may be used to maintain a specified flow rate. Accuracy is limited because of the number of detrimental influences involved, eg, variable belt tension. 

The first-break roUs of a mill are cormgated rather than smooth like the reduction roUs that reduce the particles of endosperm further along in the process. The rollers are paired and rotate inward against each other and at different speeds. The clearance between rollers and the pressure as well as the speed of each separate roUer, can be adjusted. At each breaking step, the miller selects the milling surface and the cormgations the speed of and interrelation between the rollers depend on the type and condition of the wheat. 

The film tube is collapsed within a V-shaped frame of rollers and is nipped at the end of the frame to trap the air within the bubble. The nip roUs also draw the film away from the die. The draw rate is controlled to balance the physical properties with the transverse properties achieved by the blow draw ratio. The tube may be wound as such or may be sHt and wound as a single-film layer onto one or more roUs. The tube may also be direcdy processed into bags. The blown film method is used principally to produce polyethylene film. It has occasionally been used for polypropylene, poly(ethylene terephthalate), vinyls, nylon, and other polymers. 

The patented system (15) has stationary disks mounted inside a pressure vessel (horizontal vessel, vertical disks) which is mounted on rollers and can rotate slowly about its axis. A screw conveyor is mounted in the stationary center of rotation it conveys the cake, which is blown off the leaves when they pass above the screw, to one end of the vessel where it falls into a vertical chute. The cake discharge system involves two linear sHde valves that sHde the cake through compartments which gradually depressurize it and move it out of the vessel without any significant loss of pressure. The system rehes entirely on the cake falling freely from one compartment to another as the valves move across. This may be an unrealistic assumption, particularly with sticky cakes when combined with lots of sliding contact surfaces which are prone to abrasion and jamming, the practicality of the system is questionable. 

Extmsion of polyethylene and some polypropylenes is usually through a circular die into a tubular form, which is cut and collapsed into flat film. Extmsion through a linear slot onto chilled rollers is called casting and is often used for polypropylene, polyester, and other resins. Cast, as well as some blown, films may be further heated and stretched in the machine or in transverse directions to orient the polymer within the film and improve physical properties such as tensile strength, stiffness, and low temperature resistance. 

A belt press commonly uses two belts of woven material. Fmit mash is deposited on, and spread out evenly between, the two belts which converge and press the mash between them. The belts wrap around a series of successively smaller cylinders or pass between rollers (less efficient) for the pressing action. Juice yield for the wraparound belt press is 72%, and increases to 92% with secondary water addition (15). 

Antioxidants. Widely used antioxidants are eugenol, ionol, and the like. They retard premature oxidation of inks on the press rollers when used at low concentrations.

Splitting. In most modem large tanneries that make upholstery leather, and in some that make shoe uppers leather, the hides are spHt in the lime condition. In splitting the hides are cut to the desired thickness with a horizontal belt knife. The hides are fed into the machine grain up. The clearance between the grain and the blade is maintained by a series of narrow rollers supported by a mbber roUer underneath the spacing roUers. The grain layer is then cut to the thickness desired to an accuracy of about 0.1 mm. 

The Calcimatic is a patented kiln of Canadian origin that is radically different from other kiln types. It consists of a circular traveling hearth of variable speed, supported on two concentric tiers of rollers. Kiln feed of 12.7 mm is fed onto the hearth in a 2.5—10 cm bed from a preheater chamber. The kiln is usually fired with natural gas or fuel oil, although the option of using pulverized coal has also been developed. After great interest, resulting in sales of many units throughout the world, the popularity of the Calcimatic has ebbed because of disappointment in the unit s mediocre thermal efficiency. 

Tetrahydronaphthalene [119-64-2] (Tetralin) is a water-white Hquid that is insoluble in water, slightly soluble in methyl alcohol, and completely soluble in other monohydric alcohols, ethyl ether, and most other organic solvents. It is a powerhil solvent for oils, resins, waxes, mbber, asphalt, and aromatic hydrocarbons, eg, naphthalene and anthracene. Its high flash point and low vapor pressure make it usehil in the manufacture of paints, lacquers, and varnishes for cleaning printing ink from rollers and type in the manufacture of shoe creams and floor waxes as a solvent in the textile industry and for the removal of naphthalene deposits in gas-distribution systems (25). The commercial product typically has a tetrahydronaphthalene content of >97 wt%, with some decahydronaphthalene and naphthalene as the principal impurities.
