The Vortex® Hand Slide Orifice Gate™ is designed to specifically to handle dry bulk solids in gravity flow conveying. Traditional knife gates or butterfly valves are designed to handle gases and liquids, not dry materials. These valves rely on soft rubber seals, which erode or tear away during use, allowing leakage of air and material through the valve or into the atmosphere. This causes the need for frequent valve maintenance, production inefficiencies, and unsanitary environments. The Hand Slide Orifice Gate™ is designed to eliminate these problems, enabling you to meet your objectives by increasing production, while decreasing labour and equipment costs.
