New Gear EDEM VIBRATING CONVEYORS RZ INDUSTRIES RELEASES ITS NEW FILTRATION MASK NEW LINE OF BABAC TRACTION PRODUCTS The heart of every EDEM medium, heavy and ex-tra heavy-duty vibrating conveyor is a rugged coil spring/eccentric shaft drive assembly. While simple in design, the coil springs are noted for their out-standing performance, and the unique EDEM design is built to have one of the lowest horsepower re-quirements of any drive on the market today. The units are powered by a high-efficiency, TEFC electric motor and standard V-belt drive. Each conveyor is custom designed and engineered to suit a custom-er’s requirements. All vibrating conveyors are avail-able in both unbalanced and dynamically balanced configurations. Applications include pellet and wood biomass fibre handling; chipper infeed/chip con-veyors; screening; hog infeed and metal detection. www.edem.com www.optimil.com RZ Industries recently introduced its newly de-signed M2-Mesh Air Filtration Mask with HEPA Filtration System. This mask features an abra-sion-resistant mesh exterior designed for easier airflow; elastic side straps for a more precise fit to multiple different head shapes and siz-es; dual direction exhalation valves that expel breath away from glasses and goggles; and comes with a HEPA filter designed to allow for 124 per cent more breathability than a stan-dard paper mask. The mask also accepts the RZ Industries’ current active carbon filter and is more lightweight than the company’s neoprene mask. rzmask.com Wallingford’s has introduced new products in 2015 within their line of BABAC Traction Prod-ucts.
