Redefining the Standards for Bulk Handling, by The Hendrik Group, a Feature of "Industry Today" on Industrialinfo.com

Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas) will host special guest The Hendrik Group Incorporated (Woodbury, Connecticut) as part of this week's "Industry Today" webcast. The Hendrik Group engineers and fabricates air-supported belt conveyors (ASBC) and offers a total solution for bulk material handling systems ranging from facility evaluation, feasibility studies, process design and engineering, as well as the supply and procurement of complete bulk material handling systems. The Hendrik Group uses decades of experience and proven ASBC technology to solve unique and complicated problems resulting in custom-designed solutions.

The company's goal is to provide material-handling equipment of the highest quality while applying the most innovative and latest technology to every project application. The Hendrik Group's HoverGlide™ family of custom conveyor systems is revolutionizing the bulk materials handling industry. HoverGlide™ ASBCs use meticulously calibrated air chambers to support conveyor belts carrying bulk materials with fewer friction-oriented components than vintage roller conveyors while also providing a weatherproof and dust-tight solution.

These conveyors utilize a thin cushion of air (film) rather than idlers to support the belt and load. Use of this air film reduces friction between the tail section and discharge, reducing dust emissions and, ultimately, maintenance. This reduction in friction, dust emissions and maintenance can be translated into immediate costs savings in housekeeping, parts replacement and energy costs.

Through detailed calculations, meticulous fabrication and thorough end-to-end management, The Hendrik Group has brought an evolutionary design to the power, mining, chemical, pharmaceutical, feed and grain and other industries. Join Rik Hartsuiker, Manager of Operations for The Hendrik Group, to learn more about the company's commitment to quality and the results that its expert team can bring to your next project.
