One of the products Elesa offers is the GN 949 stainless steel spoked handwheels. These handwheels are designed for the manual adjustment of valves, gates, rollers, and screw-adjusted equipment.
According to Elesa, the corrosion-resistant construction of these handwheels ensures longevity, making them ideal for use in challenging waste management environments. Their design enhances user comfort and efficiency, while their reliable performance ensures that critical adjustments can be made with precision and ease.
Another component that Elesa provides to the waste management industry is the RE.E2 range of castors and wheels. These castors and wheels are used on stillages for loading or transferring materials, as well as for enabling the mobility of structures such as swinging conveyor gantries. They can also be fitted onto machinery carts and barrows, providing a solution for enhancing mobility in environments where material handling needs are constantly evolving. The RE.E2 range is designed to withstand the wear and tear associated with heavy-duty industrial applications.
In addition to enhancing mobility, Elesa also offers solutions for mitigating the vibrations commonly encountered in waste management facilities. The DVA vibration dampers and buffers are designed to reduce vibrations in pumps, valves, gearboxes, sieves, joggers, and shakers. They can be used for mounting equipment to frames or as feet on stand-alone items. Additionally, these vibration dampers serve a role in motion control, acting as bump stops to cushion stroke limits and prevent mechanical shock and damage. By minimising vibration and mechanical stress, the DVA range is expected to help prolong the life of critical equipment, reducing maintenance costs and minimising downtime.
The benefits of Elesa's components extend beyond their immediate functional applications. By improving equipment reliability and longevity, they contribute to the sustainability goals of the waste management and processing industries. The general design of these components ensures that machinery can operate longer and more effectively, with reduced maintenance needs and lower risk. In industries where equipment failure can lead to disruptions and an increase in waste output, having reliable components is crucial.
Elesa’s research and development teams work to identify and address emerging needs. For instance, the GN 949 handwheels and RE.E2 castors are constantly updated to incorporate the latest materials and design improvements.
Elesa's catalogue includes a range of other components such as clamping levers, knobs, handwheels, levelling feet, and latch clamps. Each of these components is designed not only for functionality but also for durability, ensuring they meet the high-demand context of waste management operations. This approach means that clients can source all their component needs from one reliable supplier, simplifying procurement processes and reducing lead times.
Additionally, Elesa ensures that its components are made from high-grade engineering plastics and stainless steels that meet international standards for quality and performance. By using materials that are both durable and easy to clean, Elesa's components help manufacturers maintain high cleanliness standards, which are vital to avoid contamination and ensure compliance with health and safety regulations.
