In the recycling industry, gears, conveyor belts, drag chains, and screw conveyors form the core systems for material handling and mechanical operation. Their respective functions and applications are as follows:

Gears: Precision drive and power transmission

• Used to drive equipment such as crushers and sorters, ensuring stable mechanical operation.
• Providing high torque output, they are suitable for handling heavy or high-resistance recycled materials (such as metal and plastic blocks).
• In automated machinery, gear systems enable precise speed and direction control.

Conveyor belts: The workhorse of material handling

• Responsible for transporting recycled materials from one processing stage to the next, such as from the sorting area to the compressor.
• They can be made of different materials (such as rubber, PVC, and Teflon mesh belts) depending on the type of material.
• In large-scale recycling plants, conveyor belt systems can significantly improve processing efficiency and automation.

Drag chains: A wear-resistant handling solution

• Suitable for handling heavy or sharp materials such as scrap metal and glass fragments.
• Drag chain systems are typically designed as enclosed or semi-enclosed systems to prevent material leakage.
• Highly resistant to wear and impact, suitable for use in harsh environments.

Screw Conveyors: Optimal for Vertical or Inclined Conveying

• Using spiral blades to propel materials, they are suitable for conveying powders, granules, or crushed materials.
• They can be used for vertical or inclined conveying, saving space and improving conveying efficiency.
• Dual-track screw conveyors can even increase conveying capacity and support customized designs.

These mechanical components are more than just handling tools; they are essential drivers of efficiency in the recycling process. They transform recycling operations from "manual stacking" to "smart flow," increasing productivity while reducing human risk.
