What is a redler and what is it used for?

What is a redler?

A redler, also known as a drag conveyor, is a key device in the industry, particularly in hot ash handling. This device is designed to efficiently and safely transfer large quantities of bulk materials, such as hot ash. There is no significant difference between a redler and a drag conveyor; they are synonyms describing the same transportation system. This makes them an excellent choice for industrial processes where material movement is critical for production smoothness.

What is a redler used for?

A redler is specifically designed for handling hot ash and other challenging materials in the industry. It is widely used in power plants, metal smelters, and chemical factories where hot ash is a common byproduct. In such environments, a redler can handle materials that require high temperature resistance and wear resistance. This makes the redler an essential component in processes where continuous and safe material transfer is necessary.

How does a redler work?

The operating principle of a redler is based on a closed or partially closed channel in which moving paddles or buckets transport the material. A motor rotates a chain or belt to which these paddles are attached, and they drag the material along the channel. This allows the material to be transferred to the desired location efficiently and continuously. Redlers are particularly useful when horizontal, vertical, or inclined conveyor transfer is needed, as they can adapt to various transportation requirements.

What are the advantages of a redler?

The advantages of using a redler include its efficiency, safety, and durability in hot ash handling. Redlers can transfer large amounts of material consistently, making them highly effective in production processes. Additionally, their closed structure reduces the spread of dust and splashes, improving the cleanliness and safety of the work environment. Redlers are also durable and require little maintenance, making them cost-effective in the long run. This reliability and durability make them an ideal solution for industrial needs.
