Institute of corrosion launch new Web site

In-line with its recent relaunch, the Institute of corrosion has gone live with a new Web site that demonstrates the dynamic nature of the professional services that they are offering. The new site at www.icorr.org has been altered to reflect a number of dramatic and significant changes that have taken place within ICorr over recent months, with the launch of a “New Look”.

Visitors to the site will be pleased to see that the site is very easy to view and very simple to navigate. There are no complex channels before you get to the information that you require and the information is split into broad categories including organisation history, membership details, conferences and events, education and training and branch details.

At the heart of the Web site is the education and training section, which goes into great depth about the range and broad spectrum of courses available from the Institute. The next development stage in this section will be the facility to book online. In addition, the new Web site is designed to act as an online brochure, allowing members the option to simply find out more about a product or service.

Commenting upon the new Web site, David Deacon, President of the Institute of Corrosion said: “The new Web site presented us with the opportunity to demonstrate many of the positive changes that have happened here at the Institute of Corrosion over recent months. It displays the range of services that we offer from training, seminars and details for members. The site is an easily accessible method by which people can be kept up to date of everything that is happening and they can take advantage of booking online.”

Anyone interested in finding out more about the Institute of Corrosion should try visiting the new Web site on www.icorr.org or by calling 01525 851771.

Major conveying and feeding contract for minerals company

ROTEX EUROPE has secured a major contract to supply nine SFH feeders to a large UK sand producer as part of an extension to its plant (Plate 1).

The feeders will be used to process sea and river sand, as well as limestone and gravel at a capacity of 150ton/h each by increasing the plant capacity considerably.

Allan Thompson, Regional Sales Manager for ROTEX EUROPE, said: “This is one of our largest contracts for feeders although our SFH feeders are extremely used widely throughout the minerals industry. The robust design of these feeders makes them ideal for continuous heavy duty applications up to 1,100ton/h and excellent performance is guaranteed, even when operating very heavy loads.”

SFH electromagnetic vibrating feeders are extremely efficient as they enable the accurate control of bulk materials from storage hoppers. In addition to minerals, they are also widely used for handling chemicals, metallic products, recycled glass and fertilizer.

In addition to the SFH electromagnetic vibrating feeders, ROTEX EUROPE offers a complete range of direct drive machines including feeders and conveyors for handling a wide range of bulk products. All Rotex machines are available with various options as to meet the end user's most specific requirements.
