Company Presentation:

MECO custom shaft seals are a long-lived, low-maintenance alternative to packing glands on slow-turning bulk processing equipment. Seal design & materials are carefully chosen to suit the size, temperature, pressure, speed, and chemistry of each application. Fully-split seals are available for installation without removing bearing or drive. MECO seals protect shafts from abrasion damage in powder processes in many industries and are designed to accommodate 6mm of diametric shaft runout and thermal shaft growth in high-temperature process machinery. MECO seals offer complete containment of VOC`s as well as solids and can reduce dryer cycle time by 50% by effectively sealing the vacuum. MECO, the original high-runout seal for dry powder process equipment, offers CEMA standard and custom-engineered seals to retrofit existing machinery. FDA materials available.

MECO shaft seals are manufactured by Woodex Bearing Company. Woodex also manufactures CEMA standard and custom wood bearings and split wood hanger bearings and roll end bearings.

MECO builds:

screw conveyor seals
mixer seals
blender seals
dryer seals
extruder seals
rotary valve seals
vacuum mixer seals

Powder & Bulk Solids Chicago 2008

MECO CUSTOM SHAFT SEALS TO BE EXHIBITED AT CHICAGO POWDER SHOW


MECO custom-engineered shaft seals for rotating dry bulk process equipment will be exhibited in booth number 2531 at the International Powder and Bulk Solids Expo on May 6-8, 2008.

Processors seeking effective alternatives to packed gland type seals will find that new developments in MECO's sealing technology have allowed the company to offer seals for clean-in-place ( CIP ) systems, essential for many of today's food and pharmaceutical applications. Through improved rotor technology, MECO engineers have also succeeded in pushing the shaft speed envelope to 1000 surface feet per minute on inclined, dry-running shafts.

MECO seals are used in the food, chemical, pharmaceutical, plastics and minerals processing industries. MECO offers its custom shaft seals for slower-turning bulk processing equipment, including mixers, blenders, reactors, conveyors, dryers, bucket elevators, grinders, crushers and agitators. A wide range of shaft diameters can be retrofitted.

Recognizing that no standard seals will work properly in every application, MECO engineers specify the optimal, patented seal design and construction materials for each seal according to precise shaft diameter, speed, clearance, process chemistry, temperature, pressure, etc. Seal materials are chosen from a variety of specialty and hardened alloys, bearing-grade plastics and specialty elastomers. FDA materials are available. Factors such as thermal growth of the shaft and process pressure variations are calculated into the designs. Seals use different gas barrier fluids, at very low flow rates (under 14 litres per minute). Custom engineering and attention to detail make MECO seals more successful than conventional types of seals or packings.

Originally developed for screw conveyors, MECO seals solve problems caused by shaft run-out or misalignment by accommodating 6 mm diametric run-out or more. MECO seals are most often used to retrofit equipment where a packing gland has failed repeatedly due to shaft run-out. MECO seals are available fully-split so that installation and rebuilding are quick and easy. In sanitary applications, seals can be removed for daily cleaning where required. MECO seals are ideal for applications requiring vacuum containment, often increasing machine efficiency dramatically.
