Scrubbers

The TITAN GDS is fixed on a rigid, heavy-duty steel base frame with safety guards around rotating equipment.

The shell is supported by two 90-degree hydrostatic bearings with an oil lubrication station controlling and filtering the oil between the drive housing bearing and the station. All temperatures and pressure are measured and used to control the operation of the scrubber.

The optional design includes idler supported roller carriage, which replaces the idler-bearing housing in supporting the scrubber at the feed end. The polyurethane-designed rollers only support vertical loaded and thus have limited wear due to the fact they don’t handle the torsion loads of regular tyre-driven scrubbers.

Mechprotech’s advanced thermos-polymer hydrostatic bearing and drive arrangement, designed exclusively by our team, empowers us to manufacture machines in record time. Before dispatching to the site, our mechanical shop rigorously tests each device. When transport conditions allow, we can deliver the machine fully assembled to the site. Consequently, this significantly reduces site erection times and expedites the commissioning process, leading to faster plant production. The ingenious design necessitates a simple civil foundation since minimal mechanical forces need to be transferred from the drive train to the scrubber girth gear. With all loads being vertical, they can be adequately supported by a thickened civil foundation. As a result, there is a direct cost-saving in terms of the scrubber’s capital expenditure.

The design also allows us to skid mount our units and install them on a self-driven hydraulic track system.
