Technogrid Applications

  • Vertical Shaft Overwind/ Underwind Protection
    • Technogrids are used to safely arrest an underground mine shaft conveyance in the head frame in the event of an accidental over run condition. This can also be achieved at shaft bottom.
  • Incline Shaft Protection
    • Overwind Protection
      • This application is in principal identical to Vertical Shaft Overwind/ Underwind Protection as described above.
    • Run-Away Conveyance
      • Technogrids are used to safely arrest coneyance or rolling stock where the hopper/ cradle detaches and runaway conditions can result
  • Granulation Tank LegStation Stoppers
    • Technogrids are used to arrest rolling stock before it can fall down veritcal shafts.
  • Conveyor Belt Counterweight Arresting
    • Technogrids are used to arrest the fall of a "gravity tension take up" on a counterweight in the event of the belt snapping.
  • Ship Loader Arresting
    • Technogrids are used to arrest Ship Loaders, under runaway conditions or as an additional safety measure in the event of limit failure
  • Granulation tanks - hydrogen explosions
    • Technogrids are installed in Granulation tank legs to absorb the enegry released by uncotrolled hydrogen explosions
  • Technogrids are used in new applications on an ongoing basis
