AHMQ 70 x 70
Inlet orifice dimension
Machine code
The pneumatic slide gate is a material cutting device and is applicable for pro-
cessing industries including rice, food, feed, oil and chemical industries;
For mechanical conveying of bulk material, it is used to discharge and cut ma-
terial automatically, so it is an essential equipment for automatic control during
production process;
This equipment has advantages of simple in structure, beautiful in style, con-
venient in operating and flexible in action and safety and reliable in perfor-
mance.
AHMQ slide gate opens and closes the slide gate by the cylinder which drives
the slide gate plate to carry out reciprocating linear motion.

Chapter 3 AHMQ Pneumatic Slide Gate 11
Being supported by riding wheels, the slide gate plate adopts a tapered open-
ing for charging rather than a sliding chute for guiding, in this way, the slide
gate plate will not be locked by materials or leak materials, and in starting the
slide gate plate will not bring materials outwardly and can move flexibly with a
small resistance, see Fig. 3.3.
This device is mainly consisted of parts including a solenoid selector valve, a mag-
netic switch, a frame, a gasket, a slide gate plate, a idler wheel, a cone funnel, a
blanking plate, a cylinder fixing plate and a cylinder(see Fig. 3.4).

3.3 Installation
When installing the equipment, take sealing measures to the pipeline connec-
tion without any material leakage and the slide gate is required to be in-stalled
horizontally;
No gas leakage is allowed to happen along the gas circuit;
See Fig. 3.1 for the mounting dimension.

3.4 Commissioning
Carry out a no-load test to the feeding slide gate firstly. The slide gate should
move flexibly without any creeping or tremoring;
Adjust the one-way throttle valve or the silencing and exhausting valve to make
the back and forth speed of the slide gate become about 0.1m/s;
Adjust the position of the magnetic switch to make the magnetic switch close
with the slide gate opened and closed to the designated position. Adjust the
position of the magnetic switch so that the slide gate can be closed in place
and can stop at the set position when it is opened.

4.2 Description
AHMD 32 x 32
Inlet orifice dimension
Machine code
AHMD Electric slide gate is designed to make the slide gate plate
(spile)reciprocate through the motor which drives the screw to carry out for-
ward and reverse rotation after gear reducing.
The rotation state of the motor is controlled by a position switch.
Being supported by rollers, the slide gate plate adopts a tapered opening for
charging rather than a sliding chute for guiding, in this way, the slide gate plate
will not be locked by materials or leak materials, and in starting, the slide gate
plate will not bring materials outwardly and can move flexibly with a small re-
sistance.
AHMD Electric slide gates are mainly consisted of parts including long frames,
slide gate plates, gears, idler wheels, feeding cone funnels, motors and mounted
bearings (see Fig. 4.2).

4.3 Installation
In installing, connect the upper and lower flanges at the Electric slide gate ori-
fice to the external pipelines, seal them to prevent ash leakage. And then con-
nect the motor power line and the control line of the position switch.
See Fig. 4.1 for the mounting dimension.
4.4 Commissioning
During the no-load test carried out after installing, the slide gate should run
flexibly and smoothly;
Adjust the position switch to make the slide gate start and stop normally.

Machine code
AHMM manual slide gate is designed to make the slide gate plate
(spile)reciprocate through a hand wheel which drives the screw to carry out
forward and re-verse rotation with the stroke tache indicating the open/close
state of the slide gate(or obtain the information by hand feeling).
Being supported by rollers, the slide gate plate adopts a tapered opening for
charging rather than a sliding chute for guiding.In this way, the slide gate plate
will not be locked by materials or leak materials, and in starting, the slide gate
plate will not bring materials outwardly and can move flexibly with a small re-
sistance
AHMM manual slide gates are mainly consisted of parts including long frames,
