Ajax Equipment has supplied a UKEX / ATEX-certified screw conveyor to James Durrans & Sons, a manufacturer of carbon-based materials within the Durrans Group. The new conveyor is designed to handle coal dust, efficiently transferring material from a dust collection hopper, while maintaining containment to support safe, continuous operation.

Developed in response to a tight project timeline, the screw conveyor meets stringent ATEX regulations for hazardous environments. Ajax collaborated closely with the customer to ensure the system met the specified feed rate and safety requirements.

Lewis Shaw, technical sales engineer at Ajax Equipment, noted the value of the joint approach: “Working together allowed us to quickly deliver a tailored solution that met performance and compliance needs.”
