Pendulum Unit and Forming Conveyor
Pendulum Unit
The pendulum unit receives the thin layer of the primary wool carpet and lays it down on the forming conveyor which creates the required height of the mineral wool before entering the crimping zone. It consists of two vertical conveyors; the stone wool layer is transferred between the conveyors to the forming conveyor. Both conveyor belts hang on a joint pendulum frame.
Forming conveyor
The thin primary layer arriving from the pendulum unit is laid down on the forming conveyor. The thickness of the created wool carpet is determined by the speed of the stone wool production line. The height of the forming conveyor consisting of three parts can be adjusted in order to provide products of different thickness. The conveyors are driven by engines with a speed-changing device. There are weighing devices installed under the first conveyor that measure the specific weight of one square meter of the stone wool block for the correction of the speed of the production line.
