Application Areas of Rotary Joints

Aug 05, 2024

The application fields of rotary joints almost cover various processing and manufacturing industries, such as metallurgy, machine tools, power generation, petroleum, rubber, plastics, textiles, printing and dyeing, pharmaceuticals, cigarettes, papermaking, food, feed processing, etc.
1. Paper making: Various paper processing equipment, such as drying cylinders, steamers, coating machines, calenders, etc. of paper machines.
2. Fiber products: textile, synthetic fiber and printing and dyeing, linen textile industry, such as bed sheet bleaching machines, silk machines, flat washing machines, vacuum dryers, precision pressing equipment, towel ironing machines, adjusters, textile printing and dyeing drying equipment. Processing equipment related to various chemical fiber products.
3. Rubber and plastics: calendering machines, screw extruders, mixing mixers, kneading machines, rotary and laminating machines, drum type automatic vulcanizing machines and flat vulcanizing machines for rubber, injection molding machines, mixing machines, foaming machines, thin film manufacturing machines, open mills, drying machines, paint cloth machines, paint paper machines, etc.
4. Leather: Processing and manufacturing equipment for artificial leather and synthetic leather, including coating machines, raw fabric machines, fine washing machines, hot roller presses, roller drying equipment, etc.
5. Printing: rotary offset and gravure printing machines, layered drying equipment, mixers, etc.
6. Chemical and pharmaceutical industries: cylindrical, conical and drum shaped dryers, rolling test equipment, ball mills, laminating machines, electrode lifting and pressing devices for calcium carbide furnaces, industrial naphthalene drum crystallizers for coal tar fractionation.
7. Food: Grain, food drying equipment, kneading machine, release device, rolling and crushing equipment, rotary drying equipment.
8. Steelmaking, metal and alloy products: continuous casting machines, hot steel plate straightening machines, wire drawing, rolling mills, high-precision rolling equipment, extruders, rolling machines, rolling equipment for wires and pipes, loading and unloading machinery, wet mills for manufacturing hard alloys.
9. Electrical appliances: Double water internal cooling generator rotor cooling, wire and cable processing equipment.
10. Cigarettes: silk dryer, tendon dryer.
11. Building materials: Processing equipment, testing equipment, printing machines, embossing machines, groove bottom printing machines for plastic wallpaper, and hot pressing machines for wood processing. A board machine for asbestos products. Processing equipment for cork products.
12. Mechanical manufacturing: hydraulic presses, hydraulic presses, pneumatic and hydraulic related equipment, cooling screw presses, clamping and gripping devices for punching and forging equipment, reducing equipment, coiling equipment for flexible hoses, rotary table mechanisms, grinding equipment, machine tools, vacuum equipment, boring machines, lubrication and cooling devices for combination machine beds.
13. Glass industry: drum type feeding machine.
14. Geology: Drilling rigs used for oil or other mineral drilling.
15. For thin necked hoses: When bending pipes, especially metal hoses, due to the large bending radius, a considerable length of the stroke is required. Assembling a rotary joint at the root can be done with the shortest hose length, which not only does not take up space, but can also be used for absorbing twisting of the hose according to the usage method.
16. Oil pressure and water distribution pipes: They can be used as a complete set of rotary joints or in conjunction with complex movements. It can be safely used in areas where it is difficult to install hoses or where there is a risk of significant leakage, as well as in harsh environmental conditions such as high temperature and high pressure. For example, when the fuel injector of a boiler catches fire, the rotary joint and assembly used for inserting oil and steam piping can be used without any problems even under harsh conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, and complex operations.
In short, rotary joints can be used for cylindrical, drum shaped, frustum shaped, spherical rotating equipment and equipment that uses steam, water, oil, gas, air, salt water, ammonia and other gases and liquids for heating, drying and cooling, as well as for reciprocating or swinging (rotating) equipment at any angle, and for pneumatic and hydraulic related equipment used for clamping, braking and gripping.
