Guillotine Gate Key Specifications

Actuation

Hydraulic cylinder actuation for large gates handling heavy iron ore and DRI loads; pneumatic for mid-range sizes; motorized for automated plant integration.

Sealing Type

Heavy-duty compression seals for coarse iron ore and pellets; low-leakage seals with replaceable packing for fine DRI and sinter fines containment.

Seating Configuration

Hard seated (metal-to-metal) standard for all steel plant applications due to abrasive material characteristics; renewable seat rings for field maintenance.

Port Shape

Rectangular ports for large chute and bin openings; square ports for hopper connections; custom geometry for integration with existing steel plant infrastructure.

Body Material

Heavy-gauge mild steel frame with Hardox 450/500 blade and liner plates; manganese steel option for extreme impact resistance in ore handling applications.

Size Range

Available from 300 mm to 2000 mm for iron ore stockpile reclaim, DRI storage silo discharge, and large-capacity material transfer in steel plants.

Industrial Applications

Iron Ore Stockpile Reclaim
Installed at ore stockpile reclaim hoppers to control feed of iron ore lumps and fines onto belt conveyors for blast furnace or sinter plant transport.
DRI Storage Silo Discharge
Mounted at DRI silo bottom outlets for bulk extraction to electric arc furnace or briquetting plant, handling high static loads from stored DRI material.
Slag Pit Discharge Gate
Positioned at slag cooling pit discharge points to control processed slag flow to crushing and screening stations for aggregate recovery or disposal.
