ANCO originated the Continuous Hydrolyzer technology
and became the first company to patent this type of
process. The Continuous Hydrolyzer dates back to the
first installation in the mid 60’s for Southern Rendering
in Little Rock, Arkansas. Today ANCO feather and hog
hair Hydrolyzers are found in process plants through out
the world. Part of the success for the Hydrolyzer can be
found in the dewatering feed system. The experience and
“know how” learned by ANCO engineers now has been
incorporated in a new product line, the ANCO 1270
Dewatering Press.
Proven Technology — ANCO’s new Dewatering Press is
based on our solid design experience of 40 years as a
leader in continuous Hydrolyzing equipment.
Consideration for construction material, heavy-duty screw
feeder design and the latest CAD optimization make the
ANCO 1270 a reliable and high performance Press.
Key Components — There are four components that will
impact the overall Dewatering Press performance: Screw
Design, Pressure Choke, Drive and Support Frame.
• Screw Design is critical to achieving the maximum
water removal with the least HP. ANCO engineers have
taken thousands of hours studying feed conveying to
optimize the screw profile and wear material selections.
• To maintain the correct pressure ANCO built the
Pressure choke from a solid forging for strength and wear.
Some competitive units use a low-grade thin plate that is
prone to failure within a very few hours of operation. A
single compression nut provides the adjustment spacing
of the choke that an operator can fine-tune without the
aid of any special tools.
• Drives for any rendering equipment must be ruggedly
built. ANCO’s 100 years experience has demonstrated
that our POW-R-PAK™ drives are built to last and parts
are always quickly available from ANCO. Like all ANCO
drives we first look at the demand HP, then utilize a drive
that has ample service factors. For the ANCO 1270, a V-
belt arrangement is incorporated to soften the start-up
loads and provide a means to fine tune the main screw
RPM. An optional VFD drive can be incorporated to
provide even more flexibility for the customer.
• With the high screw pressure and torque, a rigid
support frame is critical. ANCO utilizes the latest CAD
technology to develop a strong but simple frame
structure. The main press frame is a single piece of steel
weldment, line bored and CNC machined for precision
tolerances with special wear-resistant alloys used
throughout. The frame’s main structure is fabricated from
ground plate with a stainless steel drain trough.
