Containers have sure come a long way, since I first saw Cabot Corp back in the 1950's shipping pelletized carbon black to our tire plants in TX and LA (UniRoyal Tire Co.) in large, round rubber bags placed on rail cars. Not much versatility to those bags, and if there was a "clog", you had to push a rod into the bag and hope it would unclog it!
The Translock2 is sure a tremendous advance from those old bags.
By the way, today, they use specially-designed entire rail cars for bulk shipping of carbon black to tire and rubber plants. Not sure if Translock2 would be better or not for this? It could be something for DDCC to check into?
