These systems serve the same fundamental purpose, moving materials from one point to another, but they do so in radically different ways. Mechanical conveyors use physical components such as belts, buckets, chains, or screws to move material, while pneumatic conveying relies on air or another gas to carry materials through a pipeline using either positive or negative pressure. Striking the right balance between these systems requires an understanding of their respective strengths, limitations, applications, and operational costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notice of EGM and General Meeting\u00a0<strong>Wednesday 9th July 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>INVITATION NOTICE: Our Summer meeting is now an EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u00a0Wednesday 9th July 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Moat House Hotel, Lower Penkridge Rd, Acton Trussell, Stafford ST17 0RJ<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Start: 10.00am (arrival from 9.30am)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FREE on-site parking and buffet lunch provided<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Need a room?

It was decided by vote to hold an EGM to discuss this further and vote on the matter formally (as to make this change would mean changing the constitution and can only be decided at an AGM or EGM providing enough notice has been given to members).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We will add this to the meeting agenda and instead of a vote in the room by show of hands it has been agreed to hold an electronic vote. A link to do this will be provided at the meeting and also sent out via email to all members to be able to participate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There will also be the usual updates from the General Secretary and Chairman as well as a guest presentation and introductions from some of our recent new members.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
