An efficient conveyor system keeps production processes running quickly and regularly. Incorrect maintenance, unsuitable equipment selection and wear in the system can greatly reduce efficiency. In this article, we look at the methods you can apply to improve conveyor performance.
Correct product selection
Selecting components that suit the needs of the system is the basis of performance. Belt scrapers, carrying idlers and skirt sealing systems prevent losses and blockages during conveying, making the system more efficient.
The RacloFlex belt scraper series keeps the belt clean. This reduces downtime and lowers wear.
Regular maintenance and inspections
The right equipment is not enough on its own. Without regular maintenance, no system runs trouble-free in the long term. When carrying idlers, belt scrapers and belts are inspected regularly, potential problems are identified in advance and failures are prevented.
Systems that do not touch the belt, such as AirScrape, lower maintenance costs by preventing wear on components.
Systems that reduce friction
Energy consumption is one of the main cost items of conveyor systems. Components that rub against the belt increase the force needed to move it; systems that do not touch the belt create no such friction.
Because the AirScrape skirt sealing system works without contact with the belt, it creates no friction at the belt edge.
