Dust

Dust from the belt edge at transfer points soils the work area and causes material loss. Contactless skirt sealing keeps fine material on the belt.

Material spillage

Material spilling at the loading point builds up around the line. Sealing, belt support and tracking are considered together.

Sticking and carryback

Material stuck to the belt passes the head pulley, travels onto the return strand and gets into the pulleys. Primary and secondary scrapers remove it.

Belt mistracking

A mistracking belt runs off to one side and its edges are damaged. A tracking idler acts as the belt starts to move off centre and guides it back.

Impact damage

Falling material strains the belt at the loading point and makes it sag. An impact bed absorbs the impact; damage is repaired with repair compound.

What if I do not know what causes the problem?

You can request a site survey. Our team inspects the conveyor systems at your plant on site, assesses their condition and identifies the areas that need work and possible problems.

Which problems occur at the loading point?

Dust, spillage and impact damage occur where material lands on the belt. Related products: AirScrape, TailScrape and SureSupport impact bed.

Which problems occur at the carrying strand and belt?

The belt wears, tears or gets punctured over time; choosing the right belt and repairing it in time shortens downtime. Related products: Multi-ply textile conveyor belt, EP conveyor belt, Permaflex repair compound and Fix'n Go® repair patch.

Which problems occur at the splice point?

Making a splice quickly and correctly shortens unplanned downtime. Related products: Super-Screw® mechanical splice and Fein Kit Super-Screw® installation kit.

Which problems occur at the head pulley?

If it is not cleaned off, material stuck to the belt is carried onto the return strand, gets into the pulleys and wears the pulley surface. Related products: Primary belt scraper and Secondary belt scraper.

Which problems occur at the return strand?

Mistracking (the belt running off to one side) damages the belt edges; material that falls onto the inner face of the return belt can get into the tail pulley and idlers. Related products: Prime Tracker belt tracking idler, Three-roll tracking frame and V-plough scraper.
