Misalignment of the conveyor belt is a frequent cause of material loss in conveyor systems. Flexco has designed PT Pro EZ as a belt guide roller that is coated with polyurethane for longer service life and better traction when moist.
The new belt centring station is suitable for light to medium-duty applications and for reversible belts with belt widths up to 1,200 mm.
The station is quick and easy to fit with the simple design of brackets and components.
Conveyor system operators can also use the PT Pro Belt Trainer on belts with worn or damaged edges.
The new belt centring station corrects belt misalignment on one or both sides.
No sensor rollers are required as the tapered rollers initiate movement of the belt guiding system.
The unit responds immediately to misalignment and corrects it.
It also ensures that the belt does not touch the structure, thus preventing damage and reducing maintenance costs.
The unit has the pivot and tilt movement.
Pivoting affects the direction while tilting increases the tension on the incorrectly guided side.
These two forces therefore move the belt quickly back to the center.
The belt centring system is suitable for belt speeds of up to five meters per second.
It can be used in both damp and dry environments.
