Working on a conveyor line to degate and sort castings downstream the blasting process is a hard job and exposes workers to the risk of injuries when performed under a condition of repetitive vibrations, high noise levels, heavy lifting, and respirable dust. For such a physically demanding activity, it makes sense to take every measure to reduce workers’ fatigue and boost their performance. The unique design of the Superbelt® conveyor enables operators to sort finished castings more easily and comfortably, and allows for the use of hydraulic wedges, manipulators or robots directly on the belt for smoother production. The Superbelt® conveyor features partially overlapping steel pans securely bolted on a patented steel double-wire mesh system. The belt damage-tolerant design is based on a multi-link concept: the mesh ensures redundancy, little to no maintenance, and trouble-free continuous operation. Even in the case it gets severely damaged, the conveyor will keep running till the scheduled maintenance, without sudden failures. The trouble-free operation ensures productivity and profitability and results in greater efficiency and uptime during a 24/7, year-round process.
