Belt conveyor Ecobelt®

for hot materialsfor the metallurgical industrycontinuous

Sinter plants must run at peak performance to successfully produce under high-cost pressure. It means no equipment failures or costly material break-ups can occur. That is why more sinter plants are breaking with conventional solutions (rubber belts, vibratory or apron-based conveyors) in favor of a more reliable way to transport sinter. Thanks to its excellent heat and abrasion resistance features, the Ecobelt® conveyor is used to move sinter lumps, at very high temperatures, from the primary crusher to the rotary cooler, or it can be installed at the cooler discharge for further transport if the material is still too hot for rubber belt conveyors. The Ecobelt® conveyor features partially overlapping steel pans securely bolted on a patented steel double-wire mesh system. The pans are provided with transversal cleats to keep material on the belt when traveling along inclines. The belt damage-tolerant design is based on a multi-link concept: the mesh provides redundancy, little to no maintenance, and trouble-free continuous operation. Even in case the mesh gets severely damaged, the conveyor will keep running without sudden failures till the scheduled maintenance. The trouble-free operation ensures productivity and profitability and results in greater efficiency and uptime during a 24/7, year-round process.
