Protecto conveyors are the obvious choice when conveying material that needs protected from the environment or when the environment needs protected from the material being conveyed.
Protecto Conveyor Offers Seven Important Protection
Environment
- Designed to prevent material spillage
- Keeps surroundings clean and dust-free
- Eliminates product wind loss and carry back
Material Handled
- Prevents material breakage
- Keeps material free from external contamination
- Material lies unaffected on belt throughout conveyor run
Plant Profits
- Fewer drives and smaller horsepower reduce operating costs
- Low maintenance costs
Project Costs
- Requires fewer transfer structures
- Reduced number of drives
- Reduced project horsepower requirement
- Reduced installation cost
- Minimal site grading
- Reduced overall project conveyor length
Design Freedom
- Simple system configuration for space-limited sites
- Flexibility in locating plant process equipment and buildings
- Capable of tight curve radii
- Can achieve steep inclines
- Adapts easily to topographic changes
- Increased capacity compared to conventional belts
- Retrofit existing conveyor systems with minimal outage time
- Bi-Directional material transportion
Plant Real Estate
- Minimal footprint
- Fewer transfer towers
- May use existing structures
Personnel
- High operational safety
- Simplistic design makes service and maintenance easy
- Clean, dust free work environment
