Harsh operational demands

The customer required a mission-critical replacement for a decades-old incline conveyor. The new conveyor needed to handle extreme high-impact loading for sustained periods of time. It also needed to be weatherproofed, remaining open to the elements as it operated. Like its predecessor, it needed to be durable and reliable in these tough conditions.

"Tough industrial conveying in the most difficult environments isn't always pretty, but done right, it can transform an operation. You have to adapt the conveyor design, construction and implementation to fit the need. This lets you build a durable system that can function as you need it to, where you need it to.

The solution: Rugged incline conveyor integration with high-volume recycling operations

This conveyor delivered on all the requirements for recycling large volumes of material scrap. At 60' long and 72" wide, it allows for bulk transport from multiple infeed sources. Its large flared sides help contain scrap once loaded into the system.

Versatile shock loading built in

The ground-level infeed loads from the side by front-end loaders or directly from dump trailers. This allows the operation to reliably load the system without risking damage or operational disruptions.

Engineered material considerations

The system processes both loose cardboard and dense cardboard bundles from a compactor. This allows it to process all the operational sources of cardboard scrap

Feeding an industrial shredder

The conveyor inclines to a discharge point that feeds directly into a large industrial shredder with a reliable flow of material inputs from all relevant sources. This allows the shredder to operate continuously if needed.

Integrated slurry operations

The conveyor design accounts for the introduction of a wet slurry to the cardboard as it exits the conveyor and enters the grinder to allow full operations for all potential loads.

Design and engineering decisions

Technical validation: Engineers verified current load weights and belt speeds to ensure the new system surpassed the performance of the aging equipment
Environmental resilience: Components were selected to withstand constant exposure to the elements and the moisture introduced during the grinding process

The results: reliable bulk recycling

The new conveyor restored a primary production line, allowing the facility to continue processing bulk recycling without interruption.
