Is your warehouse keeping up with customer expectations? When conveyor transfer gaps cause delays, damaged goods, and inefficiencies, your bottom line—and your reputation—take a hit. Discover how proactive solutions can eliminate these challenges, streamline operations, and enhance customer satisfaction.
A copper-gold mine located in New South Wales, Australia was experiencing premature failure of belt cleaner cushioning systems on one of its underground transfer conveyors. Cushions on the site's existing standard P-Type style secondary cleaner were fatiguing and failing before the next scheduled 6-week shutdown.
A gold-copper mine in the Central West of New South Wales was experiencing significant carryback on a surface belt conveyor. The existing competitor P-Type secondary belt cleaner with bolt tensioning was delivering poor cleaning performance, resulting in frequent material buildup and ongoing manual cleanup.
An Australian underground coal mine was facing persistent carryback and water bypass issues, creating ongoing clean-up demands despite using multiple belt cleaners. Seeking a solution that could also meet strict FRAS safety requirements, the site partnered with Flexco to trial an improved belt cleaning setup.
An Australian glass recycling facility was experiencing severe carryback on a reversing conveyor, leading to excessive cleanup, downtime, and safety concerns. After a detailed audit, Flexco found the right cleaning solution for their application that significantly reduced carryback, cut maintenance time by 87%, and improved overall system reliability.
Transporting dry concrete generates significant dust, making it one of the hardest materials to handle especially in fine particle form. Dust control is essential because it can cause respiratory, cardiovascular, skin, and eye health issues. Sites prioritize minimizing dust not only for worker safety but also to comply with strict environmental regulations across Australia.
