Dynamic H – Block Tester
Increased integrity means longer life.
We know that each cord’s adhesion to the insulation gum is critical to a steel cord belt’s
performance – better adhesion means better load sharing, corrosion resistance, and idler
junction performance to name just a few of the benefits. This test simulates the real-life,
dynamic conditions that a belt experiences.
Tests: AS 1333-6.10
Ultrasonic Belt Gauge
On site, Technical Managers and Authorized Distributors use a custom-programmed,
high-tech ultrasonic gauge to accurately measure the depth of the belt cover. This gauge
helps determine the level of wear and belt cover life and can help you decide when to
schedule belt replacement.
Finite Element Analysis
Bringing new products to market faster.
Used throughout our entire development process, finite element analysis correlates data to actual
manufacturing, processing, and field performance before a belt or splice design is ever attempted.
The end result is an optimized product and a reduced development cycle, allowing us to bring
superior products to market more quickly.
Impact Tester
Developing belts that take a beating.
Many material handling applications experience belt punctures that typically occur in
the loading zone. Therefore, we developed this machine to dynamically test a belt’s ability to
withstand impact damage. Case in point, our patented Triple-Warp
™
fabric used in Conquest
®
,
Coal Quest
®
,
and Conquest LW belts.
Tests: Internally developed test standards.
Smarter from the Ground Up.
One of the most powerful components that goes into our heavyweight conveyor belting
is your input. You see, in many cases we talk to customers to find out what their specific
performance needs are for a variety of applications. We think that’s a smart way to make
belting. Sure, Research and Development can do a lot to help customers succeed, but it
can do even more when it is informed by valuable customer input as well.
