Lower Cost-per-Ton
Fewer conveyors and splices, shorter take-ups, and reduced belt inventory add
up to significant cost savings right up front. Longer belt life, life-long splices,
excellent belt training, and reduced downtime save you even more down the
road. It all adds up to the a lower cost-per-ton of material conveyed, which can
make a major improvement in your bottom line.
Exceptional Belt Training
Flexsteel belts are built in a “uniplane” construction, where cords are laid in
precisely the same plane with tension carefully controlled and equalized under
cure. Belts run straight and true because cords are laid with alternating left and
right hand twist. Flexsteel’s superior troughing characteristics help ensure that
the belt is in constant contact with idlers, which further enhances its ability to
run straight.
Sensor Guard
®
with RFID Technology
Perhaps the most important feature of a Flexsteel belt is that it is available with
Sensor Guard. The most widely known and most field-proven rip detection
system in the world, Sensor Guard has saved companies millions of dollars in
potential production losses, downtime, and spare belting.
