The covers of chains and pinions, so far made of plastic, have been replaced with a new aluminum cover. The drive rollers are protected by a rear cover that prevents the penetration of dirt and dust. “The new TB series of belt conveyors is more stable and sturdy”, says Gianluca Aloisi, Manager Division Conveyors, Montech. Also accessing the conveyors for maintenance operations is easier and more efficient, thanks to the reduction of locking screws and the use of quick closures. Another enhancement is the sliding sheet metal plate, that can be simply pushed downwards. This avoids dirt and particles falling off the belt and reaching into the conveyor.
Six different frame widths The TB belt conveyors are available with six frame widths, from 60 to 250 mm, and can be ordered with single or double belt. The drive unit can be installed horizontally or vertically, in any position along the entire free length of the frame. The 230/400V motor allows to reach belt speeds from 0.6 to 38.4 m/min. According to the application, the TB belt can carry weights above 100 kg.
Long life under heavy duty All metal parts of Montech belts are made of nickel steel or stainless steel; the transmission rollers are normally made of stainless steel, while the drive rollers are provided with a special rubber cladding. The materials used are compatible with heavy-duty applications in continuous operation.
