Belt Brakes? Yes,
this product responds instantly and
automatically without any electrical, hydraulic
or pneumatic equipment. Its simple, yet
brilliant patented design responds as soon as
the belt starts to roll back, preventing serious
injuries to workers, belt damage or even
structural damage.
|
- Anti-Roll Back
- by stopping the belt with incremental
brake forces that are generated along the
total length of the conveyor belt.
- Brilliant
Patented Design - with our high
friction “brake plate” & roller adapter that
replaces the existing troughing center
roller.
- Brake Plate
- is activated by a one-way bearing from the
neutral position to the braking position,
causing the conveyor belt to stop.
- Once the one-way bearing is engaged -
the “brake plate” lifts the conveyor belt
off the center roll onto its high friction
surface.
- Belt Brakes are placed every 2-4 idlers
- depending upon application.
