Conveyor cleans up
August 1st 2007

Rusmail Conveyor Systems has helped solve a waste collection problem for Oxford Plastics with its QD belt conveyors.

The belts replaced an earlier roller system and had to be specially reinforced to cope with hot and heavy loads, 60°C recycled plastic pedestals for security fencing, weighing 25kg, are dropped onto the conveyor from presses. A by-product of this process is waste material which previously fell through the gaps between the rollers on the original conveyor and onto the floor. It then had to be collected manually and cleared away.

Using Rusmail's QD Belt Conveyors, the waste material remains on the belt along with the plastic bases and then drops off into a waste collector at the end of the conveyor.
