Course Overview
Conveyor drives are an essential component of most bulk material handling systems. Ensuring continuous and reliable function is essential to the productivity and efficiency of the operation as a whole.
In this 5-day course, our expert instructor will look at the root cause behind much of the maintenance burden associated with conveyor systems. Starting with the 3T’s – Transfers, Take-ups and Transitions – we follow through with practical maintenance procedures to cover inspections, belt tracking, cleaning systems and belt splicing.
The overall objective is not only to create a practical learning environment but to create a consistent approach to the way maintenance is conducted on the materials handling system.
It is also aimed at giving all participants the confidence to look at the problems they may encounter in a material handling system with an open and enquiring mind such that they seek the real causes to these problems.
