High-level look at the impact fugitive material has on facilities using conveyors and a deep dive into issues with fugitive material.

Learn how proper belt support contributes to cleaner, safer, and more productive bulk material handling.

Often times designers shorten transition distance to reduce costs and/or fit conveyors into an existing space. 

Identify impingement & impact damage and drastically reduce or prevent it altogether while adding years to the life of your belt!

Most experts suggest that conveyor belts can last 15 years. If your belts aren't lasting that long, they might be damaged. Belt damage can be prevented. 

A mistracked belt will prematurely damage, cause spillage, and put a strain on limited resources. Here we discuss the correct strategies to keep the belt running straight.

Learn how to justify conveyor projects by demonstrating it is more costly to not do a project than to do it.

Conveyor belting must be joined together to make a continuous loop through splicing. There are several important factors to consider when splicing.

Take a deep dive into belt cleaner selection to be sure you understand how to effectively clean a belt.

We’ll share tactics that have proved successful in cleaning belts in pulp and paper mills. 

Learn new techniques to control carryback that can have an immediate impact on your conveyors’ performance.

If your facility has ever experienced belt mistracking or carryback, it may be due to errors at the head pulley.

Air Cannons prevent buildups and obstructions by releasing controlled yet powerful bursts of air without risking damage to equipment.

Proper selection, installation, and use of a vibrator can maximize production, reduce downtime, and increase safety for your operation. 

Using the correct nozzle can mitigate material buildup to maximize production rates, minimize downtime, and reduce installation and maintenance requirements.

We will discuss the proper application of vibrators to efficiently stimulate the continued flow of material AND eliminate damage to bins, hoppers, and chutes.

Air cannons help safely restore material flow and in turn, reduce costs.

Implementing passive dust control tactics on conveyor transfer points can meet acceptable dust levels while reducing costs.

Dust & spillage creates environmental & health concerns, premature equipment failure, safety hazards, lost material, and increased cleanup costs. 

Conveyor dust and spillage, found at a load zone, can be reduced with proper maintenance. 

Belt conveyors are very effective but also dangerous if not treated with caution. Unfortunately, almost every day workers are harmed while working around conveyors. 

Tragically, a miner was fatally injured in early February when pulled into the belt conveyor's tail pulley. In this webinar, we discuss the risks workers face in relation to belt conveyor tail pulleys. 

Mike has many years of mining experience as well as teaching new miner training. He has helped plants and mines reduce the risk of injury by helping them create strategies to prevent accidents and educating employees on the risks of their job.

What if safety is not first or a priority but rather an always approach? Check out this thought-provoking interview with Martin Engineering’s Safety Manager, Lindsey, where we’ll discuss how you could evolve your people's and company’s safety culture. 

NSSGA advances public policies that protect and expand the safe, environmentally responsible use of aggregates that build America’s infrastructure and economy.
