1600 mm Belt Width conveyor at Coal Handling Plant
Traditional impact bed system was replaced by JUMBO
Nut bolt structures have been eliminated, thus reducing the frequent maintenance required due to loosening of the belt.
The saddles were working fine even after 3 years with 30% life left.
Only the middle saddles under the direct impact zone needed replacement.
