Tega JUMBO: Impact Bed System
The Conventional impact idlers, sheathed in rubber sleeves or rings, are not always sufficient to absorb the impact energy of the heavy falling materials at the loading zone of the conveyor. The heavy Impact load often damage of the belt due to line contact. . The Idlers being a rotating part are also susceptible to damage and failure of bearings due to accumulation of dust and grime. The malfunctioning of these idlers cause frequent conveyor breakdown and require repeated maintenance. Tega JUMBO Impact Bed systems are designed to work in such adverse conditions by effectively dampening the impact of heavy materials. Being a non-rotating part JUMBO requires Zero maintenance thus decreasing downtime, increasing operational efficiency and lowering maintenance cost.
Tega JUMBO Impact bed system comprises of Impact saddles and frame, which is custom designed as per the application severity and duty conditions. Tega Impact saddles is made of UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Poly-Ethylene) for smooth gliding of the conveyer belt.
The support frame, which is usually made of Mild Steel.
A spring mechanism along with rubber is squeezed between the frame structure and saddle and hence the elasticity of the spring and rubber is fully utilized in this design and the low-friction feature of the UHMWPE always ensures smooth conveyor movement, with minimal wear of belt bottom cover.

Features and benefits
Features | Benefits |
Optimized design | High “Load bearing capacity to weight ratio” for avoiding premature failures. |
Minimal Belt damage | Higher Belt Contact Area with efficient load transfer and impact absorption |
Longer Life | Negligible wear due to Wear-Resistant UHMWPE top layer |
Adaptable product | Variable trough angle suits the design as the top profile is circular. |
Lower maintenance and down time | Regular Maintenance and Lubrication not required due to absence of rotating parts |
Reduced Spillage | Continuous support under the belt resulting in minimal belt |
