ASGCO announced a new addition to its
line of Tru-Trainer conveyor belt tracking
idlers. The Dual Return Tru-Trainer conveyor
belt tracker is now available in a Vreturn
style, developed to accommodate Vreturn
conveyor systems that encounter
excessive forces when utilizing high tension,
overland style conveyor systems,
which often operate with wide conveyor
belts to accommodate heavy loads. The
Tru-Trainer idlers react as the conveyor belt
moves off center, maintaining the belt’s
original position, minimizing belt wear and
conveyor downtime.
According to the company, the V-Return
Tru-Trainer incorporates an external central
pivot mechanism, obviating the need for a
single, large drum, and enabling a concentric
and balanced rotation to be achieved.
This, says ASGCO, results in extended
bearing life and an effective, fast conveyor
belt tracking system.
