Elastotec works closely with mining companies, manufacturers such as PROK Conveyor Components, Nepean Mining, Metso, Thyssenkrupp, Martin Gear & Sprocket, Continental, Continental Global, Fenner Dunlop and pulley refurbishment companies and our network of “Approved Applicators” to develop and refine our products based on operational feedback and technological advances. We collect data on lagging condition/failure from our international network of “Approved Applicators” each time they receive a pulley for refurbishment. This enables us to build a picture of the factors that reduce service life across lagging from many suppliers. With extensive experience in the latest elastomer technology, as well as bonding and adhesion of elastomers to various substrates, our engineering expertise is focused on developing lagging that eliminates or at least minimizes these failure modes.
If you work in mining company operations/maintenance or are involved in the manufacture and refurbishment of conveyor pulleys, then we would like to share more about our ground-breaking work at Elastotec with you.
