In our modern fast industrial society, material handling cannot be considered and has not always been a support operation, but rather the heartbeat behind which mining, cement, and steel facilities operate. Each ton of ore, each bag of cement and each coil of steel manufactured is dependent on the efficiency of the transportation of raw material through the plant. Material handling downtime may imply delayed production, increased expenses, and unhappy customers. This is the reason why manufacturing companies in every part of the world are still investing in more intelligent, long-term handling solutions that ensure reliability and efficiency.

The smallest elements of this ecosystem, and its core, are conveyors and rollers--unassuming parts that determine either the smooth running of a whole operation or its failures. When these systems are configured to be precise and of high quality, then the plants experience increased output, life of belts, and low maintenance. The after consequences are expensive when they are not taken care of.

Why are Material Handling Reliable Materials Important in Heavy Industries?

Among the most demanding industries in the world are mining, cement and steel industries. Both of them transport huge amounts of raw materials in inhuman conditions:

• Mining plants deal with abrasive ores, rocks, and minerals which cause heavy strain to equipment.
• Limestone, clinker and other raw materials are introduced to cement plants in large amounts and conveyor systems must be continuous.
• The steel plants have high-temperature processes, bulk raw feed and finished coils which require a delicate but strong handling.

In these sectors, all halts have a direct impact on production. Failure of just one material handling line can put a stop to the production process, and raise the downtime expenses and affect customer commitments. Hence, the plants must be served by something exceptional, they need equipment that is constructed to work under pressure, day after day.

Conveyors: This is the Backbone of Fluent Processes.

The lifeline of bulk material handling has now turned to conveyors. Conveyors transfer materials safely, continuously, and at a low cost as opposed to manual handling or the traditional ways. They reduce the participation of human beings in risky zones and also make sure that raw materials are transported to processing facilities without being interrupted.

However, a conveyor system is as powerful as the smallest part of it. Here rollers and idlers come in. They tend to remain unseen, yet they hold the belt, cushion the blow, direct the alignment and provide stability to the whole system. High-quality rollers mean:

• Longer conveyor belt life
• Lower energy consumption
• Less breakdowns and stoppages.
• Less maintenance costs.

Conversely, bad rollers or wrongly positioned rollers may lead to mis-tracking of the belts, early wear and even total breakdown of the system.

Typical Problems In the absence of effective material handling solutions.

In those cases when industries focus on achieving quality or when maintenance is deferred in systems of material handling, there are numerous issues that manifest themselves too soon:

1. High Breakdown Rates - Low quality rollers and poor frames collapse when subjected to heavy loads, which sends the plants into unplanned downtime.
2. High Maintenance Costs- Ineffective sealing results in entry of dust, wear and tear, and a replacement requirement.
3. Belt Damage- Belts are one of the most expensive components of a conveyor that can be damaged by misaligned or worn rollers.
4. Safety Risks- Malfunctioning handling equipment will contribute to accidental risk and spillage as well as fire hazards.
5. Poor Energy efficiency-The poor quality of components results in resistance thus compelling the motors to use more energy.

All these problems are summed up to one thing, which is increased costs and low productivity. This is unsustainable to the plants which are already running with tight margins.

Intelligent Solution of Contemporary Industries.

The industries nowadays demand not only durable material handling solutions but also intelligently designed solutions to suit their needs. Key innovations include:

• Impact Rollers and Idlers -These are made to absorb shocks in places that heavy materials are loaded onto conveyors.
• Guide and Return Rollers - Be sure that belts are in correct place and minimize wear.
• Energy-Saving Rollers- Constructed with accurate bearings that produce less friction, which save energy during the long-run.
• Frames and Brackets- Special -Give stability even in the extreme environment.
• Windows Systems- Belted systems and spare roller assemblies, which are customized to fit the layouts and capacity needs of plants.

These intelligent solutions translate to fewer stoppages, streamlined operation and much reduction in lifetime operating expenses.
