Upcoming October 10-13th we are participating as a co-exhibitor on the CED stand at the MSV International Fair for Industrial Engineering in the Brno Expo Centre. We would be happy to meet with you at stand 048 (Pavilion V) and discuss possible conveyingsolutions for heavyduty industries (mining, quarry, waste recycling).

Looking forward to seeing you.

In the production-process of conveyor belts, we are able to weld a variety of profiles, strips, guides, and shapes on the conveyor belt surface. These accessories can be selected from a large selection of colors and shapes – best suited to its purpose.

During Summer travels through the countryside you can often see large grass fields filled with numerous large round bales of hay and straw waiting for being transported to the farms to feed animals. Basically, you are witnessing another agricultural engineering invention that has helped farmers around the world to complete their harvesting so much more efficiently.

In the industrial development of agriculture, the combine harvester machine is one of the most impactful technical inventions.  As the name reveals it comes from combining 3 different harvesting operations (mowing, threshing, and cleaning seeds) into one single process. The combine can harvest a wide variety of different crops such as corn, grain, oats, sunflowers, and rye. The straw that remains after the harvesting is left on the land to dry. When the straw is dry the farmer can spread and plowed back into his land. Alternatively, he can process the straw into round bales and collect them as food for his horses and/or cows.

ElectroStatic Dissipative (ESD) and AntiStatic (AS) Conveyor-belts

Most conveyor belts are made of certain polymers with high surface resistance. This provides certain insulation that does not allow electrostatic charge and discharge. Those belts are called insulated or conductive if they have a surface resistance (resistivity factor) higher than 1012 ohm/sqm. The issue with such belts is that the discharge of static build-up electricity during the conveying may damage the conveyed products or may even cause other damages during the manufacturing process. Conveyor belts used in certain applications may not be charged electrostatically.
