“Our old canvas weigh hopper connectors used to block regularly which meant we had to stop production while we sorted it out. BFM has totally solved the problem and we have had no lost production ever since. The factory is also safer and cleaner.” Factory Manager
Canvas weigh hopper connectors at a leading concrete products manufacturer absorbed moisture, making them prone to blockage causing lost productivity and poor weighing accuracy. To add to the problem, jubilee clips caused excessive dust leakage and made replacement extremely time consuming.
