FRIFLO IMPACT BARS: EFFECTIVE IMPACT PROTECTION AT CONVEYOR LOADING POINT

Competitor
FAILED AND REPLACED EVERY 6 MONTHS
FriFlo
4 YEARS OPERATION, STILL IN PLACE

This installation provided a rare opportunity to obtain a direct comparison of the durability of FriFlo vs a leading competitor. The end result proves the superior design, quality and lower whole life cost of FriFlo impact bars. Highly adjustable FriFlo cradle allows set up to be fine tuned for optimum belt running conditions.

The Challenge:

Loading high volumes of granite, sand and gravel onto a conveyor system was creating problems. Loading from height lead to heavy impact which was causing belt damage, spillage, dust, noise and excessive downtime. The existing impact cradle offered no adjustment therefore the client decided to install the highly adjustable FriFlo system.

Our Solution:

FriFlo impact cradle with FriFlo impact bars

The Improvement:

All loading point problems solved

Competitor impact bars – failed and replaced every 6 months
FriFlo impact bars – 4 years operation, still in place
