Dependability

Undoubtedly the best feature of the Magaldi Superbelt is its dependability. Unlike other conveyors, the Magaldi Superbelt cannot fail suddenly and keeps on running even in emergency conditions.

A rubber belt can be burned by hot material or can be cut by a sharp piece, in an apron conveyor a chain can suddenly break, whereas none of similar events can affect the Magaldi Superbelt.

Even if the belt gets damaged locally, it continues to operate without danger of unexpected failure until the next maintenance outage.

High temperature operating ability

The Magaldi Superbelt withstands higher temperatures than any other conveyors because all its components are made of steel and are free to expand in any direction, without distortion. Pans and mesh steel quality are selected to meet any specific requirement.

Impact resistance

The Magaldi Superbelt has a natural elasticity and is supported by idlers across its entire width, which gives it a great ability to absorb mechanical impacts. In impact areas, the idlers are closely spaced so that the impact is distributed over a large area.

Low wear, long life

Wear of the Magaldi Superbelt is negligible, because there is no relative motion between the belt and the material transported on it, and there are no internal moving parts subject to friction.

As a result, even in the heaviest applications the average expected life of the Magaldi Superbelt is 10 years.

Low operational & maintenance costs

The Magaldi Superbelt has no chains, wheels or sprockets so the only points requiring lubrication are the drive and tail pulley bearings. Idlers and rollers are life lubricated.

Replacement of idlers is easy and quick, just like in rubber belt conveyors.

The Magaldi Superbelt requires less power than apron conveyors or drag chain conveyors.

The Magaldi Superbelt lasts longer than other conveyors.

Safe and clean working environment

The overlapping belt pans fit so tightly that there is no clearance between adjacent plates, so no leakage of fines occurs.

The Magaldi Superbelt runs smoothly, with a noise level normally under 65 dB.

Cost-effective retrofitting

The concept of the Magaldi Superbelt is similar to traditional belt conveyors in most cases, which allows retrofitting.

The carrying idlers and return rollers can be fitted on existing frames of rubber belts or apron conveyors, turning old equipment into a much more dependable Magaldi Superbelt conveyor.
