Flexco PT Pro EZ belt centring station

Flexco’s PT Pro EZ belt centring stations can detect and correct misalignment of conveyor belts. The belt guide roller is polyurethane-coated, which increases service life and gives it better traction when moist.

Suitable for light to medium-duty applications and for reversible belts with belt widths up to 1200 mm, the station is quick and easy to fit thanks to the simple design of brackets and components. With the help of the PT Pro Belt Trainer, conveyor system operators can also use this system on belts with worn or damaged edges.

The centring station corrects belt misalignment on one or both sides. No sensor rollers are required as the tapered rollers initiate movement of the belt guiding system. The unit responds immediately to misalignment and corrects it, while ensuring that the belt does not touch the structure, thus preventing damage and reducing maintenance costs.

The system features pivot and tilt movement. Pivoting affects the direction while tilting increases the tension on the incorrectly guided side. These two forces therefore move the belt quickly back to the centre. The belt centring system is suitable for belt speeds of up to 5 m/s and can be used in both damp and dry environments.
