Troughing Idlers Are Designed Such That The Loaded Belt Itself Forms A Troug H, Which Both Reduces The Risk Of Materia I Spillage And Increases The Ultimate Load-bearing
ability Of The Conveyor For Improved Safety And Productivity
Troughing Idlers Consist Of Three Or More Idlers That Guide The Conveyor Belt. They Are Found On The Carrying-side Of The Belt And Are Installed Along The Entire Length Of The Conveyor. The Troughing Idlers Work To Keep The Belt In The Same Configuration All Along Its Length, Which Thus Maintains The Same Cross-sectional Area As The Belt Carries Mined Materia Is From Their Source To The Drop Off Point.
