What is a traffic cover?

The conveyor cover is part installed on a transport system that protects other components and materials in transmission from elements or potential impacts. Such a component is usually installed on long -distance trafficpers, although the internal conveyor can be installed in the transport cover, if the materials need to be protected from moisture or other contaminants. The packaging may also be used if workers or other machines must be protected from the transported content; This is common if the materials risk will be released from the transport belt at any point.

In most cases, the transport cover will be made of durable metal such as steel. This ensures that the coverage will not be easily deepened or otherwise damaged, although in some cases it may be susceptible to rust. Some covers are therefore made of galvanized steel, which is more resistant to rust and corrosion; Others can be painted or otherwise covered with a protective coating to prevent rust, corrosion nEbo with other types of damage. Aluminum covers are also available; Such transport cover models will be lighter than steel and will be more susceptible to damage, but aluminum is more resistant to corrosion and can actually be cheaper than steel. Although it is not common, plastic covers are also available for lighter applications.

The conveyor cover usually creates a closed system because it connects to the conveyor frame without a space between the frame and the cover. However, some covers can be mounted on the feet that create a gap between the conveyor frame and the cover itself. This can be done to ensure correct ventilation of the transported items or to facilitate the monitoring of the transport process. The packaging will not be so effective in protecting the content of the transport system if it is raised from the frame, but will still protect components and materials to some extent.

Sometimes the cover will only take place through the part of the transport system, so farWhat other parts of the system can be left open to facilitate loading and unloading the transport system. The conveyor cover will generally not run to the end of the transport system, because the ends of the system are generally where there is loading and unloading; If the transported materials need to be monitored or checked in the middle of the system, the cover may be interrupted to achieve it.
