Superior Industries has unveiled \u201cthe most significant redesign to conveyor idlers in decades.\u201d This update is backed by a substantial $4.5 million investment in cutting-edge idler manufacturing equipment at its American production locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\u201cTens of thousands of Superior idlers are installed on our own conveyors every year, so roll performance really, really matters,\u201d emphasized Jason Adams, president of Superior.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe new idler exceeds our own high performance standards and we\u2019re excited for other conveyor owners and operators to benefit from this upgrade.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Superior invites industry stakeholders to explore their new advancements in conveyor idler technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to Superior Industries, these are the key innovations of the new design:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ironclad Weld Joint at Tube to End Disc<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
- Flush end disc prevents material entrapment between roll and frame.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Weld bead is securely housed within the roll\u2019s structure, ensuring added durability.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Modern, robotic welding for greater weld penetration and extreme consistency.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Revamped Designs of Idler Bearing Seals<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A decade of rigorous testing results in an unmatched bearing protection system.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Lifespan of standard bearing seals surpasses all other models tested.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Premium Titanium Seal provides extended longevity for demanding applications.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Major Upgrade to Idler Manufacturing<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
- Improving industry-leading pace, Superior achieves new heights in manufacturing speed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Manufacturing production rate of standard and custom idlers sees 35% increase.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- ntegration of robotic manufacturing ensures a level of consistency previously unseen.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
