Industrial Applications

Grain Silo Discharge Points
Absorbing impact at conveyor loading points below grain silos where wheat, rice, and maize are discharged onto belt conveyors.
Sugar Hopper Feed Conveyors
Cushioning belt at sugar hopper outlets in sugar mills where raw or refined sugar drops onto collection conveyors.
Salt Processing Transfer Points
Protecting belt at transfer stations in salt processing plants where crystalline salt is loaded from washing and drying units.
