Superior Industries applies auto level technology to conveyor moves

Posted on 14 Dec 2015

Superior Industries, Inc, the major US-based manufacturer and global supplier of bulk material processing and handling systems, has released new technology that allows its TeleStacker Conveyors to maintain level movement while in radial travel mode. This patent-pending technology allows the telescopic radial stacking conveyor to maintain a balanced conveyor structure. As a result, the TeleStacker Conveyors belting is less prone to mistracking. Uneven conveyor structure, says Superior, is one of the leading causes of inaccurate belt tracking.

Auto level technology is standard on all FD Axle model TeleStacker Conveyors equipped with PilePro™ Automation. Superior manufactures FD Axle models in lengths of 33.5 m, 39.6 m, 41.5 m, 45.7 m and 48 m. Superior Industries engineers and manufactures bulk material processing and handling equipment and cutting-edge components related to the machinery. From its headquarters in Morris, Minnesota, the manufacturing firm supplies bulk crushing, screening, washing and conveying systems for mining. In addition to its home plant in Minnesota, the 43-year-old Superior operates from additional engineering and manufacturing centres in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan and Nebraska, US; Alberta and New Brunswick, Canada; and three production facilities in Brazil.
