The digital and cloud-based solutions that will help operators and maintenance team in saving considerable amount of time and labor costs, round off the portfolio. In addition, Continental’s demonstrators also gave a sneak peek to the interested customers into the future of belt monitoring and predictive maintenance for conveyor belts with smart solutions powered by state-of-the-art technologies such as AI.

During the 9th International Mining, Equipment, Minerals & Metals Exhibition at Kolkata, the SKF team exhibited products and services including:

ContiPipe belt with Conti Multiprotect monitoring system 

The unique patent-pending reinforcement of ContiPipe provides enhanced transverse stiffness, which allows greater resistance to collapse, excellent seal closure and resistance to downward rotation – regardless of the path the belt must travel.

ContiClean non-stick surface solution 

In the conveying process, many dry materials become moistened and sticky due to water or moisture dissolution, which makes it more difficult to transport. The new Continental ContiClean solution solves this “sticking issue” and is suitable for use in a wide range of industries. 

Solar-Shield heat protection solution 

The Solar-Shield heat protection system comes in four varieties to best suit the customer’s requirements. Improved heat resistance elongates belt life by around 2-3 years, ensuring lesser belt replacement and increase in business.

Preform splice technology 

Pre-formed splices have been proven to improve efficiency in experiments with two-pulley dynamic splice tester at Continental’s Marysville plant and at the Institute for Transport and Automation Technology at Leibniz University Hannover. Since its market debut in 2003, the technology has been used in over 4,600 projects worldwide.

Services, material, accessories & components 

Continental understands the critical role that conveyor products play in customers productivity. Our range of diverse, innovative conveyor products are designed to optimise your conveyor systems reliability and performance, including conveyor pulley and lagging, belt cleaners, Trackers etc.
