Conveyor Hoods

Conveyor Hoods are keeping the transported material on the belt after the loading point and at the same time protecting it against rain and wind is important.Conveyor hoods are a robust construction of aluminum or galvanized steel, which efficiently protects the material being carried from being blown off the conveyor. The work environment is improved while safety also increases. The strong design is also very suitable for cold climates where snow loads need to be considered. On Inclined Belt Conveyors which are not covered, rain can cause major problems because the material gets washed away. This problem is efficiently eliminated with conveyor hoods. The sides can be opened easily, to permit inspection or roller replacement, simplifying maintenance.
