Industrial Applications

These carrying idlers are deployed across iron ore transfer conveyors, sinter plant feed lines, and sponge iron handling systems in integrated steel plants. They are built to sustain continuous operation in high-temperature, abrasive environments found near blast furnaces and rotary kilns.
Application 1

Iron Ore Transfer Conveyors

Transporting crushed iron ore from stockyard to blast furnace feed bins across long-distance overland conveyors operating 24/7.
Application 2

Sinter Plant Feed Lines

Handling hot sinter mix and return fines on inclined conveyors with high ambient temperatures and heavy particulate exposure.
Application 3

Sponge Iron (DRI) Handling

Conveying hot direct reduced iron from rotary kilns to cooling drums, requiring idlers rated for elevated material temperatures.
