According to CEMA, the main influences in selection are belt weight, material weight, load rating, belt sag, idler life, belt rating and belt tension. Its a confusing combination of data that weve tried to simplify with our Idler Selector Calculator. Find it in the Quick Links section at superior-ind.com. The rule of thumb considers belt speed. At 400 FPM consider a 4 idler, 500 FPM is 5, 600 FPM is 6 and so on. Its also a fact that larger diameter rolls have longer lives due to fewer revolutions and thicker shells. We have distribution partners with inventory throughout North America and Central America. For local service and fast deliveries, see our partners at superior-ind.com/distributor.

Fugitive Material
In the beginning, our plant was stocked by another brand and some of them were lasting just three months! We run a lot of wet sand and they werent making the cut.
Seal Power
With other brands, the problems were directly related to bearing failure. Sand was getting through the seals and into the can. I read about Superiors seal in magazines and now Im witnessing it!
Competitive Comparison
Comparing brand to brand, we get three sometimes four times the life with Superior Idlers. They definitely fit the bill!

Moxie Rolls
Theres a combination of materials that go into the recipe to develop our specially formulated Moxie rolls. Compared to the rest of the market, we offer the thickest shell. Our 6 diameter rolls are equipped with a 1 thick shell while our 5 rolls are 1/2 thick. Weighing in at more than 40% lighter than their steel equivalents, Moxie rolls are much lighter on the backs and bones of your maintenance crews. Easier mounting helps prevent back injuries, especially in applications with suspended belts, difficult to access rollers and long conveyors.

Pizza Cutter
If we didnt catch a worn steel roll in time, the sharp points would catch the clips, tear them apart and cause a rip all the way down the belt. That is an expensive problem!
Belt Stress
Belts arent all that easy to come by, so the operation would easily be down a day or more when there was a big tear. That is a problem at our operations with round-the-clock load-outs.
Energy Efficiency
The decision to switch to Moxie rolls alone is one of the biggest keys to our current efficiency at the new wash plant.

If you have problems keeping water or slurry out of your idler bearings, regreasable idlers are an alternative. Because you are always purging the bearing with grease, water isnt able to do as much damage. It is totally dependent on your application and so no one answer is accurate. If you can blame idler failures on water or slurry damage, regrease more often. It could be as often as every day. As ball bearing technology has improved and the cost of maintenance has increased, ball bearings have significantly replaced tapered roll as the market standard. 5 7 6

u u
Self-Aligning Idlers
There are many factors that cause belt mis-tracking, although some only affect the top side of the belt. Common to radial stackers, off-center loading causes mis-tracking to the belts top side. A carry-side, or troughing self-aligner will track the belt straight at every radial position. It comes down to simple economics. However, there are also distinct performance comparisons. The Navigator return trainer evolved from the self-aligner to solve issues with contact to belt guides. Compared to a harder, straighter style guide, the concave shape makes for a softer landing when the side of the belt contacts the guide.
Misaligned belts contact side roller or shoe pad After contact, idler pivots and centers belt Compared to steel, urethane side guide rollers are softer on belting Concave shaped side guide rollers keeps traction on belting

The trainer can be used in any application where belt tracking is an issue. Its also recommended for applications where return self-aligners will not fit or are not working. We recommend 25 to 50 feet from the tail or head pulley on the belts bottom or return side and then every 100 feet after that on longer span conveyors. However, if there is a specific spot where there are tracking issues, install the trainer one to two idlers upstream. If you need to, they are off-the-shelf, flange mount bearings that can be replaced with an extended socket. However, compared to other trainers, the Navigator return trainer is equipped with larger bearings designed to last the life of the product.

Producer Perspective
Bad Behavior
When our belts misalign they cut into return frames and can actually cut right through the conveyor. At the least, the conveyor catches the belt lacing and rips the side of the belt.
Pricey Problems
At $15 to $20 a foot and three to four maintenance workers, its a pretty expensive situation to change out a belt and anyway you look at it, its downtime!
Advanced Alternative
The Navigator return trainer just seems to handle the belt better than those ones with the side guide rollers. They let the belt travel too far before they even start doing anything.
How it Works
Misaligned Belt Belt Alignment Aligned Belt
Misaligned belt puts pressure on one side of the Navigator return trainer

Urathon return rolls are best in applications when wet or sticky material cakes or bonds to steel cans, a problem that can often result in belt mis-tracking. Both the standard and spiral versions of this return roll are made from a 87A durometer urethane.

Balloon Effect
Clay sticks to steel like a magnet, causing buildup that makes the steel rolls almost double in size. This leads to all kinds of problems!
Bloating Steel
Some of the steel rolls got so heavy that they stopped rolling. The belt would simply slide across the top of them and potentially end up ripping if you didnt catch it in time.

These rolls save me time and money and eliminate all the downtime we used to have in change-outs. There is no reason to look any further!

Like the Urathon return roll and rubber style returns, the beater bar is another tool to defeat sticky material buildup on the return side of your belt. Also, applications with cleated belts where belt cleaners are not an effective cleaning tool. Typically, we suggest installing the beater bar in the first return roll location from the head pulley. Here, the cleaning is focused on one roll rather than stressing out all the return rollers.

Because material is often handled in the center two-thirds of the belt, wider blades wear faster in the center developing a smile wear pattern. The scraper then loses its effectiveness. Sized to your belt width minus 8, the belt cleaner will wear more evenly. Roughly, its about four to six times throughout the life of the blade. However, we do offer a primary cleaner with a set for life tensioning system. If you do not want to waste the time on maintenance, ask to be upgraded to the Exterra SFL Primary Belt Cleaner. (Fig 14.1) There are two options belt width plus 30 or belt width plus 42.

Whenever the belt is not getting clean enough with a primary scraper is the simplest answer. More specifically, in applications with sticky, aggressive material when cleaning is absolutely necessary. Because conveyor frames are not usually designed to accommodate secondary cleaners, they arent usually installed. Sharing one mounting pole, this system allows primary and secondary cleaning power without modifying a conveyor structure. If you have room for a single primary belt scraper in your application, then you will have plenty of room for this model. However, the unit will not fit near a snub pulley, even if that region is equipped with a primary scraper.

Systems where fugitive material is causing wing bending, where uptime is crucial and where noise levels might be a concern. Compared to standard wing pulleys, the Chevron wing is a good alternative for a gravity take-up. Its a location where you have spillage and where you want to prevent wedged rocks and bent wings. A spirals corkscrew shape means they require many spins to auger material from the middle out to the side, versus the material simply deflecting off the plow shaped Chevron wing.

Producer Perspective
Vibrating Office
I would sit in my office in the scale house and the windows would shake. The vibration is gone now and the only thing we changed were the pulleys!
Bent Wings
Our old pulleys had wings folding over or even breaking off, and they were eating away at the bottom side of the belt. Since then, we have installed close to 20 Chevron wing pulleys. Even if we a have little bit of leakage, it spits the rocks out before they bend the wings.
Plugged Ears
The noise levels are a night and day difference. We are in the middle of a city, so to have stopped the constant rattling sounds is huge for us.

u u
When compared to smooth covers, a corrugated design is naturally stronger. On its own, each channel (or rib) increases the bending strength of the entire cover. So think of each rib as a little muscle. Another benefit of a corrugated design is that it allows the cover to be self supporting. That means no additional structure (like supports) is required to hold the cover to the conveyor.
Our standard covers, as defined in the quick specs above and on the back page, are available for immediate deliveries. Meanwhile, our optional covers and accessories are built to order.

Sealing System
Prevent Material Spillage in Load Zones
Sealing System
Do you have spillage in load zones of your systems? If yes, then you have the application. While normal idler rolls create spacing between the conveyor belt and hopper skirting, the sealing cartridges or bars are designed to close that gap, making for a tight seal. While in some cases they look the same, no, this is not an impact bed. The sealing system is designed to handle finer material which can leak out in load zones.
Is it an impact bed?

Impact Beds
Protect Conveyor Belts from the Beating of Large Material Lumps
Impact Beds
The impact bars are made from a top layer of 1/2 UHMW and a bottom layer of 2-1/2 SBR rubber. You bet! Any application that exceeds the specs of our entry level impact bed will graduate to an engineered class. Unfortunately, there is no simple answer or equation. We need specific application data (i.e. material size, tons per hour, drop height, etc.) and our engineering team can calculate the style and size needed for your job.
Energy absorbing impact bars protect belting from falling material Bars made of low-friction UHMW and high impact SBR rubber Rigid, structurally sound frame for extra support Custom engineered style available on request (Fig 20.1) Wings adjust to 20, 35 and 45 Available in 4 or 5 lengths

Take-Ups
The common rule of thumb is to choose a travel size that is 2% of your center to center belt length. The ACME screw has nonbinding characteristics resulting in less seizing and longer life. ACME screws are standard on all of our take-ups. The screw is the heartbeat of the take-up. Once damaged or bent, you lose the effectiveness of the component. Telescoping tube take-ups are the only style manufactured with a completely enclosed screw, although each model has some protection to block material.

Depending on your needs, you can purchase each of the following separately or together as a total package: WB or HD belt scale, PM1500 or PM2000 integrator and the speed sensor. If possible, its best to install on the first half of the conveyor from the tail pulley. Installation should be at least 20 feet from your load zone and 40 feet from any curve up or down. The owners manual is packed with more specific details to help get it right. There is good news! In most cases, both the PM1500 and PM2000 are designed to recognize third party sensors. However, the SS-150 comes standard with the package.

The sensor is designed to count return roll idler rotations, feeding the data back to a conveyors automation program. Operators set the speed (FPM) that indicates a problem and can be alerted via an audible alarm, a light or a cutoff switch. The distance between the proximity sensor face and the bolt head lugs on the idler should be 5/16.
