The efficient collection and treatment of scrap is a matter of growing importance to the profitability of aluminum foundries.
Scrap value, labor savings, energy consumption, and workers’ safety are all factors that are affected, for better or worse, by the scrap handling system.
Thanks to its unique design, the Superbelt® conveyor gives aluminum foundries the advantage and flexibility over fork trucks, rubber belts, and apron conveyors, in transporting manufacturing scraps (sprues, gating, risers, casting trim, rejects).
It is generally used for feeding balers, shredders, and remelt furnaces, or for transporting the scrap from the die-casting process to the scrapyard.
