The global brands of Altra Industrial Motion will be out in full force in Las Vegas , showcasing a range of reliable power transmission components to meet the most demanding mining applications .
Altra heavy-duty clutches and brakes , engineered couplings , holdbacks and backstopping clutches , heavy-duty speed reducers , geared motors and belted drives provide exceptional performance on inclined , declined and overland conveyors , ball and SAG mills , crushers , sizers , shovels and draglines , and winders and hoists , according to the company .
While Altra products are used on a variety of mine equipment , particular focus will be on mine conveyor applications at the Altra booth .
“ Altra brands continue to keep inclined , declined and overland mine and quarry
conveyors running smoothly and safely around the world ,” the company said . “ These capabilities will be highlighted with actual products installed on two full-size conveyor pulley drives on our booth .”
Specific components on the drive displays will include a Stromag TDXB thruster brake and disc , a Svendborg Brakes BSFI 3000 caliper brake , HPU , SOBO controller and disc , a Stieber RDBK high-speed releasable backstop , a Marland BCMA low-speed backstop and Ameridrives gear coupling and hubs .
Other products to be showcased include the Stromag SAB drum brake , Twiflex VMS-DP and GMR caliper brakes and a Turning , Locking and Braking system .
Altra Industry ’ s “ 4.0 technologies ” are , the company says , empowering mine operators to significantly improve productivity . User benefits include real-time remote access and condition monitoring to optimise equipment reliability and service life while reducing the cost and time associated with maintenance .
Svendborg Brakes recently launched a multipurpose IIoT gateway designed to monitor environments , processes , or position ( s ) and connections to external sensors . The unit can transfer any data from various sources and interfaces through the LPWAN Narrowband IIoT , GPRS , Wi-Fi or Ethernet . Key information on braking operations and component status is collected , including system pressure , current state of the brake and its piston , brake fluid level and temperature .
Svendborg Brakes will also introduce a Universal Control Case ( UCCase ) at the event . The portable case is used as a tool for remote support and data visualisation during commissioning or service of brake systems , including all HPUs ( two-stage , on / off ) and all
