Conveyors are the veins of an assembly line as they bring materials from one part of the production process to the next necessary step. If a conveyor breaks down then, more often than not, the line must be stopped and the whole system is shut down. For many companies this means downtime that they cannot afford, because every minute you are not producing is revenue lost.

Conveyor Repair

Here is a brief list of some of the more popular types of conveyors we are called upon to fix. Please note, that our expertise goes far beyond these types of material handling machines.

Gravity Roller Conveyor Repair

The angle of decent and the speed at which the material hits the conveyor is essential for gravity operated line productivity. A change in either of these can make the system inoperable. We will perform a full inspection to prevent it from needing repairs in the future.

Skate and Wheel Conveyor Repair

Skate and wheel is an excellent system as it can allow for more versatility in creating a customized pathway. The difficulty is that if one wheel becomes stuck, then material can be immobilized, turned, or even propelled off the line. We can make quick repairs or adjustments and look at the rest of the track to see if other aspects are showing signs of damage.

Auger Conveyor Repairs

The most common problems we come across with auger conveyor system, also known as a screw conveyor, is either because of a system lock or motor breakdown. A system lock happens due to wear and tear of the auger’s thread, leading to materials getting caught between the thread and the chamber walls. A motor can need repairs for a number of reasons. If you find that the screw is turning too slowly, your energy bill has risen sharply, or the machine has just stopped, then call on the Industrial Maintenance Services, Inc.

Chip Conveyor Repair

Horizontal or vertical chip conveyors are designed to bring many small materials, usually in batches, to the desired location. The common issues that arise are from the motor or the belt itself. The belt is precisely adjusted to the track it follows but overtime a slight shift can lead to the belt catching and stalling. We are equipped with tools that can measure the needed adjustments down to the finest detail.
