Components · Load Zone & Impact Control

Control the point where conveyor damage begins.

Standard, adjustable, slider and dynamic-idler impact beds. Specified for belt width, speed, lump size, drop height, tonnage, trough angle, current issue and installation access.

02 / The problem

The load zone is where many conveyor problems begin.

Off-centre loading, unstable material impact, belt sag and poor containment create mistracking, spillage and damage that ripple downstream. Every component after the load point inherits those conditions.

What this looks like on site

  • 01Belt sag and impact damage
  • 02Off-centre loading
  • 03Transfer-point spillage
  • 04Mistracking after loading
  • 05Premature wear of downstream components

03 / Engineering logic

Three things to control at every load zone.

Tru-Trac specifies load-zone equipment around three control objectives, in sequence.

  • 01

    Absorb impact

    Energy-absorbing impact beds rated to the lump size, drop height and tonnage.

  • 02

    Support the belt

    Continuous support across the loading length removes belt sag and seals to skirting.

  • 03

    Improve sealing

    Belt support that the sealing system can do its job against — without it, no skirt holds.

04 / Product range

Product pathways.

Six pathways, selected by duty and access.

  • Standard duty

    Standard Impact Bed

    Conventional impact-bed designs for typical loading conditions and access.

  • Standard / heavy

    Adjustable Impact Bed

    Adjustable for varying belt widths, troughing angles and access constraints.

  • Heavy duty

    Slider Impact Bed

    Slider-bar configurations for heavy material and continuous support requirements.

  • Heavy / Severe duty (HD, EXHD)

    Dynamic Idler Impact Bed

    Dynamic idler arrangements for severe-duty loading and accelerated belt protection.

  • Specialist

    Slider Trough Frames

    Trough frame configurations matched to non-standard loading and transfer geometries.

05 / In the system

Where this family sits and what it has done in the field.

Each Tru-Trac component family maps to one or more Zones of Control. Where field results exist, the dominant outcome metric is shown.

Get the load zone right and the rest gets easier.

Send us the load condition: lump size, drop height, tonnage, trough angle and access. We'll specify the right impact-zone architecture.
