Spill edges

Spill edges, also known as spill barriers, are an essential component of conveyor belts when it comes to preventing product waste. These spill edges are placed along the length of the conveyor belt and serve as a barrier to prevent bulk materials, such as grains, stones, or powders, from falling off the belt. At LBS, we provide high-quality spill edges that maximize the efficiency of your transport process.

What are spill edges?

 

Spill edges are used to prevent products from spilling off the belt during transport. This is especially important when transporting loose materials that could otherwise be easily lost. By placing spill edges along the conveyor belt, the spillage rate is minimized. In addition, spill edges effectively guide the products during transport, making the process smoother and safer.

Our spill edges are available in various materials, such as plastic and rubber, and can be mounted on both PVC and rubber conveyor belts. Using spill edges not only helps to reduce product loss but also prevents damage to the conveyor belt, ensuring that delicate products remain unharmed.

Benefits of spill edges

 

One of the key benefits of spill edges is that they ensure the product moves at the same speed as the conveyor belt without coming into contact with a stationary edge. This prevents damage to the product and reduces the risk of wear on the belt. This is particularly important in sectors where delicate products are being transported, such as the food industry.

Additionally, spill edges are ideal for situations that require high speeds. By using spill edges, products are prevented from getting stuck at the seal, which significantly extends the life of the conveyor belt.

Our spill edges can be mounted in various ways, depending on the type of conveyor belt and the application. Spill edges are applied to PVC conveyor belts through fusion, while rubber spill edges are hot vulcanized for a durable attachment.
