TS Global is a conveyor specialist and understands the frustrations of material wastage. This is where the skirting system shines.
TGraham Holford, director of S Global, believes that it is essential to be a specialist in the industry of conveyor services. He said that product knowledge is crucial.Australian MiningIn a February feature.
The conveyor service industry has evolved into an area with a lot more generalists. Many of these companies are either belt-manufacturing companies or belt-splicing businesses that do a lot mechanical work.
TS Global is a prime example. TS Global has made itself a master in conveyor components and has a deep understanding of the intricacies.
Peter Noor, TS Globals New South Wales Sales Engineer, believes that being a specialist will not only ensure that a customer receives the best service but can also have valuable downstream effects.
He said that being a specialist is important because it allows one to understand the systems and get intimate knowledge of how equipment works. AustralianMining.
You get longer wear-life for components when you take care of all the fine details of tuning a system.
Equipment that works as it should, doesn’t have potential failures or issues. This can lead to belt damage or equipment damage that can be very costly.
TS Global’s core service offering to the mining sector is its market-leading skirting system. These systems are designed to prevent material from spillage and dust control around the tail end.
Conveyors are used in many different mining applications. They can travel long distances and work in different environments. It is important that skirting systems can be customized to suit the needs of each user.
Noor stated that when you’re trying to make a skirting system to fit a conveyor, it is not always going to look the same.
Every conveyor will have different dimensions. Always consider the purpose of the conveyor, the time it was built, and the limitations that were encountered when building the conveyor.
All of this will influence how your skirting system looks.
TS Global offers skirting systems for underground or above-ground environments. These systems can be fitted to existing conveyors or made as part of a new conveyor. Depending on the environment, and the wear risks involved, the company offers stainless steel and polyurethane options.
As TS Global continues to expand its product range, it has developed secondary seals that offer a safety net to primary skirting systems. These seals are especially popular in the mining sector, Noor stated.
The skirting is made from polyurethane and bolts to the back. He said that the poly skirting is made of a soft poly material with exceptional elasticity.
This allows it to ride on the belt. If the belt is moving, it will follow the contour of the belt. The soft secondary seal will capture any material that finds its way under the skirt.
This product is recommended when there is spillage or accelerated wear to traditional rubber skirt material.
TS Global can provide an end-to-end service that includes design, manufacture, installation, and ongoing maintenance.
TS Global begins with measuring on-site and inspecting every aspect the skirting system. Anything that could have an impact on the system is taken into consideration. This includes material being carried, how it is being presented by the incoming conveyor and belt speed. Noor.
The next step is the design phase. Here we create a design that is as cohesive as possible.
TS Global then drafts a skirting system based upon real-life measurements and obtains approvals. The company then moves on to the manufacturing stage after receiving any feedback or modifications from the client.
Once a skirting is manufactured and installed by TS Global, TS Global is available to assist with any questions or concerns.
We make sure our client relationships are intimate and provide service throughout the entire process. Noor explained that if a part is installed and there are problems, we will adjust the design or go on site to fix it.
We make sure that our clients are happy and satisfied throughout the process.
