October 13, 2021 - Automating the transportation and handling of scrap metal promotes process efficiency and plays a pivotal role in reducing the risk of worker injury, reducing maintenance time and increasing uptime. Endura-Veyor Inc., Aplena, Michigan, offers a full range of material handling and conveyance solutions designed for transporting metal products and machining scrap during and after fabrication processes.

The lineup of equipment ideal for metal fabrication applications ranges from steel belt, drag chain, fabric belt, z-style, magnetic conveyors and magnetic separators, all of which are made to endure. In addition to the equipment itself, a full range of options and accessories are available to further customize and create solutions that fit unique applications.

As the most diversified steel belt conveyor manufacturer, Endura-Veyor’s conveyance solutions handle a greater variety of scrap and other shredded metal materials more efficiently while excelling in harsh metal stamping, forming and fabrication environments. Steel Belt Conveyors are a staple in metal fabrication operations due to their durability and ability to handle wet or dry scrap material with great efficiency. Endura-Veyor’s heavy-duty Steel Belt Conveyors feature removable bottom pans, side access covers, abrasion resistant steel reinforcements and more.

The innovative Top Flight Drag Conveyor™ features chain-driven flights that push a high volume of sharp, loose, bulky and problematic materials with ease. This conveyor is equipped with an abrasion resistant, hardened steel trough or channel that contains loose materials and is less susceptible to jams, overloading, costly maintenance, and premature wear.

In environments with space limitations, Z-Conveyors provide ultimate versatility. Its rugged, modular construction makes the most efficient use of production and processing space and reduces transition points. The Z-Conveyor design features one continuous belt and can be customized and configured to meet specified needs.

When considering conveyor solutions for metal recycling it is important to also consider magnetic separators and conveyors that are engineered to “attract” materials even under the toughest metal handling conditions. Magnetic Slide Conveyors are available for applications that require products to be dropped on and then secured from the bottom surface. Alternatively, Overhead Magnets are available to lift products out of a stream of other materials from the top, firmly securing for further handling.

Endura-Veyor’s Magnetic Slide Conveyors are very reliable, low maintenance, customizable conveyance solutions. The magnets themselves are chain driven and have no external moving parts for added safety. They are a perfect fit for challenging ferrous applications such as machining chips and stamping scraps. Endura-Veyor’s heavy-duty strength magnets are custom fit for each application by optimizing the magnetic circuit and ultimately improving the production for many years.

The Debris Mitigator is an optional feature for many conveyor types. Fine, shredded materials can cause maintenance problems for conveyors and conveyor belts. This feature provides a way for material that migrates underneath the belt to exit through the frame, so it does not collect and build-up between the belt and the frame. The Debris Mitigator provides for a quick visual check of build-up and lowers the need for maintenance of cleaning under the belt and the frame, prolongs the life of the belt and reduces costly downtime. This valuable feature is also offered with attachable recapture trays so that fine materials and debris which migrate under the conveyor belt can be collected in a cleaner, more efficient way.

Endura-Veyor, Inc. has innovative conveyance solutions that increase performance, provide ways to reduce manual labor requirements and increase overall efficiency in metal stamping and metal fabrication by reducing maintenance, equipment jams, and downtime.
