FXC steel cord belt fastening system slashes downtime

When a top-performing coal transport facility based out of the United States was faced with increasingly frustrating downtime incidents, the decision to find a solution went from a want to a need.

Each time a belt went down, repairs took maintenance teams a minimum of one day or more as they had to wait for a vulcanising crew to become available.

Furthermore, due to the physical nature of the material and how it was loaded and conveyed throughout the process, the belt was susceptible to catastrophic damage.

In turn, loading coal onto the boats for port transportation would continually be delayed, and downtime incidents were deeply affecting their profit margin.

Flexco provided the perfect solution with their FXC steel cord fastening system.
