Flexco says it will present the newly released FXC™ Steel Cord Belt Fastening System and the soon-to-be-released 900 Series Belt Cutter/Skiver at MINExpo 2024, in Las Vegas, in September, as part of a display covering the latest innovations in the world of belt conveyor solutions.
“MINExpo 2024 is an excellent opportunity for the mining industry to familiarise themselves with our FXC Steel Cord Belt Fastening System,” Flexco Product Manager, Franklin Moore, said. “A major issue that heavy-duty sites often deal with is reacting to unplanned downtime. Consequently, our team set out to develop a solution that could help; that led us to creating the FXC. Overall, the FXC allows users to get their steel cord belts back into operation quickly, drastically reducing the effects of downtime which helps increase the site’s bottom line. We’ve already seen positive results in the field, and we can’t wait to see what our peers have to say at the show.”
The Flexco booth will also feature the 900 Series Belt Cutter/Skiver.
Flexco Product Manager, Kevin Fales, said: “We’re excited to feature the 900 Series Belt Cutter/Skiver at this year’s MINExpo, as it will be the first time that many in the industry get a chance to see it in-person. With updated clamp knobs, a drive handle with manual and powered drill capabilities and a new design that allows operators to simply slide the belt forward from a cut to skive position, sites can unlock a more consistent, safe and quality mechanical belt fastening installation process with our latest belt maintenance tool. This will be a great chance for our industry partners to get a hands-on feel for its capabilities, and our team cannot wait to answer all our attendees’ questions.”
The FXC and the 900 Series will be among the tools that will be used in product demonstrations in the Flexco booth, alongside displays of other solutions like Flexco’s industry-leading mechanical belt fastening systems and the digital belt cleaner monitoring platform Flexco Elevate®.
