CPS Composite Bulk Changeout Strategy Reduces Tonnes Lost by over 75%
Posted at Noviembre 08, 2022
In 2020, a client in Western Australia contracted CPS to assess the situation of their steel rollers and implement a strategy to solve the increased downtime and idler failures that the site was experiencing. Upon evaluation, the CPS team suggested implementing a composite bulk changeout—installing a total of 4,561 Yeloroll HD carry rollers, 344 Polyurethane Sleeve Impact rollers, and 880 Polyurethane Ring Returns.
After 18 months, and with the bulk changeout strategy completed, roller failures are less than a quarter of what they were from 2016 to 2019, and tonnes lost have dropped to only 35,000 tonnes, down from 177,000, significantly increasing site productivity and reducing downtime due to roller changeouts.
