AFOR Systems, Inc. is proud to offer the
MARS™
- Metal Automated Removal
System. A proven, patented system that automatically
removes all types of tramp metal from conveyors
without stopping the belt! |
  |
|
 |
| |
|
The
MARS™
is a rugged, state-of-the-art machine that mounts on the conveyor (at
practically any location) downstream from a metal detector. When the
detector senses tramp metal in the bulk material on the belt, it sends
a signal to the MARS™.
When the metal reaches the
MARS™, the
MARS™ automatically
lowers its angled plow blade to flatten the belt and divert the
metal, along with a small amount of material, off the conveyor. Once
the tramp metal is discharged, the MARS™
raises its plow blade to allow for normal material flow.
The entire process takes only seconds! |

Why take a chance with tramp metal? |
| Magnets attract
only ferrous (that is, iron or steel) metal. And even on ferrous, are not
100% effective (due to belt speed, burden depth, orientation of the metal,
etc.). Magnets offer a good first line of defense, but they don't offer
total protection. |

|
Why live with the downtime caused by metal detector belt stops (and
take a chance with tramp metal)? |
|
Metal detectors can identify
all types
of metal (ferrous and non-ferrous), but they can't remove it; they can only
stop the belt for someone to remove the metal manually. But this stops
production, and still leaves expensive processing equipment vulnerable to
human error. (Not to mention the stress on belts and motors from these
intermittent stops; and safety issues regarding this practice!). |
