Conti introduces energy-saving conveyors

ERJ staff report (DS)

Hanover, Germany - ContiTech says it has introduced conveyor systems which offer substantial energy savings over more conventional systems.

At the Bauma show in Munich the ContiTech Conveyor Belt Group will be presenting a conveyor belt with an energy-optimised cover that can reduce the amount of energy a conveyor belt system consumes by up to 20 percent.

Another topic of discussion is that of generating energy during downhill transport. It makes systems more economical and reduces the environmental impact.

"These days technical solutions alone no longer spell market success," says Hans-Jürgen Duensing, head of the ContiTech Conveyor Belt Group. “That's why we keep an eye on providing for sustainable operation in all our developments. Our conveyor belt solutions can help to eliminate large quantities of CO2."
