Many of its design features were selected particularly for rugged mining and aggregate installations.

The basic configuration includes a fully welded mainframe, oversized bearings and unique corrosion protection features. The number of pressure rollers required depends on the sludge or slurry characteristics. Belt width is available in several increments up to 3m. Pneumatic belt tracking is featured and all models are designed for continuous, automatic operation.
