| Product application | ESP Dust Suppression Impact bed Skirtboard Sealing System |
| Width of belt | 2000mm |
| Industry | Coal Power-fire plant |
| Material | Coal |
Question
- Dust problems which adversely affect not only the conveying process , but also the people and the surroundings
- Add to corrosion of your structure, more grit and sludge clogging up belt scrapers
- Corrosive rust present and damaging idler frames.
- Customer wanted to increase the safety aspect by limiting dust and spillage from one of its principal conveyors, engineers wanted to reduce airborne particles and eliminate a potential source of trips and falls.
Serious material spillage

Serious material spillage
Solution
After conducting assessment of the system, Jimway technicians drafted a total solution plan to improve the coal conveying, the plant agreed to upgrade the transfer points loading conveyors.Installation crews from Jimway Services performed the project. On one conveyors, the work included installation of a Jimway Skirtboard Sealing System, Impact Bed, Jimway ESP Dust Suppression.
1. ESP Dust Suppression：Waterless, removing airborne dust 99%
2. Impact bed ：Better absorb the force of the falling material and protect the belt and structure
3. Skirtboard Sealing System：Employs two wear surfaces on a single elastomer sealing strip installed along the bottom of the skirtboard in the loading zone.

Result
- Following installation, fugitive material was significantly reduced and spillage no longer blocks access to the area. The air around the transfer point and throughout the tower is much clearer. “
Savings in cleanup time
The air around the transfer point and throughout the tower is much clearer.
Fugitive material was significantly reduced
Feedback
The improvement was immediate."We no longer need to allocate staff for cleaning during scheduled shutdowns,” said an operational manager.“We're very happy with the work done by JIMWAY .”
