Tru-Trac, a global leader in conveyor belt solutions, is poised to captivate attendees at Electra Mining Africa with its latest range of belt trackers. These innovations stem from two years of rigorous design, development, and testing, according to Tru-Trac’s Chief Operating Officer, Shaun Blumberg. The new range promises enhanced performance and reliability, setting a new benchmark in effective belt alignment.
Blumberg emphasized the improvements: “We’ve introduced exciting enhancements to our belt trackers, bringing notable improvements in performance and reliability.” Tru-Trac, with a formidable reputation built over three decades, has extended its footprint across Africa and globally. Blumberg views Electra Mining Africa as a prime opportunity to engage with visitors from various African countries. He believes Tru-Trac can significantly contribute to efficient mining operations through improved conveyor system performance.
Blumberg stated, “We are excited to present our extensive range of conveyor components at our stand, offering a complete view of our innovative solutions. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore the design and functionality that contribute to our products’ success globally.”
A major attraction at the event will be Tru-Trac’s investment in Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Specifically, the integration of digital solutions facilitates predictive maintenance through real-time equipment monitoring. “The mining sector is increasingly turning to IoT to refine data collection and analytics, enhancing overall efficiency. Our IoT-enabled conveyor solutions offer predictive and preventative maintenance, reducing downtime and enhancing productivity,” Blumberg explained.
At Electra Mining Africa, Tru-Trac will showcase at least two products: their proven belt scales and a groundbreaking belt rip detection system. “Our belt scales have seen considerable success since their launch two years ago. These are critical components in any bulk materials handling operation, providing both accurate and repeatable data on throughput and production,” Blumberg said.
Tru-Trac’s collaboration with specialist design engineers has resulted in a best-in-class product range. This range now includes a digital reporting platform for remote monitoring and reporting. Customer feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, and significant interest is anticipated at Electra Mining Africa.
Blumberg highlighted, “Tru-Trac Rip Prevent+, our next-generation belt rip detection system, is set to impress and generate strong interest. This is a disruptive solution which we are launching in Africa with our partners, SHG of Germany. Using artificial intelligence to monitor power consumption for anomalies, this technology gives early warnings of potential belt rips, enabling operators to react swiftly and prevent damage.”
The new belt rip detection system, using advanced AI technology, identifies potential belt rips by monitoring power consumption anomalies. This early warning system allows operators to take swift action, preventing costly damage and downtime.
Tru-Trac’s presence at Electra Mining Africa highlights its commitment to innovation and efficiency in the mining sector. The company aims to enhance productivity and operational efficiency through its cutting-edge conveyor solutions. Visitors can expect to see firsthand how these innovative products can transform mining operations.
Blumberg concluded, “We are eager to showcase our new products and demonstrate how they can significantly improve mining operations. Our goal is to provide solutions that not only meet but exceed industry standards, ensuring our customers achieve optimal performance and efficiency.”
Tru-Trac’s extensive experience and dedication to quality make it a trusted partner for mining operations worldwide. The company’s new offerings at Electra Mining Africa are expected to draw considerable interest and set new standards in conveyor technology.
