Developed technical solutions

Each solution addresses a specific technical problem, with documented approaches and applications.

Pulley and drum refurbishment

Technical specifications

Refurbishment by polyurethane coating of pulleys in diamond-wire drive and guidance systems, protecting the metal surface against wear and increasing the grip of the wire.

Technical challenges

When the surfaces of the metal parts show wear caused by accidents or breakdowns, refurbishment is often still possible.

Applications

Cutting and processing equipment for stone, marble, granite, ceramics and other mineral materials.

Typical applications

No items found.

PU pulleys

Technical specifications

Pulleys manufactured in polyurethane (PU), designed for fitting to metal pulleys. Drive and guidance of diamond wire. Allow cuts with small radii. Combine high wear resistance of the pulley with a longer service life of the wire.

Technical challenges

High resistance to wear, abrasion and cutting, retaining dimensional stability in aggressive environments.

Applications

Cutting and processing equipment for stone, marble, granite, ceramics and other mineral materials.

Typical applications

No items found.

Profiles

Technical specifications

Profiles manufactured in polyurethane (PU), designed for fitting to large-diameter metal pulleys. Pulleys for the drive and guidance of diamond wire. Combine high wear resistance of the pulley with a longer service life of the wire.

Technical challenges

High resistance to wear, abrasion and cutting, retaining dimensional stability in aggressive environments.

Applications

Cutting and processing equipment for stone, marble, granite, ceramics and other mineral materials.

Typical applications

No items found.

Highly abrasion-resistant pipes and bends

Technical specifications

Components for conveying abrasive materials, designed to withstand the wear caused by the continuous passage of ore, sand, slurry and mineral particles.

Various configurations.

Technical challenges

Extremely high resistance to abrasion, impact, pressure and erosion, withstanding severe environments and continuous operation. Easy replacement during maintenance.

Applications

Suction systems and the conveying of minerals or other materials.

Typical applications

Membranes and diaphragms for mining and quarrying equipment

Technical specifications

Small and large components in rubber or FKM (Viton®), with or without reinforcing fabric; custom dimensions.

Technical challenges

Control, separate, drive and seal in environments contaminated by dust, slurry and chemicals, under fatigue, abrasion, pressure and temperature variations.

Applications

Pumps, valves, dosing systems, mineral-processing equipment and hydraulic and pneumatic installations.

Typical applications

No items found.

Bushes and silentblocks

Technical specifications

Mounts and dampers designed to limit the axial and radial displacement of equipment, reducing vibration and absorbing loads and impacts.

Technical challenges

High resistance to compression, impact, fatigue, abrasion, deformation and dynamic loads in highly demanding environments.

Applications

Vibrating screens, conveyors, drilling machines and other processing equipment.

Typical applications

No items found.

Scrapers and wear protection for high-wear components

Technical specifications

Protective and scraping components designed to remove accumulated material and protect mechanical components subject to extreme wear. Easy replacement during maintenance.

Technical challenges

Fitted as a sacrificial second layer, with high resistance to abrasion, impact, erosion and cutting, withstanding continuous contact with ore and highly aggressive materials.

Applications

Vibrating screens, feed screws, conveyors, drilling machines and other processing equipment.

Typical applications

No items found.
