As highlighted by Waste Advantage Magazine in their article “Sustaining Operations: The Comprehensive Guide to Conveyor Maintenance”, conveyors are the backbone of recycling and waste conversion facilities. They keep materials moving through sorting, separation, and disposal processes, but their constant exposure to dust, debris, and abrasive materials makes maintenance essential. Without a robust strategy, conveyors face higher risks of downtime, costly repairs, and safety issues.

Key maintenance practices include scheduled inspections, lubrication, belt tracking, cleaning, staff training, and maintaining a spare parts inventory. Proactive attention extends component lifespans, increases system reliability, and improves operational efficiency.
