As outlined by Waste Advantage Magazine in the article “Sustaining Operations: The Comprehensive Guide to Conveyor Maintenance”, conveyors are a critical component in the recycling and waste conversion industries, facilitating the efficient movement of materials through every stage of the process. From sorting and separation to transportation and disposal, these systems enable streamlined, automated workflows.

Despite their essential role, conveyors in waste-handling environments face significant operational stress. Continuous 24/7 operation combined with exposure to dust, debris, and abrasive materials can accelerate wear and tear on belts, bearings, rollers, and other components. Without regular maintenance, these systems are vulnerable to unexpected breakdowns, increased energy consumption, and safety hazards.
