Condition Monitoring Services

CBM has recently introduced the CB Guard Live X-Ray to its product arsenal.

The software has the capability of generating intelligen­t, holistic analysis of any kind of threat to a belt, including damage that is not visually identifiab­le such as broken or corroded cords; and irregulari­ties such as holes, bubbles, foreign objects and even insufficie­nt belt cleaning.

CB Guard software can identify, store and scan each individual splice, and any deviation would automatica­lly trigger an alarm, or even stop the belt

This means that through timely detection, the CB guard can prevent severe, costly accidents.

CBM’s steel cord scanning system was designed as a standalone system, but works as an integral part of a condition based monitoring system.

The system can detect steel cord, carcass damage, and splice irregulari­ties through non-destructiv­e testing.

The company’s fabric belt scanning system is also non-destructiv­e and can determine the belt’s palm print to give recommenda­tions for repairs that may need to be made.

CBM is an independen­t belt manufactur­er, and with nearly 40 years’ experience it is the world’s longest serving conveyor belt monitoring provider, servicing the mining industry since 1980.

Its reputation has been built on providing honest, expert advice through a comprehens­ive understand­ing of the harsh conditions faced by the people who work in the mining industry.
