New Momentum for the Cold Splicing of Textile Conveyor Belts

With its electrically driven, dual action roller, the REMAPRESS EDR, REMA TIP TOP facilitates absolutely even rolling with optimum pressure and a significant reduction in physical effort. The innovative drive concept greatly simplifies the cold splicing of conveyor belts.

When it comes to conveyor belt systems, the range of products offered by REMA TIP TOP represents highest quality in production, service, maintenance and repair. The traditional company, with over 90 years of industry experience, is once again demonstrating its innovative ability. The REMAPRESS EDR (Electric Driven Roller) is on show at bauma, the world's leading exhibition for construction, building materials and mining machines and construction vehicles. The electrically driven roller is the latest development of the tried and tested dual action roller, which has been in use for decades. In practice, this roller already offers a long service life and user friendliness, and greatly simplifies work on conveyor splicing points. REMAPRESS EDR is now setting new standards in terms of ergonomy and quality.

Consistent quality, every time

This new roller, with its IP 54 electric drive and angular gear motor, also benefits the user, by significantly reducing the amount of physical effort required for its operation. Defined results, reproducible every time, are also guaranteed – and fluctuations in quality due to human error are practically excluded thanks to the motorisation. An even speed during forward and reverse operation and constant contact pressure across the entire splicing surface produce homogeneous bonding at every splicing point. For this purpose, a contact pressure can be specified using a torque wrench, just like the classic manually driven roller, the REMAPRESS MDR. 

The roller is equipped with a rocker switch for simple handling during forward and reverse operation. The hand grips slide along the aluminium profile and help guarantee continuous ergonomic working, even during longer operating periods. Smooth-running pressure rollers with a needle bearing and a drive roller with profiling guarantee even running and prevent slip. All rollers are treated with a galvanic zinc coating and the power supply unit is housed in a protective plastic box. All rollers are supplied with an operator manual in the language of the country of operation and are delivered in a shockproof carrying case.

Presentation at bauma

Interested individuals and companies can experience the REMAPRESS EDR electrically driven roller and the REMAPRESS MDR manual roller at bauma in person right now: The roller press is demonstrated in a practical application on the REMA TIP TOP stand (Hall B2, Stand 437). The leading trade fair for the construction machinery sector is taking place until 17th April at the Munich Exhibition Centre. The REMAPRESS EDR (patent-pending) will be offered in three different sizes for belt widths ranging from 1,200 to 2,000 mm. It is available immediately.
