Mining and processing minerals operations can generate large amounts of dust as it is processed into a marketable commodity, potentially exposing workers to elevated levels of airborne dust. In particular, the load zone on a conveyor system sees high levels of dust as the material conveyed is transferred from one belt to the other. A system that encloses the load zone is the only effective way to eliminate the environmental and safety hazards fugitive dust creates.
Flexco's Enclosed Skirting System is a simple dust suppression solution that does not require complicated measuring, engineering or maintenance. The standard skirting assemblies with adjustable mounting arrangements provide universal mounting and easy installation that enables you to protect as little or as much of the conveyor as you need at a much lower cost. If the standard offering does not suit your application, it can be easily custom engineered with varying material types to fit the application and job requirements.

Immediate reduction in spillage, preventing 300 hours of lost production and $60,000 on cleanup expenditures annually. Nearly all the airborne dust has been eliminated and the area is now safe for workers to enter without a dusk mask.
