This belt fastening system is used extensively around the world. The system is the preferred choice in most southern African mining and materials handling operations such as the various Sasol Coal and other large collieries. Research and development has culminated in the local manufacture of a belt skiver, an important component in the fastening system. Mato Products is a Lloyds accredited ISO 9002 listed company. Stainless steel plate material and spring steel staple material are standard.
Different materials are available.
Manual, pneumatic and hydraulic lacing machines are available. Lacer frames are available in lengths of up to 2 metres. Belt is uniformly clamped by tightening the two tension screws. The belt clamps offer a very safe, reliable and easily installed system for pulling up slack in the conveyor belt so splicing can be carried out quickly and efficiently. The Belt Skiver accurately removes the top cover of a conveyor belt without damaging the carcass of the belt.
