DURASURF STS CONVEYER BED LINERS

Conveyor systems operate around the clock and are often among the largest consumers of energy in industrial operations.

While many companies focus on optimizing motors and drive systems, a significant portion of power loss is actually caused by friction beneath the conveyor belt.

DuraSurf STS dramatically reduces this friction, enabling energy savings of up to 30% on conveyor motor power consumption. At the same time, it reduces wear and maintenance costs. All without requiring major modifications to your existing conveyor system.

THE HIDDEN PROBLEM WITH TRADITIONAL CONVEYER BEDS

In many conveyor systems, the belt continuously slides over a steel slider bed. This constant friction creates significant resistance within the system, often without being noticed. As installations age or operate under heavier loads, both energy consumption and component wear increase rapidly.

Common signs of excessive conveyor bed friction include:

  • Higher electricity consumption by conveyor motors
  • Accelerated wear of conveyor belts
  • Increased load on bearings and drive systems
  • Rising maintenance costs
  • More unplanned downtime
  • Excessive noise and vibration during operation

 

For distribution centers, manufacturing facilities, and logistics operations, these costs can become substantial on an annual basis. In systems where conveyors run continuously, even small increases in friction have a direct and measurable impact on overall energy consumption.

DURASURF STS: THE SMART SOLUTION FOR ENERGY SAVINGS AND REDUCED WEAR

DuraSurf STS conveyor bed liners are specifically engineered to drastically reduce friction between the conveyor belt and the slider bed. The liners are installed directly beneath the belt on the conveyor bed, creating an ultra-smooth sliding surface.

This allows the belt to move more efficiently, reduces the load on the motor, and immediately lowers stress on the entire conveyor system.

The benefits are immediately noticeable:

  • Up to 30% reduction in energy consumption
  • Reduced wear on conveyor belts and system components
  • Lower maintenance costs
  • Extended service life of conveyor systems
  • Less noise and heat generation

 

For companies looking to reduce operational costs while improving sustainability, DuraSurf STS offers a highly effective retrofit solution for existing conveyor installations.

ADVANCED MATERIAL COMPOSITION FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE

The performance of DuraSurf STS is driven by its unique material composition. The liners are manufactured from high-grade UHMW-PE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene), an engineered polymer renowned for its exceptionally low coefficient of friction and outstanding wear resistance.

UHMW-PE is widely used in industrial environments where heavy loads, continuous movement, and minimal resistance are critical to operational performance.

Key advantages of UHMW-PE include:

  • Extremely low friction properties
  • Exceptional wear resistance
  • High impact strength
  • Self-lubricating characteristics
  • Excellent chemical resistance
  • Long service life under heavy-duty operating conditions

 

DuraSurf STS combines these material benefits with a specially treated surface that further reduces sliding resistance. The result is an ultra low-friction conveyor liner that significantly outperforms traditional steel conveyor beds in both efficiency and durability.

EASY INSTALLATION ON EXISTING CONVEYOR SYSTEMS

One of the key advantages of DuraSurf STS conveyor bed liners is their fast and straightforward installation. Thanks to the unique self-adhesive backing, the liners can be applied directly onto existing conveyor beds.

This makes DuraSurf STS an ideal retrofit solution for existing conveyor installations.

Installation requires:

  • No complex system modifications
  • No welding or mechanical fasteners
  • No replacement of complete conveyor systems
  • Minimal disruption to production processes

 

In many cases, the liners can be installed during scheduled maintenance periods, keeping operational downtime to an absolute minimum.

REDUCED MAINTENANCE AND LOWER OPERATING COSTS

By significantly reducing friction, DuraSurf STS lowers the load on the entire conveyor system. This directly results in reduced maintenance costs and less frequent replacement of wear-sensitive components.

Companies benefit from:

  • Reduced conveyor belt replacement
  • Lower stress on motors and drive systems
  • Fewer maintenance intervals
  • Less unplanned downtime
  • Lower total cost of ownership

 

In addition, the ultra-smooth surface contributes to quieter conveyor operation and a more efficient product flow throughout the system.
