Flexco Introduces the 3-Roll Pneumatic Tracker

Flexco recently announced the addition of the 3-Roll Pneumatic Tracker to its line of Light-Duty Trackers. The 3-Roll Pneumatic Tracker is a precision engineered pneumatic belt tracker designed specifically for active, continuous belt alignment in Light-Duty applications. By utilizing a belt detection system with strategically positioned paddles, the tracker monitors alignment in real-time and automatically corrects belt drift.

"Belt mistracking is one of the most persistent challenges in food processing and parcel handling operations," said Flexco Product Specialist Jake Rizzo. "When belts shift off the centerline during normal operation, it leads to belt wear, structural damage, excessive downtime, and expensive repair labor. The Flexco 3-Roll Pneumatic Tracker limits these problems by working continuously to keep your belt aligned. The moment the belt moves too far off the centerline and actuates a paddle, the rollers automatically pivot to gently guide the belt back to center position. This continuous monitoring and correction prevents small tracking issues from becoming major problems that cause downtime and damage." 

The 3-Roll Pneumatic Tracker features an easy installation process and washdown-rated stainless steel construction, making it ideal for environments with strict hygiene requirements.Three rollers form a wider wrap angle for stronger belt contact, while a bi-directional pneumatic cylinder narrows the tracking window to keep the belt tightly centered. This proactive approach transforms conveyor reliability by addressing tracking issues before they impact throughput. The 3-Roll Pneumatic Tracker is ideal for use in parcel handling, food processing, and other Light-Duty applications where belt mistracking creates operational challenges.
