System Components - Safe-Glide Chutes

The SafeGlide fiberglass spiral chute offers significant benefits over existing conventional design. Materials move through at a constant velocity because of the computer aided design. The possibility of breakdown is eliminated since there is no power source other than gravity and no moving parts. There is minimum cost involved with operation and maintenance. The low friction surface material has excellent sliding qualities which remain unaffected by unfavorable conditions such as high humidity. The chute can be utilized for accumulation as the surface material permits self-starting of product that has been stopped in the chute. The chute is very durable and the surface is extremely wear resistant thus ensuring longer life. The SafeGlide chute requires no supervision or controls. The unit is inexpensive and requires nominal time to install compared to alternatives.
