Belt conveyor covers

IDM

Galleries for new or existing belt conveyors
For several years now, IDM has extended its range of belt conveyors with Tubbo covers that can be adapted to all types of belt conveyors. They bring a real comfort for the operating as well as for the skiers. The universal cover can be installed on any belt conveyor, whatever its manufacturer, width or length.

For a brand new installation including a TUSA belt conveyor and a gallery, the interface between the two has been specifically designed to make the assembly easier. To meet the demand for covers on existing belts, we have a gallery with a frame that is independent from the belt.
