Conveyor Belt Repair and Replacement

Conveyor systems do rigorous work, moving products at high speeds under intense physical or chemical duress. Even the best-designed conveyor belts need repairs and replacements, and these services must be completed efficiently and by trained professionals. When the need arises for break-fix services, MIR’s conveyor belting experts are ready to provide 24/7 repair and replacement for your facility.

What repair and replacement services does MIR provide?

If a belt at your facility shows signs of damage or has a complete breakdown, MIR’s conveyor belt technicians will provide break-fix services to ensure your facility has minimal downtime. Our team will efficiently install the new replacement belt and verify correct tracking, splicing and pulley placement on your application line in a timely manner.

In the case of minimal to moderate damage to a belt, our team can also conduct repairs with vulcanization, metal fasteners or cold curing. These are used as a temporary solution until a window of downtime for replacement, and only for non-food-grade processes. When our conveyor belt technicians arrive on site, they’ll recommend repair or replacement methods that will be most advantageous to your plant’s safety and reliability.
