Problem Description:
This customer in Australia was originally dropping granite lumps 8 feet onto a 60° panel protected by a 5/8”-thick bisalloy plate. This plate was only lasting 5 days, requiring a shutdown to replace it weekly.
Resolution:
First, a solid 2” polyurethane wear panel was tested, which lasted 3 days.
Next, an Argonics dual durometer ceramic Redi-Liner panel was tested. This 12” x 12” x 4” panel was made up of a 63 Shore A durometer bottom with a 93 Shore A durometer top, with 1-1 ∕2” ceramic cubes. This panel has lasted 14 months.
