Video Shows Brush Shaft Being Crushed with 5,000 lbs of Weight

10/18/2017

You’d think by now they would have figured how to replace brushes without damaging them.

APT actually has figured out a way to prevent the shaft of your brush from being crushed, but many shops still extract the old way, which puts them at risk for bending the shaft or damaging the bearing blocks and/or journal ends.
​

The brush extraction process developed years ago uses a crane to lower the brush into place. But you can see from this video that when the crane removes its support, 5000 pounds of weight are placed on only 5" of the shaft!
That’s too much pressure. So the shaft bends, and you have issues with the bearings, seals, and journal.

Now many people have gotten really good at repairing this, but there’s no way to get back the time and resources it takes to fix the problem. The best thing to do is AVOID the problem in the first place. And that’s where Atlantech Process can help.

At APT, our first priority is improving your brush machine processes. We want to optimize your line so your customers are happy and your competition is not. 

Our brush-change process lets your replace a wide-face, 2-ton brushin under 15 minutes. You need only one person to do it AND there's no risk of bending the shaft.
Look at this vidoe to see what I'm talking about. Remember when it used to take almost the whole day and two people to change a brush of this size? Not anymore ....
Advancements in design and material have really changed the game. And we want you to  get the benefits of APT’s innovative brushes and machines. 

We’ll even show you how to save money on buying, using, and disposing of chemicals so you can afford a new brush machine. Imagine how your productivity and outcomes will improve with a new machine!

Stop wasting time with frequent and repetitive maintenance work that is holding you back.
