Caljan Rite-Hite US | News | 2009 | CurveTrack Handles Heavy International Load

Denver - October 13, 2009 - Caljan Rite-Hite (www.caljanritehiteus.com), is a world leading manufacturer of advanced material handling solutions for the loading and unloading of loose loaded cargo. Caljan (pronounced Cal-Yan) Rite-Hite has a long and global history of providing safe logistic applications for over 45 years.

Recognized as a forerunner in logistic solutions, Caljan Rite-Hite has earned the reputation as a true global leader. The busy Frankfurt Airport in Germany, relies on the Caljan Rite-Hite's CurveTrack power belt curve conveyor as part of their network of baggage handling conveyors.

According to Cristoph Sturm, Project Manager with the Frankfurt Airport operating company, Fraport AG, the CurveTrack power belt curve holds up to some heavy use. Handling 40 million pieces of baggage annually, the Frankfurt Airport baggage system must be operative 24/7 and the CurveTrack conveyor is a vital component in that system.

Reliability is just one benefit the Caljan Rite-Hite CurveTrack conveyor offers. The one-piece belt retainers used in the CurveTrack conveyor lock the belt firmly into place during operations, and keeps its movement precise and uniform, even at high speeds.

Ease of service and installation of parts make the CurveTrack an integral part of any system. These points as well as easy integration into existing systems have been driving elements in the CurveTrack design.

Changing essential parts on the CurveTrack is easier than other conveyor systems. The belt itself can be replaced extremely quickly, reducing down-time to just a few minutes.

"Caljan Rite-Hite's commitment to innovative, safe and robust solutions is a unique global collaboration," says Mark Rehder, VP/GM of Caljan Rite-Hite, US. "We have always been committed to ensuring that our manufactured products and installed solutions meet our customer’s many demanding application conditions. Consistency is something our customers can rely on."

With the challenges of a global economy, Caljan Rite-Hite's first and foremost mission is to provide a safe and logical solution for moving parcels, whether it's baggage handling or material handling applications. Caljan Rite-Hite continues to be a preferred supplier to organizations concerned with efficiencies, reliability, and reducing down-time while handling the heavy load.
