Conveyor Belt Alignment: Tri-Return Training Idler
Self-adjusting 3-idler design centers conveyor belt
automatically, preventing belt damage and spillage due to
misalignment.
Misaligned conveyor belts can wear the edge of your belting
and damage your conveyor structure. Misalignment is also a
major cause of material spillage, which decreases the life of
your idlers, increases overhead due to cleanup cost, and is a
serious safety issue.
The Tri-Return Training Idler uses a patented concave
arrangement of three idler rolls on a center pivot to keep
your belt in line. The center roll is horizontal and the two
outer rolls are mounted at a descending angle. This roll
arrangement allows the trainer to fit the full cup of the
belt.
Patented Concave
Idler Design
The Tri-Return's idler rolls are mounted on a steel frame with
a central pivot point and guidlers on either side, enabling
the Tri-Return to conform to the natural cup of the belt --
contacting the entire width of the belt.

TRI-Return Training Idler
Outperforms Any Other Training Idler
The Tri-Return is unique because it uses 3 idler rolls instead
of the usual single roll, allowing the Tri-Return to
automatically center your belt. The Tri-Return literally beats
other idlers coming and going because it works on reversing
belts; most other idlers don't.
And, where the Tri-Return Training Idler prevents
misalignment automatically, other idlers may just complicate
your alignment problem:
- Manually adjusted trainers just create more work
for you. The trainer isn't doing the job -- you are.
- Overly complex designs, such as fulcrum and lever
action-type trainers, aren't simple to install and
maintain.
- "Set and Forget" style trainers can
cause problems in the future, because a one-time setting
doesn't allow for changes in your conveyor as it ages (due
to belt replacement, idler and pulley failures, and so
on).

Wyatt Alignment Disks
An easy and inexpensive way to contain
lightweight conveyor belts.
Lightweight belts can be difficult to keep
contained. Wind gusts and off-centered surge-loading are two
examples of the problems that can cause temporary belt
misalignment. Wyatt Alignment Disks are an inexpensive
solution and are easy to install.
-
Cannot damage belt
due to polyurethane construction.
-
Very easy to
install because disks mount to your existing idler
rollers. Disks can be mounted on both the carry and return
idlers.
-
Eliminates
conveyor belt damage caused by misalignment.
-
Low maintenance.
