Impact Cradle MD & LD

Installed under a belt conveyor loading zone, the Martin® Impact Cradles absorb the force of falling material to prevent damage to the belt and structure. The impact cradles stabilize the belt line to prevent material escape.

Features and Benefits:

  • Metric Design The Martin® MD Impact Cradle and Martin® LD Impact Cradle are dimensionally adapted to metric conveyor systems and can be combined with European Martin® Slider Cradles and Martin® Trac-Mount™ Idlers.
  • Versatile Fits conveyors with trough angles from 10° to 45°. Upgrade from light to medium duty possible, due to its modular design.
  • Easy Maintenance 3-piece construction allows to remove outer parts easily to enable a simple and safe maintenance and repair work.
  • Engineered to Fit Your Conveyor Adjustment options for height (by using shims of different sizes) width (by slotted holes on the bottom side of the cross beams) and troughing angle eliminate the need for customisation for most applications.
  • Accommodates Most Belt Speeds Suitable for use with belts traveling up to 3.3 m/s. For belts traveling faster than 3.3 m/s Martin Engineering recommends using a Martin® High Speed Impact Cradle.
