Olympus Cold Feed Bins: Maximizing Productivity

Olympus cold feed bin systems are ruggedly built to perform dependably in harsh environments. Our 1-4 bin systems are trailer mounted with ABS and air brakes, for a safe haul between jobsites. Troughed belts and idlers provide exceptional material containment. Our vulcanized belts provide greater strength, reduced carry back, and increased longevity. Intuitive Danfoss controls are easy to operate. Bin-gate openings and belt speeds are electronically controlled from the operator station. Material density input allows for accurate mix designs. The heavy-duty hopper bins are made of 1/4″ steel and properly pitched to ensure good material flow to the belt. Belt skirts are extra thick and well supported, for improved material retention. Removeable safety guards protect operators from nip points.

Customizable options: Each customer’s application is different. Our sales engineer will help customize your CFBs and surge bins to meet your requirements. For heavy, dense materials such as RCC and rock, we use high-impact rollers, high CEMA rated idlers, extra thick conveyor belts and heavier belt skirts for maximum wear resistance. Backstops are added to our gearboxes for longer and steeper pitched conveyors, preventing the belts from rolling backward when at idle. Roller guides and trainers help maintain proper belt alignment. The addition of a snub pulley increases belt friction and torque. For harsh environments with heavy loads, Olympus recommends our wrap-drive, which maximizes belt-to-roller contact and torque. Mine grade bearings and pulleys add strength and rigidity, decreasing down time. A discharge conveyor is available.

Built by Pros for Experts, Olympus’ production teams bring you three generations of manufacturing expertise. Olympus CFBs are designed by a top team of professional engineers and constructed by 30+ skilled craftsmen, welders, and electricians, who take great pride in their workmanship, building exceptional machines. We take your feedback seriously, make incremental improvements and constantly improving our bin systems.

Reliable, field-serviceable, easy to operate

Reliable: Olympus Cold Feed Bin Systems are ruggedly designed to handle material conveyance applications across many industries. Engineering designed the Olympus CFB to withstand the harsh conditions of mining quarries and remote job sites over bumpy roads. Olympus incorporates reinforced I-beams, heavy steel gussets, quality hardware, high-quality welds, and properly fastened hardware. Customers include Phillips & Jordan Inc. (Florida dam projects), Velox Industries (oil well, fracking projects), and Quikrete Companies.

Field serviceable: Olympus cold feed bin systems are built without complexity, for ease of use. Our OEM partners are top-tier, reliable and readily sourced for improved field serviceability. Belt adjusters are positioned for easy access. Safety guards can be quickly removed and reinstalled. Belt trainers help prevent belt misalignment. A bolt tensioning wrench is bolted on deck, for operator convenience. Greasing points are centralized and labeled, with high quality hydraulic hoses used for greasing.

Easy to Operate: Olympus bin systems utilize Danfoss controls that are intuitive, user-friendly, and easy to operate. Nothing’s worse than a complicated PLC that no one understands or knows how to use. Olympus uses tactile control knobs and buttons that are large enough to be operated with gloves. Production and dosing controls are easy to navigate on the Danfoss controller. Support personnel will walk you through it, and a video is available to guide you.

Cold Feed Bin Features

Olympus Cold Feed Bins incorporate standard features that improve material handling performance and operating efficiency. Troughed belting provides better material movement, less friction, and significantly reduced wear and tear on your belts. Olympus belts are vulcanized and seamless, reducing material stick-to-itiveness, improving scraper performance, reducing the buildup of sticky material on return rollers, and reducing material fall-off from the bottom side of the return belts. Steel plate fenders provide excellent tire protection. Danfoss controls are dependable and easy to use. Trailers include LED lighting and conspicuity tape, meet DOT requirements and the higher standards of the National Association of Trailer Mfgs. Safety placards, E-stops, and belt feeder guards are well positioned.

Optional Equipment

Olympus Cold Feed Bin Systems are not one-size-fits-all. We understand that every project and customer has different needs and preferences. That’s why we offer various design options and features to customize your cold feed bin system to your specifications. We’ll help you select options that best suits your requirements.
