Plate Mill Cooling Bed Rollers

Our Allor-Plesh patented Grate Plate Saver® offers a simple, cost-effective solution to cooling bed problems such as plate bottom
side damage, plate edge damage, excessive grate wear – and high maintenance and repair costs. Grate Plate Saver is an insert system designed specifically for plate mills with grate type cooling beds.

Grate Plate Saver system features a precision manufactured assembly designed to insert into existing cooling bed grates, allowing standard grates to be adapted with rollers. In most cases, there is no modification required to the existing cooling bed grates.

Distinct advantages:

Higher product quality – scratch-free plates. With the Grate Plate Saver system, rollers support the plate as it transfers across the cooling bed grates, eliminating plate contact with the grates. Also edge damage to plates is reduced.

Reduced operating costs – lower maintenance and wear. The
supporting rollers of the Grate Plate Saver prevent the plate from contacting the grate and totally eliminating grate wear. The rolling
friction required to transfer the plates is lower than with current systems, significantly reducing transfer chain wear.

Lowest intial investment – utilize existing equipment. Grate Plate Saver
is an extremely cost-effective solution compared to other systems
utilitzed by some plate mills to correct problems with cooling bed grates.

Low initial cost and no extended installation downtime!
