Custom Solutions for the Industry
Polyurethane Suction Pad
Used for loading machinery in creating a vacuum seal for packaging machinery. Polyurethane provides excellent suction and durability.
Polyurethane Rollers
Polyurethane re-coating of an Idle roller for a NZ industrial products manufacturer, in our specially equipped plant, capable of handling these 1.4 m long rollers.
Waste Management Cams
Polyurethane cam for Waste Management for waste sorting. This is a replacement part for an existing machine to provide more durability.
Timber J Bars
These ‘J bars’ are a proprietary LEP Engineering Plastics product which we supply to NZ’s largest timber mills. Designed and manufactured from polyurethane to be strong enough to convey timber but soft enough to minimise damage.
Polyurethane Conveyor Parts
Proprietary LEP Engineering Plastics polyurethane Conveyor Pads for the timber industry. They provide grip without damaging the wood.
Conveyor Roller
Conveyor support roller, made from polyurethane to provide cushioning.
Shute/Trough Liner
UHMWPE Tivar 88 auger trough liner provides reduce wear and friction, minimising the adhesion of conveyed materials. It also reduces noise and energy costs.
Electrical Conductor Transit System Parts
By providing lower cost polyurethane moulds LEP were able to replace rubber over-moulds with harder wearing polyurethane.
Chain Drive Sprockets
LEP manufactures chain drive sprockets for a wide variety of machinery and industries, particularly in extreme temperature or wet environments – such as wool scourers, skin washing machinery and within freezing works.
Polyurethane Drive Rollers
LEP manufactures polyurethane drive rollers which are used in every manufacturing industry – in hoists, forklifts, spindle-moulding machinery, and word-working machinery. LEP has the capability to machine metals and plastics.
