The History of The Frame Tamer System

We appreciate your interest in our product, The Frame Tamer.

Ed Gibson developed and patented (# 6,112,875) The Frame Tamer system. In 1999 set up The Dean Company Inc. for marketing and manufacturing of the The Frame Tamer ( Made in the U.S.A.).

The expense of replacing deteriorating conveyor systems is astronomical. Ed Gibson owner of The Dean Company Inc. has developed The Frame Tamer as a means of correcting the distortion caused by years of wear on your existing conveyor frames. Correcting this distortion eliminates your need to replace the entire conveyor system for several years.

After years of use the side frame of your conveyor will start to wear. As you know, this will result in various problems ranging from noise control, to belt tracking problems, stress on the drives and photo eye alignment issues. Currently, the typical plant manager has only one option for addressing these issues. If he does not want to replace the entire conveyor system, he replaces expensive conveyor components. Generally, these solutions do not correct the issue without eventually replacing the entire system.

 

After 20 years in the Material Handling industry, The Dean Company has found that one common problem for which is there was no cost effective solution is the wear of side frames which result in mis-aligned rollers, mis-aligned belt and/or padded chain tracking,mis-aligned photo eyes, undo wear on drive units, as well as noise control issues.

Plus the Hidden Cost of running a conveyor system (Air, Utilities, & Replacement parts & Time down on your System.)

The Frame Tamer is a preventative maintenance solution which can correct the above mentioned issues for a fraction of the cost of the typical industry solutions. This is accomplished by extending the life of your present system instead of replacing sections, or all of the system. Not only is The Frame Tamer an inexpensive alternative, but it also requires minimal downtime to your facility for installation.
