Conveyor Belt Scrapers
Carry back is the leading cause of inefficiencies in conveyor systems, regardless of the length of the conveyor line or rate of belt speed. Carryback can increase dust pollution for the environment and create conveyor roller and conveyor belt damage. The manual task of removing carry back is both resource and equipment intensive.
Optimal site availability and productivity relies on keeping conveyor belts moving constantly, efficiently and with minimal shutdowns.
Material carry back is commonly referred to as any excess fugitive material that sticks to the underside of the return belt beyond the discharge point at the head pulley. Fugitive material has the potential to bury idlers, conveyor components, or structural supports, requiring expensive clean-up labour and replacement parts.
Conveyor Primary & Secondary Belt Cleaners serve a vital role in keeping conveyor belts running smoothly and efficiently plus a host of other advantages:
- Carry back reduction.
- Extends service life of belt.
- Reduces cleaning up costs and maintenance issues.
- Improves overall site performance, safety and environmental impacts.
