Does material carryback contaminate your plant and damage the belt?
Material sticking to the belt on the return side causes continuous spillage, contaminates the floor and rollers, unbalances the load and causes localized wear. A proper scraping system eliminates the problem at source, reduces unplanned maintenance and extends belt life.
- Material spillage under the conveyor
- Cross-contamination in food industry
- Accumulation on return rollers causing vibration
- Premature belt wear from embedded material
- High periodic manual cleaning cost
Efficient cleaning, fewer stoppages and longer belt life
Belt scrapers are the most critical cleaning component in a conveyor system. Efficient scraping at the discharge zone removes adhered material before it reaches the return, preventing spillage, contamination and premature wear.
Available scraper types
- Primary scraper — installed at head pulley, removes 70–85% of material
- Secondary scraper — installed on return side, captures fine residue
- Urethane blades — high durability without damaging belt surface
- Tungsten carbide blades — maximum durability for abrasive materials
- Steel blades — for standard low-cost applications
- Manual and automatic tensioning systems for constant pressure
Urethane or tungsten carbide?
Urethane blades: Most common choice. High durability, do not damage splices or mechanical fasteners and are compatible with PVC, PU and rubber belts. Ideal for food, chemical and general manufacturing.
Tungsten carbide: For highly abrasive materials like mining, cement, aggregates and steel. Service life 5–10 times longer than steel blades but require belt in good condition.
Common applications
Mining and quarries: tungsten carbide for abrasive minerals with high load. Food industry: food-grade urethane without bacterial accumulation zones. Cement and aggregates: carbide for sticky, high-abrasion materials. Manufacturing and logistics: standard urethane for PVC and PU belts with mechanical splices.
