What to Do When Scrapers Can't Be Used?

Certain conveyor belts — like cleated and chevron styles — don't clean well using traditional scrapers. In this video, Joe introduces three products that can be used to clean dirty belting in these applications.

What you'll learn:

• Idlers designed to shake refuge material from belting 
• Clamp on urethane thumpers for existing steel rolls
• Spiral-shaped rolls for conveyors from wet screens or screws
  
  

Key Insights

• Superior beater rolls clean cleated or grooved belts effectively.
• Beater rolls can be mounted on the return side for better cleaning.
• Clamp-on thumpers allow for adjustable vibration to enhance cleaning.
• These thumper designs ensure gentle cleaning while maintaining belt integrity.
• Spiral urethane rolls discharge material outward, preventing accumulation.
• Ideal for wet applications, particularly after screens and screws.
• Effective options exist for various belt conditions and materials.
