Product catalog summary
Overview
This document provides a comprehensive overview of Flexco's belt conveyor products designed to address common issues such as carryback, belt slip, mistracking, and spillage. With over 100 years of experience, Flexco offers solutions that enhance belt performance and productivity.
Key Issues and Solutions
  • Carryback: Material that sticks to the belt and falls off along the return side. Solutions include belt cleaners, belt plows, and cleaner blades.
  • Belt Slip: Occurs when the drive pulley loses friction with the belt. Solutions include ceramic and rubber pulley lagging.
  • Mistracking: The belt drifts, causing spillage and uneven wear. Solutions include belt trainers and positioners.
  • Spillage: Material spills off the belt at transfer points. Solutions include skirt clamps, impact beds, belt plows, and urethane skirting.
Innovations
  • Cleaner Innovations: Features include patented blade profiles, tungsten carbide blades, spring tensioning systems, and larger diameter poles.
  • Belt Tracking Innovations: Pivot-and-Tilt technology guides the belt back to the correct path.
  • Impact Bed Innovations: Velocity Reduction Technology and Slide-Out Service for easy maintenance.
  • Lagging Innovations: 80%-ceramic solutions and fast installation options.
Benefits
  • Budget Savings: Products extend belt life and reduce wear on components, leading to cost savings.
  • Lower Maintenance Costs: Reduced carryback and spillage decrease cleanup and repair time.
  • Consistent Performance: Products help maximize uptime by addressing issues that cause system damage.
  • Greater Safety: Minimizes maintenance needs and reduces accident risks.
  • Serviceability: Designed for easy servicing to ensure long-lasting performance.
Product Features
  • Precleaners: Mounted to the head pulley, ideal for removing large material pieces. Options include polyurethane and tungsten carbide blades.
  • Secondary Cleaners: Located past the head pulley, effective at removing fines.
  • Blade Options: Polyurethane for mechanical splices and tungsten carbide for superior cleaning.
Application Classification Guide
The CEMA guide provides a method for determining the application class of belt cleaners based on criteria such as belt width, speed, splice type, material abrasiveness, and moisture content. This classification helps in selecting the appropriate cleaning system.
Flexco Precleaners
Various models are available, each suited for different applications and conditions, such as high temperature or corrosive environments. Specifications include maximum belt speed and pulley diameter, with applications ranging from mining to food processing.
Specifications
The document outlines specifications for different classes of cleaners, including maximum belt speeds and pulley diameters. For example, the MXP Extreme-Duty Precleaner supports a maximum belt speed of 2,000 fpm (10.0 m/sec) and is suitable for underground mining and other heavy-duty applications.
Applications
Flexco cleaners are used in diverse industries such as power plants, mining, steel mills, and cement production. Each cleaner is categorized under a CEMA class, indicating its suitability for specific applications.
Recommendations
It is recommended to consult Flexco for tailored advice on product selection based on specific operational conditions. The document also suggests that belt speeds can be higher in vulcanized applications.
Additional Information
The document includes details on the installation and maintenance of cleaners, emphasizing ease of service and inspection. It also highlights the compatibility of Flexco cleaners with mechanical fasteners and the benefits of using their patented tensioning systems.
Impact Beds
  • Modular Impact Bed (MIB): Suitable for sand and gravel applications with a bed rating of up to 200 lb/ft and a maximum belt speed of 1000 fpm.
  • Modular Slider Bed (MSB): Designed for hard rock mining and limestone quarrying, with a bed rating of up to 1500 lb/ft.
  • Features include adjustable trough angles and sectional slide-out service for easy maintenance.
Skirting Systems

  • Options include Flex-Seal™, Flex-Lok™, and polyurethane skirting, each providing different levels of wear resistance and ease of installation.
Plows
  • Flexco provides RDP1 Diagonal Plow and V-Plow to prevent material from damaging tail pulleys.
  • These plows are designed to discharge debris effectively and are easy to install and maintain.
Pulley Lagging
  • Flex-Lag® products are available in rubber, ceramic, and weld-on options, each suited for different environmental conditions and belt tensions.
  • Lagging options are designed to improve traction and reduce slippage, with specific recommendations based on pulley diameter and belt width.
Adhesives
  • Flex-Lag® Adhesives are a two-part cold bonding system for rubber-to-rubber and rubber-to-metal adhesion, free of CFCs.
  • Charts are provided to determine the correct order quantities based on pulley size.
Training and Maintenance
  • Flexco offers global training programs to ensure proper installation and maintenance of their products, maximizing return on investment.

CEMA (Conveyor Equipment Manufacturers Association) publishes a guide with the explicit goal of providing "a uniform method for determining the application class of any individual belt cleaner." This is meant as a way to assist in the selection of the correct belt cleaner or belt cleaner system. The complete guide, titled "Classification of Applications for Bulk Material Conveyor Belt Cleaning," or CEMA Standard 576, is available from CEMA. The classification is built on a points system based on five key criteria. While others play a role as noted on Page 6, these five were chosen as the key...
