BELT CLEANERS CARRYBACK REMOVAL SOLUTIONS FOR ALL APPLICATIONS L3651

PROBLEM CONSEQUENCES OF CARRYBACK Carryback is material that sticks to the belt past the discharge point and then drops off along the conveyor’s return run. Without belt cleaners, prevalent carryback causes… • Reduced operating efficiency and profitability through increased expenses for maintenance and cleanup and the loss of material. • Unsafe working conditions caused by material accumulation on floors and walkways, creating fire hazards and slip/trip hazards. • Material buildup on rolling components leading to seized idlers, wandering belts and increased power consumption. • Health...

OLVED CARRYBACK REMOVAL SOLUTION Belt cleaner systems from Martin Engineering make conveyor systems cleaner, safer and more productive. With belt cleaners, minimalized carryback results in... • Improved maintenance planning and conveyor availability as emergency outages, unscheduled downtime and “hurry-up” repairs are reduced. • Reduced maintenance expenses by lower labor costs for fewer and faster service procedures. Improved manpower utilization by fewer belttracking and material-cleanup chores. • Maximized equipment life by fewer replacements of prematurely worn components damaged by...

MARTIN® PRIMARY CLEANERS As the first stage in a multiple cleaner system, the primary cleaner removes the majority of material adhered to the belt, leaving only a thin layer of sticky fines. Primary cleaners are generally tensioned at low pressure—roughly 2 psi (13.8 kPa)—against the belt. Low blade-to-belt pressure allows the primary cleaner to be positioned at a peeling angle against the belt. The use of higher pressure at this angle would endanger the belt, splice or cleaner itself. Primary cleaners are typically installed on the face of the head pulley, just below the material...

PATENTED CARP CLEANER BLADES Martin belt cleaner blades come in a large array of shapes, sizes and materials to most effectively remove any type of material carryback while protecting the belt and its splices. Martin’s patented Constant-Angle/ Constant-Area Radial Pressure (CARP) blade design maintains consistent cleaning through all stages of blade wear. MARTIN® HIGH-PERFORMANCE URETHANES Martin® CARP Blades are protected by U.S. Patent No. 4,917,231. Martin Engineering is the worldwide leader in the development of high-performance urethanes for specialized applications. Available for any...

MARTIN® QC™ BLADE REPLACEMENT One-pin blade replacement makes belt cleaner blade replacement an easy, one-minute, no-tool operation performed from outside of the chute. Simply (1) remove the R-clip and (2) slide the hitch pin out of the mainframe extrusion to (3) release the blade. MARTIN® QC1™ BLADE OPTIONS Segments only XX10 (for crowned head pulleys)

CLEANSCRAPE® CLEANER The CleanScrape® Cleaner lasts up to four times as long as traditional belt cleaners. Safe for use on mechanical and vulcanized splices, this metal-tipped cleaner provides aggressive cleaning without compromising your belt. Requiring minimal ongoing maintenance, CleanScrape® needs only one tensioner adjustment—EVER. Installed at an angle, very little space for installation is required.

MARTIN® COMPACT CLEANER Fits in spaces with as little as 6.75 inches (171 mm) of clearance on pulleys as small as 7 inches (180 mm) in diameter. Blades are available in high-performance urethane colors to match application requirements. Patented “CARP” blade design maintains cleaning performance through all stages of blade life. CARP Blade To replace worn blade, slide new blade onto square tube mainframe. Supplied with internal spring tensioner. Same ease of installation as current Martin® QC1™ Cleaners, maintaining standard installation and service costs. Utilizes Martin’s highly...

Same ease of installation as current Martin® QC1™ Cleaners, CARP Blade maintaining standard installation and service costs. Utilizes Martin’s highly effective, patented “CARP” profile, ensuring the highest level of cleaning performance expected from a Martin® Belt Cleaner. Utilizes Martin’s innovative EVO® design principles to reduce component surface exposure to material flow, minimizing material build-up and the resulting clean-up costs, production interruptions and safety concerns. Direct retrofit to current installations; no need for new holes or cutting head chutes. Direct retrofit to...

MARTIN® QC1™ CLEANER XHD Engineered to preserve the cleaning edge from high belts speeds and multiple splices. Patented “CARP” blade design maintains cleaning performance through all stages of blade life. Mainframe of rugged 3/8-in. (9-mm) DOM steel tubing has a steel bar backbone. An aluminum extrusion in the belt cleaner blade base holds the cleaner snugly to the backbone. CARP Blade MARTIN® SHD 600 & 1200 SERIES CLEANERS Structural steel means no more bent mainframes, even with high tonnages and large lumps. Massive urethane blades provide up to 12 inches (305 mm) of wear life. CARP...

MARTIN® SECONDARY CLEANERS Installed at the point where the belt is leaving the discharge pulley, secondary cleaners remove residual fines that remain on the belt past the primary cleaner. Its location is typically close enough to the material trajectory that the cleanings will return to the main material stream. Additional tertiary cleaners can be installed to provide final cleaning. These cleaners can be the same model as the secondary cleaner, or of a different design to allow efficient cleaning and maintenance within the available space. SELECT|°N GU|DE As these cleaners are typically...
