Cleaning of conveyor belts
The POLYTECH-HD conveyor belt cleaning system is used as the first (coarse) cleaning stage.
The equipment cleans the belt when it touches the working side of the belt while the belt is on the conveyor drum.
The system removes small hydrophilic particles that would otherwise stick to the belt and fall under the conveyor. Most of the adhering material is immediately returned to the main cargo flow with the help of the system, minimizing the loss of bulk materials.
POLYTECH-HD equipment minimizes maintenance costs and the amount of unplanned downtime due to emergency shutdowns.
Description of the conveyor belt cleaning system POLYTECH-HD
The carrier structure is made of steel elements, the cleaning knife is made of polyurethane.
The system is mounted on the drive drum of the conveyor line, the cleaning knife fits snugly to the surface of the conveyor belt along its entire length and provides effective cleaning without damaging the belt.
The blade is tightly pressed against the belt surface by means of a mechanism for adjusting the pressing force. This design protects the tape from damage.
If any defect in the belt surface affects the blade of the cleaning knife, the spring torsion arms of the clamping force adjustment mechanism deflect the blade away from the belt surface, allowing safe use of the system.
