Essential Maintenance for Efficient Operations by TSGlobal

In industrial settings where conveyor belts are integral to operations, maintaining their efficiency is crucial. One of the key elements in ensuring the smooth and efficient running of these systems is the use of a conveyor belt cleaner. At TSGlobal, based in Sydney, Australia, we specialise in providing top-quality conveyor belt cleaners designed to optimise performance and prolong the life of your conveyor systems.

Understanding the Importance of Conveyor Belt Cleaners

Conveyor belts are used in a variety of industries, from mining to manufacturing, to transport materials across long distances. However, these belts are prone to accumulating debris, material carryback, and build-up of substances like mud, coal, or other bulk materials. This not only reduces the efficiency of the conveyor system but can also lead to significant downtime due to maintenance needs or even cause damage to the belt and other machinery.

A conveyor belt cleaner is a device specifically designed to remove these unwanted materials from the conveyor belt. By keeping the belt clean, the cleaner prevents issues such as misalignment, excess wear and tear, and material spillage, which can otherwise lead to costly repairs and loss of productivity.

Types of Conveyor Belt Cleaners

At TSGlobal, we offer a range of conveyor belt cleaners to suit different operational needs. Each type is designed with specific applications in mind, ensuring that whatever your industry, there is a suitable solution available.

1. Primary Belt Cleaners
   Primary belt cleaners are installed at the head pulley, where they effectively remove the majority of material carryback. These cleaners are typically made from durable polyurethane or carbide materials, which provide excellent wear resistance and ensure a long service life. Primary belt cleaners are essential for minimising material accumulation and maintaining optimal belt performance.

2. Secondary Belt Cleaners
   Secondary belt cleaners are positioned further along the conveyor belt, providing additional cleaning power. These cleaners are designed to remove any residual material that may have escaped the primary cleaner. Secondary cleaners often feature a flexible blade that conforms to the surface of the belt, ensuring thorough cleaning without causing damage.

3. V-Plough Cleaners
   The V-Plough cleaner is designed to remove material from the return side of the conveyor belt. This prevents material from becoming trapped between the belt and the tail pulley, which can cause serious damage over time. The V-Plough cleaner is particularly effective in environments where the conveyor belt is transporting sticky or wet materials, such as in mining operations or aggregate processing.
