Why is a belt cleaner important?
Without cleaning, carryback wears pulleys and idlers, causes mistracking and creates housekeeping and safety hazards under the conveyor.

Primary Scraper Cleaner
一级刮板清扫器
A primary belt cleaner with a segmented blade that removes the bulk of carry-back, copes with belt joins and lets you replace one worn segment instead of the whole assembly.

Usage
Usage
Primary Scraper Cleaner — a 1st-stage scraper mounted tight against the belt at the discharge (head) pulley. It removes the bulk of carryback — wet fines, clay and slurry — the instant material leaves the pulley; this single stage is the most important for keeping the return run clean and is fitted on every loaded conveyor.

Technical overview
Belt cleaners scrape carryback off the return strand so material does not build up on pulleys, idlers and structure. HBXM offers primary and secondary cleaners with polyurethane or tungsten blades rated for wet, sticky and abrasive ores.
Primary vs secondary cleaner: which do I need?
Use a primary cleaner at the head pulley for bulk carryback, then a secondary cleaner downstream for the fine residual layer.
Which blade material lasts longest?
Polyurethane suits most dry and medium-abrasive ores; tungsten or ceramic-tipped blades are best for very hard, wet and sticky materials.
Can cleaners be retrofitted to an existing conveyor?
Yes. Our cleaners mount to standard stringer widths with adjustable tension and fit most head-pulley arrangements without conveyor modification.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How many segments do I need?
Enough to cover the belt width with a small gap between them — typically 4–8 segments on a 1000 mm belt. The gaps let each segment follow the belt independently.
What blade material suits my material?
Polyurethane for medium abrasion and a belt cover you want to protect; tungsten carbide for sinter, coke and high-abrasion ore where blade life is the priority.
How do I tension a segmented cleaner?
Set the springs to the manufacturer's datum, run the conveyor loaded for one shift, then re-check. Spring tension should be re-verified at every planned inspection.
