Aggregate Plant Enhances Belt Cleaning and Improves Material Flow

Problem

 An aggregate plant needed a belt cleaning solution for its internal conveyors. Having already used services and products from Martin Engineering in the past at other sites, they turned to Martin again for help with this project. 

Solution

Martin Engineering recommended adding a Martin® QC1+™ Cleaner HD  with a Martin^® Twist™ Tensioner. The Martin® QC1+™ Cleaner HD features a heavy-duty one-piece curved urethane blade that combines rugged primary belt cleaning performance with one-pin blade replacement to out-perform competitor's belt scrapers.  

Martin also installed a Martin^® Inspection Door to provide a dust-tight seal that allows inspection and access to the enclosure for belt cleaner maintenance or other service requirements. To help unclog the storage silos, Martin installed Martin^® Air Cannons, which produce enhanced material flow with greater force, faster cycling, and improved safety.

Results

 Senior management was happy with the results and professionalism and plans to work with Martin Engineering on future sites and upgrades.
