Belt Cleaner Solutions by TS Global: Ensuring Efficient Material Handling

Belt Cleaner

At TS Global, based in Sydney, we are dedicated to providing high-quality solutions for the bulk material handling industry. A key component of any material handling system is the belt cleaner, which plays a crucial role in maintaining conveyor efficiency, reducing downtime, and improving safety. 

Whether you’re managing a large mining operation or a smaller industrial site, ensuring that your conveyor systems remain clean and free from debris is essential for optimal performance.

What is a Belt Cleaner?

A belt cleaner is a mechanical device that removes excess material from conveyor belts after they pass through the loading zone. Without proper cleaning, material residue can build up, leading to various issues such as belt misalignment, premature wear, and increased energy consumption. Belt cleaners are strategically placed at critical points along the conveyor to maximise efficiency and prevent unnecessary downtime due to material spillage.

The Importance of Belt Cleaners

Conveyor systems are vital for transporting materials in industries such as mining, construction, and manufacturing. However, without an effective belt cleaner, material carryback can lead to several operational issues:

  • Material Spillage: Loose material falling from the belt can create safety hazards and lead to wasted resources.
  • Belt Wear: Excess material on the belt increases friction, which accelerates wear and tear, potentially leading to costly repairs or replacements.
  • Increased Energy Consumption: A dirty belt adds resistance, forcing the conveyor motor to work harder, increasing energy usage and operational costs.
  • Downtime: Debris buildup can cause belt misalignment or require frequent maintenance, reducing productivity and leading to operational delays

By investing in an effective belt cleaner, these issues can be minimised, allowing your operations to run smoothly.

TS Global’s Belt Cleaner Solutions

At TS Global, we understand the challenges of material handling and have developed a range of belt cleaners to suit the specific needs of our clients. We pride ourselves on offering durable, efficient, and easy-to-maintain belt cleaners that are designed to handle even the most demanding environments.

  • Primary Belt Cleaners
    Our primary belt cleaners are positioned at the head pulley and are the first line of defence in removing material from the conveyor belt. These cleaners are built for heavy-duty applications and are designed to work with both wet and dry materials. Their robust construction ensures longevity and reduces maintenance requirements.

  • Secondary Belt Cleaners
    Installed further down the conveyor system, secondary belt cleaners provide additional cleaning to ensure that any residual material left by the primary cleaner is removed. This extra layer of cleaning helps to maximise belt efficiency and minimises the risk of carryback.

  • Tertiary Belt Cleaners
    For operations requiring an even more thorough cleaning, tertiary belt cleaners can be installed. These are especially useful for highly abrasive or sticky materials where primary and secondary cleaners may not be sufficient on their own.

Customised Solutions for Your Needs

No two conveyor systems are alike, and at TS Global, we understand the importance of tailoring our belt cleaning solutions to your specific requirements. We offer a range of customisation options, including:

  1. Material Type: Depending on the materials being handled, we can provide belt cleaners with specialised blades or scrapers to optimise performance.
  2. Conveyor Design: Our engineers will assess your conveyor system and recommend the most suitable belt cleaner configuration to ensure maximum efficiency.
  3. Environmental Considerations: Whether you’re dealing with harsh weather conditions or high-temperature environments, our belt cleaners are built to withstand the elements and maintain their performance.
