Your Exclusive Source for Infinity Belting’s Patented Finger Scraper System
August 26, 2024In industries reliant on conveyor systems, the problem of carryback—when material binds to a belt, resulting in product loss—can cause significant issues. This residual material leads to product loss and contributes to extra labor costs and unplanned downtime. Traditional cleaning systems, like brush cleaners, often fall short in effectively removing carryback. The bristles can become clogged with material, damaging the belts they’re supposed to clean.
At Motion Conveyance Solutions, we understand the importance of maintaining an efficient conveyor system. That’s why we offer the Infinity Belt Scraper—a revolutionary solution designed to eliminate carryback more effectively than traditional methods.
The Infinity Belt Scraper: A Permanent Solution
The Infinity Belt Scraper stands out with its innovative design, featuring single or dual rows of hard durometer urethane fingers. These fingers clean the surface of conveyor belts using a “flicking” motion.
- Single-row finger scraper assembly: Ideal for removing the bulk of material from the underside of the conveyor belt, making it perfect for operations with limited installation space.
- Dual-row finger scraper assembly: Ensures a more thorough clean by using a second set of fingers to comb through grooves in the belt. The result is a pre-cleaned conveyor belt surface that’s ready to handle the next load without issue.
Versatility Across Multiple Belt Types
One of the key benefits of the Infinity Belt Scraper is its versatility. Unlike other scrapers that are limited to specific belt types or require precise positioning, the Infinity Belt Scraper works effectively with both flat and profiled conveyor belts. It is particularly suited for chevron and textured belting, with or without mechanical fasteners.
The scraper auto-aligns to the belt, adapting to changing belt conditions to maintain optimal pressure on the underside of the belt. This eliminates the need for springs or weights, reducing potential pinch points and further ensuring the safety and longevity of your conveyor system.
Flexible Installation and Easy Maintenance
Another advantage of the Infinity Belt Scraper is its flexible positioning. While many scrapers must be installed at the head or discharge pulley, the Infinity Belt Scraper can be mounted anywhere on the return side of the conveyor system. This flexibility makes it a versatile option for a wide range of installations.
Maintenance is straightforward with the Infinity Belt Scraper. The urethane fingers are easily accessible for quick maintenance and cleanup. The system is designed so that inspections can be performed from the ground without needing lifts or stopping the conveyor. Additionally, our finger combs are easier to install and replace than those on other scrapers on the market, minimizing downtime during maintenance.
Long-Term Cost Savings
The Infinity Belt Scraper isn’t just an investment in your conveyor system; it’s an investment in your bottom line. By significantly reducing carryback, the scraper helps:
- Reduce material loss by up to 80%.
- Avoid extra labor costs for cleanup.
- Maintain belt tracking and increase belt life.
- Decrease downtime in your operation.
These savings add up, potentially saving thousands of dollars annually on each conveyor in your operation.
