MAINTENANCE
Engineering will provide replacement parts as required, for all cleaner assemblies using its urethane belt scrapers, regardless of model or blade type.
The company’ s replacement blades are mixed, formed and cured in a computer controlled, modular work station designed and built by the company’ s engineers, rather than subcontracting the production as some suppliers do. This process allows for the highest quality control and a one-day turnaround on most orders.
Engineered to effectively remove carryback, reduce material loss and provide longer belt life, the six colour-coded blade types“ allow operators to perfectly match urethane compounds to the specific belt, speed and types of material.” Some blade types are designed to perform under extreme temperatures as low as-40 ° C and as high as 150 ° C, and others are best suited for specific cargo such as hot slag and clinker, or moist materials. Martin Engineering primary cleaners are produced using the patented Constant-Area Radial Pressure( CARP) curved design, first introduced by Martin, to deliver consistent cleaning throughout all stages of blade life. The assemblies allow one-pin replacement, making maintenance a safe, no-tool operation performed from outside of the transfer chute.
In coal, the ASGCO ® One Sided Slide-ler™ helped a customer solve a load zone maintenance problem at a coal handling facility.
RESISTORS
ARE WHAT GRIDCOM DOES BEST!
The One Sided Slide-ler is designed to be maintained from one side of the conveyor, allowing you to replace the rolls with minimal downtime
The challenge was to be able to remove and to replace the impact rollers in the tail section with access limited to only one side, while providing an easier alternative to servicing them in the future. Many of the existing impact rollers had already failed. Some were stuck, worn flat, with shafts broken, and some were even missing.

These impact rollers were at a 10 ° trough, like many of the tailpiece style sections, where changing one of the impact beds was very difficult. The‘ off’ side of the transfer was blocked by a concrete footing or pillar. Any servicing that needed to be done on this side was cumbersome and in some cases depending on the problem, impossible.
The suggested solution was to remove the old impact rollers that were already deteriorated and to install One Sided Slidelers.“ The One Sided Slide-ler is designed to be maintained from one side of the conveyor, allowing you to replace the rolls with minimal downtime. This is the ideal system when access is only on one side of the conveyor or where a conveyor is located against the wall or high in the air with the catwalk on one side. The installation was problem free, even though the clearance was at a minimum. Due to the modular design they are now able to change out the rolls without

having to remove adjacent idler frames. The‘ off’ side, middle and near impact roller can now be changed by removing four easy to reach bolts.”
The pressure on organisations to minimise downtime and decrease expenditure is ever increasing and to many the essential, yet costly and time-consuming, area of conveyor belt maintenance is a challenging area. Monaflex says it has utilised 40 years’ experience in the tyre repair industry to develop“ a radical, lightweight conveyor belt maintenance system that changes everything. The Monaflex system can be used on belts up to 1,300 mm wide and operates effectively at 30 psi, rather than the traditional 100 psi, meaning no specialist equipment is required. The lower operating pressure means the bulky, heavy duty frameworks of traditional systems can be abandoned and the system can be transported in any standard vehicle and installed by a smaller than usual number of people. This means that you can achieve the same quality finish but the system itself is more cost-effective as there is no investment in pricey heavy metal work and assemblies. There is also reduced capital outlay due to the lack of specialist vehicles or lifting equipment; and a reduced core maintenance team size with no more need to utilise valuable resources to lug
