Medium-Duty Belt Precleaner
A new addition to the Mineline conveyor
product family from Flexco, the MMP
medium-duty precleaner for underground
and surface conveyor applications is
claimed to provide consistent cleaning performance,
long operating life and low maintenance
in tough abrasive applications. The
Mineline MMP precleaner features Flexco’s
10-in. (250-mm) TuffShear blade that provides
optimal blade tip tension on high
speed, high load conveyor applications. It
is designed with 6 in. (150 mm) of useable
urethane, enabling the blade to deliver
20%-30% longer wear than conventional
blades in most medium-duty applications.
A faceted profile design renews the blade’s
cleaning edge as it wears. Blade replacement
can be performed quickly without
tools. Self-contained Quick Mount Tensioners
store sufficient energy to keep the
blade powered to the belt. A visual tension
check feature allows the blade to quickly
and easily be brought back to optimal tension
on the belt. Universal mounting plates
and assembled tensioners simplify installation.
Only 4 in. (100 mm) of horizontal
clearance is needed. Pole lengths are belt
width plus 54 in. (1,350 mm) to fit varying
conveyor or chute wall widths. Pole extensioners
are available for extended-length
requirements.
