KAWE Conveyor Belt Cleaner – New Generation

Our conveyor belt cleaner offers an easy solution for your cleaning needs. Simple and quick to install, it does not take up much space and can easily support your conveyor belt. Its light weight and low maintenance make it very effective. Made of PU and hard metal, it is a robust addition to your conveyor belt and reduces the cleaning time tremendously. The belt cleaner is located inside a support tube which protects it from outside influences.

The new system developed by KAWE is already used in following industries:

• Sand mining
• Concrete/Gravel production
• Sawmills
• Salt production

The conveyor belt cleaner complies with the test report in accordance with Commission Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011 of January 2011 on plastic materials and articles intended to encounter food. It is therefore ideal for use in the food industry. It can also be used there as an under-belt cleaner. Our cleaner has the following advantages for you:

• superior hygienic standard

• minimal production loss

• little maintenance effort (especially cleaning)

• easy installation

• all components from stainless steel and food-grade polyurethane (FDA-approval)
• highly resistant to oil, fat and solvents
• suitable for use within a large temperature range
• constructed to prevent the danger of any single component loosening and contaminating the product
• hingeable from the belt surface, which allows quick and easy cleaning without the need for additional tools
• high wear resistance and minimal belt wear even under dry run conditions
• available in many different sizes to suit your installation (up to 1800 mm)
• deliverable for convex driving rolls
• installable with minimum effort

Ideal material property with our belt cleaner

Our conveyor belt cleaner consists of a unique polyurethane (FDA-approval) developed by KAWE. It offers special properties with exceptionally good sliding and wear resistance as well as a very dynamic capacitance and good resilience. Product contaminations, even from mechanical damage (i.e. by foreign bodies), are nearly impossible due to its fold and tear resistance.

Longevity is secured by a good to very good resistance to weathering and to UV radiation.

Easy construction

The perfect pressure is required for optimal cleaning by our belt cleaner. KAWE has developed a special maintenance-free torsion element, located in the axle tube. This has the advantage of saving a lot of space and protecting the torsion element against external attacks. The torsion element and axle tube are sealed with two O-Rings. These guarantee an optimal protection against the infiltration of dirt or product remains.

Uncomplicated assembly

One of the biggest advantages of our belt cleaner is the cost-effective and fast assembly. Most of the time there is no need for changes to the conveyor belt or the hopper. This depends on the on-site construction. If the cleaner needs to be reallocated after an “on-site assembly”, this can be carried out easily by twisting the eccentric counter bearing.

Setting of the scraping pressure

To set the scraping pressure from the scraper to the belt, the two fastening screws need to be loosened and the torsion element can be adjusted adequately.

Simple way of cleaning

To clean the scraper, it can be flapped from the belt surface contrary to the direction of torsion with the hand lever without additional tools.

Installation options

Our belt cleaners can be used in very different way. Most of the time they are used as head- or drum scrapers. They are very effective and quick to install.

The perfect positioning of our belt cleaner is dependent on the product and its further use. If the scraped product is supposed to remain within the production flow and be further transported, the scraper position needs to be like mounting position 1 (see picture).

If the scraped product is supposed to be separated from the main stream, the scraper position needs to be similar to mounting positions 2 or 3.

The hinge moment, which emanates from a supporting tube located behind the scraper, is being transmitted to the scraper via corresponding levers. The hinge moment can be set individually, like for the standardized scraper.

Besides our standardized scraper (which is mainly used as head or pulley scraper), we offer our customers the universal scraper. This version of the belt cleaner can scrape even more difficult products like sugar icing. The universal scraper is manufactured with a supporting axis, instead of a supporting tube.

Originally our belt cleaner and scrapers have been developed for being used in large variety of sectors, ranging from the food industry to wastewater purification and brick production. However, there are even more possibilities, which we will be happy to advise you on. This proves that innovative products can be successfully used in different fields and still offer a perfect solution for the needs of our customers. 

Depending on the application, various wear segments made of polyurethane, ceramic or carbide are available. Your experts at KAWE will be happy to advise you on which scraper for conveyor belts offers the ideal solution for your application. The segments can also be replaced quickly and without a great deal of expertise.
