Re: Cleaning Of Cleated Conveyor Belting
Since proper cleaning is a major consideration in cleated sidewall belt application then the market for a cleanable belt must surely be at least as big as the present one for 'uncleanable' belts. 
It only remains to be seen how such a belt can be scraped clean by conventional methods. ■
Re: Cleaning Of Cleated Conveyor Belting
There is an absolute need for a good belt cleaner for cleated, sidewall belts.
The mess they create can be one of the major obstacles in promoting their use. ■

Thanks.
Did you try beater pulley?

Beater Pulley
"Did you try beater pulley?"
Beater pulleys can only try and dislodge carry back, but you still get a lot of product clinging on for dear life ! What this product does is allow normal cleaning and the efficiency you eget from that. I can't for reasons of "prior Art", give out too many details until I get the letter back from the patent office that I'm covered, but after that, anyone who's interested, can send a mail and I'll give you some details.
I've been in the industry 25 years so in my mind, I know it works, but there is always a nagging doubt that you are looking through rose coloured glasses, and so I wanted the views of all the guys on here, with all your vast amount of experiences. ■
Re: Cleaning Of Cleated Conveyor Belting
Please do post your development here so that we can see it, after you get the filing receipt. I am sure it will generate plenty of discussion. We need new stuff to play with, seriously. ■
Re: Cleaning Of Cleated Conveyor Belting
beater pulley can dislodge the clinged material in the pockets. additional scrappers on carrying side besides side wall, and scrappers at differant pulleys like upturn deflection and down turn deflection will also help to some extent.

Cleaning Cleated Belts.
Originally Posted by pappuHi Papu, can you give an idea what you mean with the scraper on carry side besides the sidewall? Surely all the cleats go up to the sidewall so any area where it will be in contact with the carrying region of the belt will have a cleat, and therefore an obstruction to the scraper? Unless you mean the area outside the carrying region (edge of the belt next to the sidewall), where if this is the case, the better option is to find out why product is getting into contact there? ■
Cleaning of Cleated Conveyor Belting
Hi all,
I'm looking for some advice as to the size and possibility of a market for a sidewall belt with cleats that is still able to be scraped clean in the traditional method.
I'd be grateful of any response, positive or negative that you all might have.
Thanks. ■
