Dust-Free and Contactless Conveyor Belt Skirting has touched down at Kinder Australia!
AirScrape® is a specialised contact-free conveyor skirting and sealing system, which
acts as a side seal, suspended over the conveyor belt.
It is effective.
With its unique diagonal arrangement of hardened lamellae, air is led from the outside
into the middle of the belt, creating powerful air suction.
It is dust-free.
The material movement together with the moving belt support increases the suction
effect enabling fine dust particles to remain in the conveyor section. It works
effectively with both large and fine particles.
It minimises spillage.
Additionally, coarse materials pushing outward are led back to the middle of the belt
by the lamellae which can significantly minimise spillage.
It reduces wear.
Due to the skirting and sealing system’s ability to hover freely above the conveyor
belt, skirt friction and belt damage can be eliminated. The hardened steel blades are
effective in reducing skirt wear. The service life of other conveyor components may
be extended, as well as a significant reduction of maintenance and replacement
costs.
Simple to install by utilising existing clamping system – AirScrape® is installed using
spacers, floating the blades 0 – 1 mm freely above the belt and is attached to the
outside of the chute by lifting tensioners via a simple screw system. It is longitudinally
and laterally adjustable to follow the contours of conveyor belt rollers and the belt
trough angle.
AirScrape® is a multifaceted and highly beneficial system which is developed and
patented to the highest quality, safety and environmental standards. It can reduce the
spill and dust formation at transfer points and other critical sections in the conveyor
chain.
