ASGCO - Self-adjusting Blades

ASGCO introduced the Pit-Skalper, a primary belt cleaner. The technology is based on the Skalper, which is used throughout the world in the harshest environments, the company reported. The Pit-Skalper is designed to handle the needs of portable crushing and screening plants while removing carryback from the conveyor belt. It uses the same patented E-Z Torque tensioner as the rest of the Skalper line, featuring a stainless-steel spring, allowing the blades to self-adjust, making it the most robust and accurate belt cleaner tensioner in the industry, ASGCO reported. The tensioner and mounting tube are zinc-plated for corrosion resistance and the blades can be quickly changed from one side of the conveyor belt. Pit-Skalper can be installed on any belt with maximum blade speeds of 600 ft/m (3 m per second) and a pulley diameter of 10 in. to 20 in.
