Return Belt Ploughs or Return Belt Ploughs are designed to clean the inside of a conveyor belt on its return trip and to remove any large lumps that can potentially damage the belt or tail pulley lagging if allowed to travel through this area.
Applications
An Angle Plough is used as a substitute for the V Plough Scrapers when the material scraped off the belt surface can only be discharged to one side of the belt. For use on reversible belts.
Features
Unique track mounted scraping blade facilitates easy and quick blade change. Parallel dual link mounting allows the plough to move freely thus maintaing contact with the belt. Specially formulated PU blades ensure maximum blade life and minimum belt wear. Scraping angle is variable between 30 and 60 degrees.Can be mounted on the top, bottom or inside of the stringer.
Advantages
- As far forward (as close to the conveyor discharge) as possible.
- Positioned out of the material flow.
- Designed to minimize risk to belt, splice, and cleaner itself.
- Designed to stand up to “worst case” conditions.
- Designed for ease of maintenance, including simple blade replacement and reduced frequency of re-tensioning.
Installation
It is important that the ABS Plough be correctly positioned, ideally on a flat surface as close as practicable to the tail end or take-up area of the conveyor. The apex of the plough should be located 150 mm behind a flat return roller to achieve optimum cleaning performance.
- Loosely assemble plough connecting linkage arms to the plough body.
- Place the plough on the belt and ensure there is enough clearance. Position the mounting brackets in either a vertical or horizontal position, ensuring the centre line of the pole is between 190-350 mm above the return side of the belt.
- Mark and drill the holes to correspond with the mounting brackets and attach with M12 bolts.
- Centralize the ABS Plough in the correct position to the belt, located by locking shaft collars into position.
- Adjust the turnbuckle so the plough sits evenly across the belt.
- Test run belt to ensure the correct operation of the unit.
