Chip conveyor belt cleaners

Conveyor Belt Cleaner

The ChipBlocker®, compact conveyor belt cleaner, mounts to the discharge end of a hinged steel belt conveyor. Install the conveyor belt cleaner system on a newly purchased conveyors or retro-fit to most existing chip conveyors.

Chip Blockers play an essential role in conveyor systems. In many applications scrap metal carry back sticks to the belt and can fall off at various points along the return side of the belt. This carry back can cause costly machine tool and conveyor belt maintenance. A series of spray nozzles on the ChipBlocker® gently wash chips off the belt to preventing chip and scrap metal carry back. It virtually eliminates chip carry-back into the conveyor and chip accumulation in the coolant supply tank.

  • Prevents conveyor belt misalignment due to the artificial crown created by carry back
  • Flushes the chips off the underside of the conveyor belt after the chip discharge point, but before the belt returns to the inside of the conveyor housing
  • Eliminates the opportunity for significant migration of chips into the machine tool coolant supply tank
  • Typically, only about 1.5 gallons per minute of coolant flow is required
  • The chip basket is removable and easily accessible for periodic cleaning
  • Can be used on any conveyor system 1.5″ or 2.5″ pitch belting
  • Pumps
