Trellex cleaner blade

Metso Outotec has developed a belt cleaning product range called ABC—Absolute Belt Cleaning. The goal was to provide technical solutions that gave the products high efficiency, long wear life, and a minimal need for maintenance.
High efficiency ensures minimum spillage
The parameters that affect the efficiency are, among other things, the scraper to belt contact angle, the contact area, and the contact pressure per surface unit. On the ABC scrapers, these values are kept as close to the ideal as possible throughout the wear life of the blades. To further increase the efficiency of the scraper, the blades are divided into segments, which can move independently of each other.
Long wear life for lowest cost per tonne
With high and constant cleaning efficiency of the Metso Outotec scrapers, the amount of material still adhering to the belt after the scraper is reduced to a minimum.
Minimal maintenance needs for trouble-free operation

The blades are shaped in such a way that the build-up of material on the blades is significantly reduced

Since the blade to belt contact pressure remains almost constant throughout the entire wear life of the scraper blade, there’s no need to re-tension the spring tensioner. The blades are shaped in such a way that the build-up of material on the blades is significantly reduced.
High reliability during the entire life of the scraper
ABC scrapers are made of Trellex’s own polyurethane material, which is designed for reduced wear properties and to allow an aggressive scraping angle without risk of damaging the belt. The special blade design means no reinforcing metal parts are needed, and the base of the blade is securely held by a cleverly designed aluminium cassette.
Cleaners—primary and secondary
Metso Outotec has a complete range of options for primary and secondary belt cleaning. The purpose of primary cleaners is to remove any coarser material that’s stuck to the conveyor belt after it leaves the head pulley and to keep the belt as clean as possible.
By contrast, secondary cleaners are used to remove the fine material. For cleated belts carrying dry material, a Trellex Belt Brush can be an ideal solution to clean an uneven belt surface.
