Components · Belt Cleaning

Stop carryback before it becomes maintenance load.

Primary, secondary, ploughs, wash, brush and specialist cleaners — selected against belt width, speed, pulley diameter, material, moisture and belt condition. Tru-Trac cleaners reduce spillage, idler contamination and downstream mistracking.

02 / The problem

Carryback isn't a cleanliness problem. It's a system problem.

When material isn't removed at the head pulley, it returns through the system: contaminating return idlers, building up on tail pulleys, creating clean-up exposure and triggering secondary mistracking. The cost is measured in lost throughput, premium spares, and people doing manual housekeeping under load.

03 / Engineering logic

Cleaning architecture, matched to the duty.

Tru-Trac selects cleaners by belt width, speed, pulley diameter, material, moisture and belt condition — and arranges primary, secondary and plough roles into a coherent architecture for each conveyor.

  • 01

    Primary at the head pulley

    Bulk carryback removed at the source, where blade pressure and pulley diameter are matched.

  • 02

    Secondary downstream

    Residual carryback addressed where the belt is true and the contact point is stable.

  • 03

    Ploughs on the return

    V- and angle-plough systems protect tail and snub pulleys from material trapped on return.

  • 04

    Specialist cleaners where conditions demand

    Wash boxes, motorised brushes and food-grade cleaners for applications outside the standard envelope.

04 / Product range

Where this family sits and what it has done in the field.

Each Tru-Trac component family maps to one or more Zones of Control. Where field results exist, the dominant outcome metric is shown.
