Success Story: Scrapetec Dust Control Products in the US

Based on more than 3 decades of know-how in the area of materials handling technology, we have been analyzing critical points in conveyor systems and developing new cost-efficient solutions for improvement and optimization. With this innovation strategy we have been creating unique products like the AirScrape, DustScrape and SpeedScrape. Our new developments are economic and easy to assemble but allow a significant prevention of dust formation, spill and a more careful and efficient belt cleaning at critical sections along the conveyor route and transfer points.

It often happens that the belt runs off-center, which can lead to significant damage. This is where the PrimeTracker from ScrapeTec comes into play—an innovative solution that ensures conveyor belts always remain optimally aligned. Unlike traditional trackers that push or pull the belt back to the center through friction, the PrimeTracker operates entirely frictionlessly, offering an extremely long service life. How the PrimeTracker Works Traditional bottom belt trackers use mechanical resistance to guide the belt back to the center. However, this causes wear and requires regular maintenance. In contrast, ScrapeTec’s PrimeTracker controls the belt in an innovative way. Through intelligent design, it immediately responds to deviations and guides the belt back to the center without friction. This not only reduces wear but also significantly extends the lifespan of the entire system. Word-of-Mouth and the Success Story Since ScrapeTec does not have a large distribution

India’s rise to become the second largest cement producer and ScrapeTec’s success story with AirScrape India’s largest and only cement magazine, the 38-year-old Indian Cement Review magazine is scheduled to host the 14th Cement EXPO on 14th - 15th December at Hotel Manekshaw Center, New Delhi. The co-located 9th Indian Cement Review Conference will address the cement industry’s ambitions to deliver sustainable, low-carbon cement, in line with the 2030 carbon reduction targets, while navigating the major economic forces impacting businesses at present. The cement industry in India is a major contributor to the country’s economy. In 2023, the industry produced 356 million tons of cement, making India the second largest cement producer in the world. Scrapetec is also looking forward to participating in the Cement EXPO in Delhi and presenting innovative solutions in the field of cement technology. The participation in this important event underlines its commitment to the Indian cement industry. Actually, ScrapeTec had planned to enter the Indian market in

ScrapeTec, the developers of innovative dust protection solutions for conveyor transfer points, are taking the international stage in September 2023, showcasing their outstanding solutions and innovations at not one, but three global trade shows. This commitment shows the company’s aim to strengthen its global presence and solidify its leading position in the industry. The first stop is Mining Indonesia Jakarta, a highly esteemed event in the mining industry, taking place from September 13th to 16th. The ScrapeTec team is happy about the promising prospects in Indonesia, despite having no direct references in this market. Nevertheless, there have been numerous inquiries and strong interest in their products and services. To establish a foothold in this emerging market, they plan to participate in Mining Indonesia. ”This trade show will be the first step in our strategy to enter Indonesia and get to know potential business partners and customers,” said Managing Director Thorsten Koth. Furthermore, they are pleased to involve their partner from Australia, KINDER PTY, in their efforts. Kinder Australia, is dedicated to providing their customers with the most advanced and efficient bulk handling solutions

Scrapetec specialists work continuously on solutions for addressing specific challenges at conveyor system transfer points in industries where dust and material spillage are significant concerns. This encompasses sectors such as mining and quarrying. The risk of explosions caused by dust emissions on conveyor belts is an ongoing problem that engineers around the world are trying to prevent. ScrapeTec experts developed a new dust control system about five years ago, that is proving to be highly effective – not only for preventing dust formation and material spill, but also to minimise the risk of explosion at critical sections along the conveyor route and transfer points and for more efficient belt-cleaning. ScrapeTec products – which are engineered in Germany to pristine quality and environmental standards – are proving to offer even greater operational cost savings in materials handling, than anticipated at the launch of the range. Apart from the benefit of cost savings, DustScrape and AirScrape dust suppression systems are highly effective in minimising exposure of workers to environmental pollution, which is a major problem caused by fugitive dust in dry bulk handling. Although conventional dust
