AirScrape conveyor belt skirting, the first installation Case-Study.

Worldwide practical application experience and here the first installation of the first contact free conveyor belt skirting. Since installation nor friction, no wear, no maintenance, no dust, no spillage.
Already in 2012, in response to a specific operator requirement, Wilfried Dünnwald, inventor of this technology, developed the prototype of the AirScrape. The conveyor belt skirting system worked perfectly from the first minute, is still reliably in use today and was ultimately a major factor in the founding of ScrapeTec Trading GmbH.
The AirScrape systems installed on plants in various industries now protect about 1,000 belt transfers worldwide. Parallel to the interest in these units, the number of contractual partnerships is also growing. Trained specialists are on the road everywhere to ensure installation and service. Here is one selected example:
Germany: The solution was perfectly convincing for the operators of a dolomite processing plant, who regularly had to deal with dust and material losses at the transfer from the rotor crusher to the belt. Material spills in the ton range and enormous dust generation were an annoying standard. In addition, there were unfavorable side effects, such as belt wear due to the friction of the former sealing solutions. In contrast, the AirScrape installed in 2013 in the respective transfer was convincing right from the first test run. Even in the long term, the advantages speak for themselves: no spills, no time-consuming cleaning and no maintenance work. In the meantime, it has been proven that the service life of conveyor belts working with AirScrape has increased significantly and the service life of the belt rollers benefits from the dust reduction. The operators confirm even the statement of reduced energy costs for the conveyor systems. The AirScrape first used in Uehrde is still in fail-safe use today. After the DustScrape was introduced to the market, the company decided to equip further transfers with ScrapeTec’s solutions. In North Rhine-Westphalia, the company Inashco extracts marketable mineral recycling fractions from residual ashes of waste incineration in a peripheral branch of the company. The treatment process with different screening and cleaning stages was well coordinated, but also characterized by annoying material leaks at belts and transfers. As the ashes have a high moisture content due to the process, it was not clear to what extent the AirScrape would be able to prevent even such moist and sticky material from escaping. However, a corresponding test was surprisingly successful. In the meantime, the relevant transfers of the plant have been equipped with AirScrape systems. Those responsible confirm that the cleaning effort has been reduced from several hours of daily operation to only two hours per week. Since the introduction of the AirScrape, a good 90 % of the time that once flowed into cleaning duties is now available for productive work.

AirScrape solves the problem of harmful dust
The problem of harmful dust at the conveyor transfer points could be solved convincingly by using the AirScrape. More than 60 conveyor transfer points in that plant were equipped with the AirScrape Spain: A well-known manufacturer of demanding surfaces made of stony material has also chosen the AirScrape in search of a sustainable solution to minimize emissions at belt transfers. First, a transfer point in one of the plants was equipped for test purposes. The measurements during the first test run and in the later process showed a minimization of dust generation of more than 80 % compared to before. The overall advantages in terms of efficiency, occupational safety and protection were so convincing that more than 60 transfer points in the company’s plants were equipped with AirScrape conveyor skirt sealing system. In correlation to the dust reduction, the health-related downtimes of the workforce, previously exposed to massive dust development, were also reduced.

Peru first AirScrape test
The new conveyor belt skirting, the AirScrape runs on high performance 12 months now. The mine confirmed and appreciate, the high cost savings and the clean dust free working places at the conveyor belts. A new user, operator of the processing plant of a large mine, had to readjust the conventional conveyor skirting at belt transfer points every 2 weeks and replace them completely every 4 months, causing enormous downtimes and costs of the equivalent of € 240 000 each. The plant managers hoped to stretch these cycles. They discovered the AirScrape at the Perumin 2019 trade fair and decided to test the conveyor skirting at one of the most critical transfers at the highest point of the plant. From there, dust not only trickled into the entire plant, but was also carried by the wind in the direction of the lower situated nearby village. After the test installation of the AirScrape of 10 m per side of the conveyor, the effectiveness was immediately apparent. Only 2 weeks later, the main manager approved a large AirScrape order. In the meantime, elements for 150 m (both sides) have been purchased to convert a total of 5 belt transfers to AirScrape. Furthermore, there are

AirScrape, the conveyor skirting comparison
No wear, no maintenance for months/years The mining industry in Peru relies entirely on the AirScrape. There is no more wear and tear, dust or spillage. Employees can concentrate on the essentials in a clean environment. See attached video before and after, Health and Safety. In addition, the downtimes could be reduced dramatically. In the past, the conveyor belt skirting had to be readjusted or replaced every 14 days. Thanks to AirScrape, this maintenance work is no longer necessary and the system can run through. It also works for all other bulk handling industries like Cement, Gypsum, Lime, Glass and more. For more infos, send us a mail.

Non-stop clean innovation Transfer points now spillage- and dust free
Non-stop clean innovation
Transfer points now spillage- and dust free With the innovative AirScrape seal skirting, spills and dust at transfer points in conveyor systems and belt damage are a thing of the past. In the minerals and mining industry, contamination of conveyor systems and dust generation during operation are a well-known problem. Conventional conveyor skirting at belt transfer points can help here, but even friction forces quickly wear them out; they lose their effect and also damage the belt of the conveyor during long-term use. This in turn increases the costs for maintenance or replacement. The AirScrape from ScrapeTec Trading Ltd. is quite different. It represents one of the rare innovations in this industrial sector, is virtually maintenance-free, increases the service life of conveyor belts and permanently saves cleaning efforts. Beyond the chute and conveyor belt, the AirScrape ensures more cleanliness. AirScrape. The operating principle is in the name If you see the AirScrape side seal in use, you can quickly
