New Roller Solves Belt
Carryback Problems
Superior Industries offers a new solution
for removing carryback material from the
return side of a conveyor belt system—the
Urathon Beater Roll. The unit’s design
couples a common, CEMA-rated return
idler and a series of urethane lobed discs;
in operation, these discs cause mild vibration,
which dislodges carryback material
from the conveyor belt. According to
the manufacturer, ideal installation locations
include above a stockpile, screen or
bin so the ejected material hits a target
point. Urathon Beater Rolls can be purchased
as full, preassembled idlers or individual
urethane-lobed discs. Each disc
is coupled with a hose clamp for assembly
onto existing idlers in the fi eld. The
discs are manufactured to fi t to CEMA C
and D class return idlers in diameters of
4, 5 and 6 in.
