Conveyor belt cleaners have evolved over the last 50 years from mostly homemade designs to a wide variety of engineered solutions to suit virtually every application.
The expectations have changed over time as the relationship between health, safety and productivity and clean belts hav
While it is clear there is no single or ideal solution for conveyor belt cleaning and tensioner selection, Todd Swinderman* of Martin Engineering thinks companies need to put the due diligence hours in to make the optimal choice.

Higher production demands across all bulk handling segments require increased efficiency at the lowest cost of operation, in the safest and most effective manner possible. As conveyor systems become wider, faster and longer, more energy output and more controlled throughput will be needed. Add
Roller Tracker designed to increase performance and wear life for single-direction or reversing belts
MARTIN Engineering have introduced the new Roller Tracker, an effective return-belt tracking system that uses high-quality materials for easier maintenance and longer service life.

The global leader in bulk handling conveyor accessories has redesigned one of its most popular tail protection devices to be a lighter weight, modular unit delivered in a compact package for improved safety and convenience. The re-engineered Martin® V-Plow HD achieves the gains with
Every year around 16,650 tonnes of waste batteries, or the equivalent of around 810 million AA batteries goes to landfill in Australia.
Electronic waste in the form of discarded products ranging from mobile phones to computers and televisions accounts for one of the fastest growing waste
The world is going green, with Australia being no exception.
One of the best ways to help the environment is recycling. It extends into a complex area past separating waste materials. Recycling requires a lot of waste collection, bulk sorting, and oftentimes complex manufacturing. One t
In bulk material handling applications, a conveyor is typically a massive, complex and extremely powerful system. It’s usually constructed of rubber belting, set on rolling idlers, wrapped around large steel drums at each end and driven by a high-torque motor. As such, a conveyor presents en
