Central Chain Bucket Elevators

RUD Scrapper Bar is a lightweight high-strength scrapper bar engineered to improve conveyor efficiency and extend chain life in material handling systems. By reducing absorbed power and lowering stress on chain links, this chain bar helps prevent sudden failure and lowers maintenance frequency. The reduced load on the drive system increases overall reliability and decreases operating costs. Easy assembly and disassembly speed inspections and repairs while fewer maintenance interventions boost uptime. Compatible with common conveyors and available in multiple sizes, this industrial handling equipment offers a dependable, low-maintenance solution for continuous material handling operations across industries and protects downstream components.

How does the RUD Scrapper Bar work?

The scrapper bar is designed to remove built-up material from chain flights and conveyor surfaces with minimal absorbed power. Its lightweight construction reduces inertia while enhanced material strength resists fatigue and avoids sudden failure. By lowering the stress transmitted to the chain, the chain bar decreases wear on links and sprockets and helps extend overall chain life. The profile and mounting interfaces are engineered for easy assembly and disassembly so inspections and replacement are fast. Less maintenance work and reduced power draw translate to improved system reliability and longer service intervals.

Industry Applications

• Coal, minerals and bulk handling conveyors where build-up must be cleared to maintain throughput.
• Cement and aggregate plants using conveyors that benefit from reduced chain wear and lower energy use.
• Material handling equipment in ports and terminals where frequent clean-off and quick servicing are required.
• Steel, recycling and heavy industry conveyors that need rugged industrial handling equipment to run reliably in demanding conditions.
