Traditionally, tungsten carbide blades were only compatible with vulcanized conveyor belts. However, thanks to technological advancements in certain blade options, they are now more compatible with mechanically spliced belts as well.
Why use tungsten carbide scraper blades on conveyor belt cleaners?
Tungsten carbide blades deliver exceptional cleaning efficiency. Compared to many other types of scraper blades, tungsten carbide offers a lower lifetime cost due to its durability.
2. Are all tungsten carbide scraper blades the same?
• Absolutely not! Carbide is a composite material consisting of carbide particles and a binding metal, providing an extremely hard and wear-resistant material for conveyor belt cleaner blades. There are several ways to alter this mixture.
• Some low-cost carbides may have poor wear resistance, resulting in shorter blade life. Others may have low impact resistance, causing them to chip and potentially damage the conveyor belt.
• Due to inferior production processes, many low-quality blades exhibit issues such as porosity or binder pooling. Low-priced carbide is not always cost-effective.
II. Why choose tungsten carbide scraper blades?
We need blades with the following characteristics:
• Higher cleaning efficiency: When properly tensioned, thin and hard blades deliver superior cleaning performance.
• Excellent value for money: When considering lifetime cost versus initial cost, the durability and low maintenance requirements of tungsten carbide blades often justify the price difference over their service life.
• Versatility: Some designs are compatible with mechanical belt fasteners.
Low-quality carbide may suffer from the following defects:
• Impure grades
• Binder pooling
• Coarse microstructure
• Porosity in the structure
• Exceptional cleaning efficiency is another key feature of tungsten carbide, making it an ideal choice for applications demanding high performance.
• Conveyor belts carrying highly abrasive materials often require these wear-resistant blades.
• Reduced maintenance is a major reason many users choose carbide-equipped blades. In applications where less durable blade materials lead to unacceptable wear rates, frequent tension adjustments, and increased maintenance costs, carbide blades prove to be a worthwhile investment.
High-grade tungsten carbide scraper blades are worth the investment:
Huaxin Carbide’s tungsten carbide scraper blades are made from high-quality carbide, free from impurities, binder pooling, porosity, and coarse microstructure. This superior composite material ensures our blades are long-lasting and impact-resistant.
Huaxin Carbide has conducted extensive research and invested years of testing into designing and manufacturing tungsten carbide scraper blades for demanding applications.
Through carefully selected standardized ASTM wear tests, Huaxin Carbide’s carbide blades have been proven to last approximately three times longer than other materials in conveyor belt cleaner applications.
