QC1™ Cleaner HD Max

The Martin® QC1™ Cleaner HD Max features a sturdy urethane blade designed for the effective removal of material from belt conveyors handling coal, ore, and other heavy bulk materials.

EXTENDED WEAR LIFE

The unique blade profile ensures the cleaner maintains the most efficient cleaning angle across its entire service life, reducing carryback and maintenance frequency.

THREE-PIECE MAINFRAME

Designed with a rugged three-piece mainframe that simplifies installation and allows for easier handling in restricted conveyor structures.

HIGH-PRESSURE TENSIONING

Utilises the durable and rugged Martin® Spring Tensioner XHD to maintain consistent cleaning pressure against the belt.

Product Overview

The Martin® QC1™ Cleaner HD Max is a robust evolution in primary belt cleaning, specifically built for demanding industrial environments. By utilising a high-volume urethane blade, the system provides a dependable solution for sites handling abrasive materials that typically cause rapid wear in standard cleaners.

The system is designed with ease of maintenance in mind, using common mounting dimensions that simplify retrofits or upgrades from existing systems. Whether your operation is moving coal or iron ore, the HD Max ensures maximum material recovery while protecting your belt and pulley infrastructure from the damaging effects of carryback.

Applications

The Martin® QC1™ Cleaner HD Max is specifically engineered for heavy-duty primary cleaning in high-tonnage mining and industrial settings, including underground and corrosive environments.

This versatile system operates reliably in service temperatures ranging from -34°C to 82°C and is fully compatible with reversing belts or systems experiencing roll-back. It provides high-efficiency cleaning for belt widths up to 3000 mm and is rated for belt speeds of up to 5.1 m/s on pulley diameters between 600 mm and 760 mm.

How the QC1™ Cleaner HD Max Works

The system operates by utilising a unique blade profile that automatically maintains the optimal cleaning angle as the urethane wears down. This ensures that cleaning performance does not degrade over time, which is common with standard primary cleaners.

The three-piece mainframe provides the structural rigidity required for heavy-duty applications while allowing for a more flexible installation process. Tension is maintained by the Martin® Spring Tensioner XHD, which stores mechanical energy to keep the blade firmly seated against the belt surface, even when encountering mechanical splices.

Operational Benefits

  • Underground Approved

    Certified and safe for use in underground mining applications throughout Australia.

  • Mechanical Splice Friendly

    Designed to accommodate mechanical splices safely, ensuring the cleaner does not snag or damage the belt.

  • Corrosion Resistant

    Engineered to perform in highly corrosive industrial conditions, suitable for salt and chemical processing.

  • Flexible Mounting

    Uses common mounting dimensions to ensure ease of installation for both new projects and site retrofits.

FAQs

Martin® QC1™ HD Max blades are available in widths that are 150 mm (6 inches) or 300 mm (12 inches) less than the actual belt width to ensure optimal coverage of the material path.

The three-piece mainframe design allows the system to be installed more easily in tight spaces or on conveyors with restricted access, as it can be handled in smaller, more manageable sections during assembly.

Yes. Martin® high-performance urethanes are available in various colour-coded formulations to suit specific application needs, such as high-temperature or chemical-resistant environments.

Absolutely. Because the profile maintains a constant cleaning angle throughout its wear life, the cleaner requires fewer manual adjustments and provides more consistent cleaning results than standard blades.
