QC1+™ Cleaner PV

The Martin® QC1+™ Cleaner PV is a patented evolution in belt cleaner technology designed to help your operation achieve higher productivity while reducing costs. It is guaranteed to provide the highest performance and the lowest cost of ownership of any urethane pre-cleaner on the market.

CARP TECHNOLOGY

Manufactured with Martin’s unique Constant Angle Radial Pressure (CARP) technology, the curved blade design ensures superior cleaning and minimal carryback.

STRONGEST MAINFRAME

Engineered with the strongest mainframe in the industry, providing a rugged and stable platform for high-performance cleaning in tough conditions.

CONSISTENT PRESSURE

The patented blade design maintains consistent contact with the belt and constant cleaning pressure as it wears, extending its effective service life.

Product Overview

The Martin® QC1+™ Cleaner PV represents a fundamental shift in efficiency for primary belt cleaning. By re-engineering the manufacturing process to be faster and more efficient, Martin has lowered the cost to purchase without compromising on quality. The overall cost of maintenance is significantly reduced because the blades are designed to last longer than standard alternatives.

Utilising a patented curved blade profile, the system ensures that the blade simply cleans the belt better. This design allows the cleaner to adapt to the belt surface continuously, maintaining optimal pressure throughout the blade’s wear cycle. This result is a highly reliable cleaning solution that protects your conveyor infrastructure while maximising material recovery.

Applications

The Martin® QC1+™ Cleaner PV is specifically engineered for primary cleaning on small-diameter pulleys in demanding mining and industrial settings, including underground and corrosive environments.

This versatile system is designed to operate reliably in service temperatures ranging from -34°C to 82°C and is fully compatible with reversing belts or systems prone to roll-back. It provides high-efficiency cleaning for belt widths up to 2000 mm and is rated for belt speeds of up to 2.5 m/s on pulley diameters between 300 mm and 400 mm.

How the QC1+™ Cleaner PV Works

The system operates by utilising Martin’s patented CARP technology to ensure the blade maintains a consistent cleaning angle throughout its entire wear life. As the urethane blade wears down, the radial pressure remains constant, preventing the drop-off in cleaning efficiency common in standard pre-cleaners. This is achieved through a specific blade curvature that allows the tip to stay in the optimal position against the belt surface.

The heavy-duty mainframe provides the structural rigidity required to support this pressure, ensuring the blade does not chatter or skip even when encountering mechanical splices.

Operational Benefits

  • Underground Approved

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

  • Mechanical Splice Friendly

    Specifically designed to accommodate mechanical splices safely without damaging the belt or the cleaner.

  • Corrosion Resistant

    Engineered to perform in highly corrosive conditions, making it ideal for salt, chemical, and mineral processing.

  • Reversing Belt Compatible

    Maintains contact and performance even on conveyors that require reversing or experience roll-back.

FAQs

CARP (Constant Angle Radial Pressure) is a patented technology that ensures the blade maintains the same cleaning angle and pressure against the belt as it wears. This results in more consistent cleaning performance and a longer effective blade life compared to traditional cleaners.

Yes. The Martin® QC1+™ Cleaner PV is specifically engineered to accommodate mechanical splices safely, ensuring that your belt remains protected while maintaining optimum cleaning results.

Martin has streamlined the manufacturing process to reduce the purchase price and re-engineered the blade design to last longer. Fewer blade changes and a lower initial investment result in the lowest cost of ownership for a urethane pre-cleaner.

No. The system is engineered to provide a vibration-free rolling action, which protects the conveyor structure and ensures consistent belt contact.

The Roller Tracker™ is designed for ease of installation, allowing maintenance teams to retrofit the unit to standard conveyor stringers with minimal downtime.
