TGN gantry-type lifting scraper

1. Working Principle

The TGN gantry-type lifting scraper operates by moving along a track system around the tank. The lifting scraper arms equipped with lifting scrapers scoop the settled sludge from the bottom of the tank and push it towards the discharge point. The gantry-style structure allows the scraper to cover the entire tank surface, making it suitable for large-area sludge removal tasks.

2. Structural Features

• Gantry-Type Drive: Powered by an electric motor and gearbox, the scraper moves smoothly along the track, ensuring reliable operation.

• Lifting Scraper Mechanism: The lifting scraper design efficiently lifts the settled sludge and pushes it to the sludge discharge point, ensuring effective sludge removal.

• Efficient Sludge Removal: The combination of scraper arms and lifting scrapers ensures thorough cleaning of the tank bottom, minimizing residual sludge.

• Corrosion-Resistant Materials: Constructed with stainless steel or corrosion-resistant coated carbon steel, the scraper is designed to withstand the corrosive environment of wastewater treatment.

• Simple Operation: The system is user-friendly and can be equipped with an automated control system for start/stop functionality and operational monitoring.

3. Applications

• Municipal Wastewater Treatment: Ideal for use in sedimentation tanks, thickening tanks, and sludge dewatering tanks in municipal wastewater treatment plants.

• Industrial Effluent Treatment: Widely used in the food, chemical, pharmaceutical, and other industries for sludge removal in wastewater treatment systems.

• Sludge Handling: Suitable for large-scale sludge removal tasks, improving the overall efficiency of the wastewater treatment process.

4. Advantages

• Efficient Sludge Removal: The lifting scraper mechanism effectively removes sludge from the tank bottom, keeping the tank floor clean.

• Stable Operation: The gantry-style drive system ensures smooth and stable operation with low failure rates.

• Energy-Efficient: Designed with low power consumption, reducing operational costs and meeting environmental standards.

• Simple Design: The compact structure is easy to install and maintain, offering long-lasting durability.

• Versatile: The scraper is adaptable for use in various tank sizes, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

5. Precautions

• Installation and Alignment: Ensure that the gantry track is level and that the scraper arms are properly aligned with the tank bottom to ensure optimal performance.

• Regular Maintenance: Regularly inspect the drive system, scraper arms, and lifting scraper components, replacing any worn or damaged parts as needed.

• Prevent Clogging: Periodically clean the sludge discharge outlet to prevent blockages and ensure smooth operation.

• Safety: Keep non-operators away from the equipment during operation, and ensure power is disconnected during maintenance.

• Environmental Adjustment: Adjust the scraper speed based on the sludge concentration and water quality to optimize performance.
