Carryback
Arcoplate is Proven to Reduce Carryback
Hang up is typically due to one or more of the following reasons:
- Rough Surfaces - Rough surfaces on material selected. Although the material may start off quite smooth, such as HD Poly, they may soon end up gouged, scratched therefore leading to many initiation sites for hang up to commence.
- Surface Features - Surface features, such as items protruding out impeding on the material flow, whether large or small, either part of the wear plate or added around the wear plate, lead to hang up. Traditional clad wear plate has an uneven surface, along with many cracks, leading to many initiation sites for hang up to commence from the initial installation.
The Arcoplate Solution
Arcoplate is a viable solution to the two points raised above. Arcoplate is typically supplied in the mill finish as it is already the smoothest thermo-clad plate on the market. However, for MOST mobile equipment applications Arcoplate is supplied in a polished condition.
The following attributes of Arcoplate assist in minimising hang up:
- Dense, refined metallurgical structure giving an extremely low coefficient of friction
- Resistance to indentation
- Microstructure limits extent of erosive attack
- Minimal 'off-cut' created by erosion
