Advantages of scraper conveyor:

2. It can adapt to the needs of uneven and curved floor of coal mining faces, and can withstand vertical or horizontal bending.
3. Low body, easy to install.
4. It can also serve as a track for the operation of coal mining machines.
5. Reversible operation for handling bottom chain accidents.
6. It can be used as a fulcrum for the front section of the hydraulic support.
7. Simple structure, feeding or discharging at any point in the conveying length.
8. The enclosure is sealed to prevent dust from flying and polluting the environment when transporting materials.
9. When the tail is not provided with a casing and the scraper is inserted into the material pile, the material can be retrieved and transported by itself.
Disadvantages of scraper conveyor:
1. The no-load power consumption is relatively large, accounting for about 30% of the total power.
2. It is not suitable for long-distance transportation.
3. Improper adjustment can easily lead to chain dropping and jumping accidents.
