Martin Engineering

Fluent Conveyors partners with Martin Engineering, an American manufacturer of belt cleaning, transfer point, and bulk flow technology. Our network of industry partners is how we build custom conveyors that run cleaner, spill less, and efficiently move material through every transfer.

About Martin Engineering

Martin Engineering was founded in 1944 by Edwin F. Peterson as a small machine shop in Neponset, Illinois. Peterson's first product, the Vibrolator ball vibrator, set the company's focus on moving bulk material more efficiently. Over the following decades, Martin developed the first low-pressure air cannon and a family of engineered belt cleaners. It now runs research and manufacturing at its Center for Innovation in Neponset. The company holds dozens of patents across belt cleaning, flow aids, and dust control, and serves mining, cement, steel, power, aggregate, and recycling operations worldwide.

What Martin Engineering is known for

Martin Engineering designs and builds the accessories that keep conveyors clean, contained, and flowing:

Belt Cleaners: primary and secondary belt scrapers, including the CleanScrape system and the patented CARP constant-angle blade, which reduce carryback at the head pulley.

Transfer Point Solutions: impact cradles and impact beds, belt support, and skirting that absorb loading forces and seal the load zone.

Air Cannons: the Big Blaster low-pressure air cannon and SMART Series nozzles that clear buildup in silos, chutes, and hoppers.

Flow Aids: electric, pneumatic, and hydraulic vibrators that keep bulk material moving through bins and feeders.

Dust Management: containment, filtration, and suppression systems that control dust at transfer and discharge points.
