Paper Mill Sludge
Paper mill sludge is wet, sticky, and heavy — it sticks to flat belts, carries back, and turns transfer points into maintenance items.
The material
What it does to equipment
- Sticky, high-moisture material that adheres to belt surfaces and carries back.
- Steep rises from presses and dryers to storage or load-out.
- Containment of dripping, messy material through the plant.
The fit
How we move it
CamWall™
Contained cross-section keeps wet material on the belt, not the floor.
CamFlex™
Carry-and-release geometry for sticky, caking material.
In the process
Where we've handled it
- Press & dryer discharge
- High-incline elevating
- Truck loading & unloading
- In-plant transfer conveying
Throughput and incline capability depend on the material condition and the layout. We publish numbers only when they're verified — ask an engineer what this material does on a Cambelt belt.
