Martin Engineering at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026

The global leader in belt conveyor accessories and bulk material flow technology, Martin Engineering, is exhibiting at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 and will unveil several new products. Visit the friendly Martin team at booth #C30148 in the Central Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center on March 3 to 7. Developed at the company’s Center for Innovation (CFI), the latest heavy-duty accessories, from belt sealing systems to state-of-the-art flow technology, will be on display. Martin experts will be ready to provide detailed information and demonstrate how these technologies can benefit a wide range of bulk handling applications, enabling safer, more efficient operations.

“We’re excited to showcase our latest technology-enabled products and services, developed and proven in some of the most demanding real-world conditions alongside our key customers in the aggregate mining industry,” said Chris Schmelzer, Director of National Sales for the U.S. & Canada at Martin Engineering. “Trade show attendees will have the opportunity to learn more about our newest solutions, designed to support clean, safe, and productive material handling throughout every stage of their process, from the pit to the finished product.”

Innovative dust & spillage control

Across bulk handling sectors, conveyor dust emissions remain a persistent issue. During material transfer, dust and spillage are best restricted in a sealed environment with controlled airflow, known as passive containment. To better achieve this, Martin Engineering is previewing the:

Martin^® Skirtboard Liner – Installed inside conveyor transfer point skirtboards, Martin^® Skirtboard Liners absorb impact and abrasion by creating a dam to shield the sealing system from the weight of the material load, prolonging the life of the seal. Skirtboard Liners feature a steel plate molded inside the urethane to prevent bond issues. The unique T-slot mounting interface allows the liner to be adjusted from outside the chute wall, eliminating the need for confined space entry. Liners are also stackable to line higher drop chutes.

Martin^® ApronSeal™ Urethane Skirting – Featuring a durable one- or two-piece dual-seal assembly, ApronSeal™ Urethane Skirting provides reliable containment of material fines. The dual-system design pairs a primary urethane seal with a self‑adjusting secondary outer flap to trap dust within the enclosure. Engineered for minimal external maintenance, it performs effectively at belt speeds up to 4.5 m/s while requiring only 50 mm of free belt area.

Martin^® A.I.R. Control™ Dust Curtains – These modular urethane curtains are individually adjustable dust control solutions engineered for conveyor transfer points. Designed for both passive and active dust control applications, they create controlled recirculation zones within the enclosure that significantly reduce dust emissions compared to conventional slit rubber curtains. A.I.R. Control™ Dust Curtains are adjusted or replaced from outside the enclosure, eliminating confined space entry and reducing service time to just minutes.

The next step in flow technology

Visitors to the booth will see how Martin^® Air Cannons and Industrial Vibrators can significantly improve the material flow through a system. Production choke points – chutes, silos, hoppers, truck dumps, and stockpiles – require strategically placed flow accessories to prevent unscheduled downtime and improve safety by eliminating manual clearing.

N2^® Air Cannon Intelligence System – This smart system monitors every connected cannon several times a day. It detects misfires and plugged nozzles, measures blast efficiency, and tracks pressure and temperature to prevent downtime from clogging. A cloud-based dashboard shows system health, performance trends, and alerts, allowing predictive maintenance that reduces manual inspections and improves safety.

Expanded Lineup of Electric Vibrators – Electric vibrators drive material separation in screening and facilitate flow in conveyor transfer points. Beyond transport, they prevent obstructions in hoppers, chutes, and silos by loosening buildup, improving efficiency, and eliminating the safety risks of manual clearing. Martin’s latest electric models deliver enhanced power and efficiency without sacrificing their renowned durability. Engineered for excellence, Martin’s electric vibrators come with an industry-leading 3-year warranty.

New belt cleaning options

Whether due to application or material requirements, many operators prefer cartridge-based non-urethane conveyor belt cleaners. In response to customer requests, Martin Engineering has rethought popular belt cleaner concepts and improved them to better meet those preferences with more durable, longer-lasting models.

Martin^® H1 Primary Belt Cleaner – This primary cleaner is built with stainless steel components and abrasion-resistant tungsten carbide tips, making it one of the most cost-efficient cleaning solutions in the industry. It is suitable for most material types and highly effective on abrasive materials and high-speed conveyor belts.

Martin^® P2 Secondary Belt Cleaner – Built with precision-cast stainless steel components, these tungsten carbide-tipped secondary/tertiary cleaners offer high performance by effectively removing abrasive materials from high-speed conveyor belts. Designed to remove leftover fines, reducing spillage and airborne dust emissions.

Martin^® R2 Secondary Belt Cleaner – Suitable for reversing belts, trippers, and shuttles, the R2 is a secondary/tertiary cleaner made with stainless steel components and features tungsten carbide-tips. It offers the same robust performance in rough bulk-handling environments as the P2.
