Scrapers are one of the heavy machinery. It is used especially in road works to distribute the material evenly and uniformly to the road. It is also used for filling works, irrigation channel opening works, leveling and removal of the top layer in mines. In various earthmoving works, there is a lot of work to do with scrapers between heavy machinery such as excavators, loaders and dozers.

Some scrapers are used for scraping the soil into thin layers and spreading it to a certain distance. They are usually towed by a tractor with a crawler or rubber wheel. There are also varieties taken by dozers. Generally used in road or airport constructions for filling and leveling works.

Since scrapers are heavy duty machines, employees need to be healthy and safe in terms of safety of life and property. Therefore, periodic checks and examinations are mandatory.

The Regulation on Health and Safety Conditions in the Use of Work Equipment contains the minimum requirements for the health and safety of the construction machinery and equipment used in the workplace. Details of the Annex to this Regulation, Maintenance, Repair and Periodic Inspection (Annex 3) are provided. In any case, however, regular inspections of the scrapers are required at least once a year.

Our company regularly controls and inspects scrapers within the framework of periodic controls of construction machinery.is in compliance with the standards and test methods published by the domestic and foreign institutions. Here are a few standards that are based on this:

• TS 1230-2 ISO 7129 Construction excavators - Inserts for tractors, graders and scrapers - Main shapes and basic dimensions
• TS ISO 10268 Construction and excavation machines - Speed ​​reducers for tippers and crawler scrapers - Performance tests
• TS EN 474-7 + A1 Construction and excavation machinery - Safety - Part 7: Features for scrapers
• TS 1230-1 Construction and excavation machinery - Blades cutting edges (for graders, dozers, scrapers)
• TS 9724 ISO 7133 Construction and Excavating Machines - Tractor Scrapers - Terms and Commercial Properties
