Customer-Focused Drive Feed Scrapers
 ✖  |
Feed alley scrapers from Mensch Manufacturing are in a constant state of change as customers provide feedback and suggest improvements. According to Noah Mensch, the company has been making the scrapers for many years and has made many changes over that period.
“We’ve made big changes to the frames and how they’re welded to extend their use life,” says Mensch. “The biggest change was to offer either plastic or rubber wear blades.”
Mensch scrapers have a universal bucket attachment and come in stationary, rotating, and V-blade designs. Stationary blades are available in 6 ft., 6 in. and 7 ft., 11 in. widths. The 7-ft., 5-in. rotating blade moves feed to the left or right and is available in hydraulic or manual models. The V-blade has a 7 ft., 11 in. width. They range in price from $3,735 for the stationary blade to $4,350 for the V-blade.
Mensch notes that the plastic and rubber blades take the vibration out of scraping and are gentler on the concrete. They’re also rust-free in the highly corrosive environment.
“Some clients prefer the plastic for its slippery nature, but it doesn’t have the wear characteristics of rubber,” says Mensch. “The rubber holds onto the feed more than the plastic, but that’s not a problem at higher speeds. Some like the simplicity of the stationary blade, while others like the hydraulically controlled rotating blade or the V-blade.”
Mensch encourages customer feedback, especially any changes they make to the company’s products. “We’re constantly looking for ways to improve our products and help customers solve problems,” he says.
