Scrapers

Construction scrapers are large, powerful machines used mainly to remove existing ground materials to level surfaces.

In construction, these machines are generally used to level softer aggregates like gravel, earth, or topsoil. Some scrapers are even capable of scraping up and removing existing material, loading it into a hopper, and transporting it to other locations.

But these machines are not only used for construction. They can also be used for a wide range of agricultural, industrial, and mining applications or wherever else surfaces need to be leveled.

Getting to Know Different Types of Scrapers

Scrapers come in a variety of different sizes and configurations, ranging from standalone, self-propelled units to separate machines that need to be hauled or towed behind a truck or tractor.

• Self-Propelled Construction Scrapers - These are generally the largest and most powerful type on industrial sites. Self-propelled scrapers, like the Caterpillar 627F or 623E, have built-in diesel-powered motors and steering mechanisms that allow an operator to control the vehicle from within.
• Trailer Scrapers - Towable machines, like the Ashland 175XL2 and the Los Antonios TH61, are designed to be mounted to and pulled behind a separate tractor, bulldozer, or other type of large vehicle. These are often smaller scrapers but can be less maneuverable than self-propelled construction scrapers.
• Conveyor-Style Scrapers - Other types, like the Rabaud Rotograde 755-A01, are designed with an in-built conveyor belt system. The conveyor enables the operator to remove existing material from the ground and easily load it into a trailer for removal, all as part of a single, streamlined process.
