Vortex Sweepout Assemblies

Stronger. Smarter. Built to Outlast.

DURA TEMP VORTEX Sweepout Assembly was created in direct response to customer demand for a more rugged, efficient alternative to an OEM skeletonized version. Designed to outperform OEM sweepout systems, VORTEX extends wear life, simplifies maintenance, and reduces parts inventory with a universal left/right design.

Originally built specifically for servo-driven pusher systems, the VORTEX design has since evolved for use with other IS machine platforms. It seamlessly integrates with vertical pocket air systems and offers fully customizable contact zones using proven DURA TEMP high-temperature molded composites or stainless-steel braid SSB.
