Alley Scraper Groove
When installing automated alley scrapers a groove is needed down the center of the alley for the length of the barn.
The groove allows the cable, rope, chain or hydraulic track to remain below the surface of the concrete preventing hoof damage and tripping hazards.
It also prevents the scraper head from binding from an uneven load.
We can cut grooves for any alley scraper application from 1 inch for a rope to 5 inches for a hydraulic track.
Benefits of machine cut groove:
- Little down time. We can work with your schedule to insure as little disruption as possible
- Custom dimensions
- Smooth finish for increased life out of your equipment
- We use a laser guided system to insure an accurate and straight groove for optimal operation of your scraping system
