Steep Incline Belt Conveyor System

Application

Thermal Power Plants

This conveyor system is ideal for transporting coal and other fuels from mines or stockyards to boiler rooms, ensuring a stable fuel supply for power generation. Its steep incline capability reduces the footprint and equipment required for vertical conveying. It can also be used to handle byproducts such as ash, moving them efficiently to designated storage or treatment facilities.

Building Materials Industry

In cement plants, the conveyor is used to transport raw materials like limestone, clay, iron ore, and coal to production areas, as well as finished cement products to silos or loading stations. In brick and tile factories, it conveys raw materials such as clay and shale, as well as finished products, increasing automation and production efficiency.

Chemical Industry

The conveyor handles various chemical materials and products, including ores, fertilizers, and soda ash. It supports the transport of powdered, granular, or lumpy materials, adapting well to the diverse requirements of chemical production lines.

Mining Industry

In both metallic and non-metallic mining operations, steep incline conveyors are used for transporting ore, waste rock, and other materials. Whether from underground shafts or open-pit mines, the system can be customized to navigate complex terrain while minimizing transport costs and labor intensity.

Coal Mining

Primarily used to carry coal from underground mining sites to surface processing plants or storage areas, this system operates stably at large inclination angles. It is also suitable for transporting waste rock (gangue) from underground to above-ground disposal locations.

Concrete Batching Plants

It efficiently conveys sand and gravel aggregates from stockpiles to batching systems. It also handles powdered materials such as cement and fly ash in sealed conveying modes to prevent dust emissions, improving environmental safety and protecting worker health.

Metallurgical Industry

In steel plants, the system is used to move raw materials such as iron ore, coke, and limestone, as well as hot iron and steel billets. In non-ferrous metal refineries, it supports the handling of metal ores and products, ensuring smooth material flow through production processes.

Advantages

Wide Conveying Angle (30°–90°)

Unlike conventional belt conveyors limited to inclines under 18°, the Steep Incline Belt Conveyor handles slopes from 30° to 90°, allowing significant height changes in confined spaces. This results in reduced equipment footprint and lower construction costs.

High Conveying Capacity

By adopting wider belts and higher belt speeds, the system can be tailored for conveying capacities from 50 to 500 tons per hour or more, meeting the demands of large-scale production environments.

Compact Structural Design

This conveyor features a space-saving design with options like cleated belts, patterned belts, or corrugated sidewall belts. It requires fewer intermediate supports and simpler routing, making installation and maintenance easier.

Versatile Material Handling

Adaptable to a variety of materials—powdered, granular, or lumpy—the conveyor can be customized for specific operational needs. It handles sticky or moist substances with ease and can be designed with different belt materials, drive types, and protective systems.

Stable Operation

Advanced drive systems and tensioning mechanisms ensure uniform belt tension and minimize slippage or misalignment. The system is equipped with safety features such as anti-deviation, anti-slip, and overload protection devices to ensure smooth and safe operation.

Environmentally Friendly

Energy-efficient drive systems and enclosed transport configurations reduce energy consumption and prevent dust and spillage. This helps meet modern industrial environmental standards and creates a cleaner, safer workplace.
