SERVICE 02 / CONVEYINGTHE ROUTE BETWEEN TWO POINTS

Move it without
moving the problem.

Every conveying configuration trades something — footprint, containment, gentleness, cost. The right one depends on the material, the route and what happens at each end of it.

DISTANCE → ELEVATION → TRANSFER

CONFIGURATIONS CONSIDERED

Six starting points
for the conversation.

These are application examples, not a fixed catalogue — the right configuration is selected against the design basis of each project.

Filter by your duty in the Flow Finder

Belt conveyors

The workhorse for moving lumpy or granular material over distance and incline at high tonnage.

Pipe conveyors

The belt folds into a closed tube to contain dust and spillage and to follow curves in the route.

Screw conveyors

Compact, enclosed conveying and metering over shorter runs, including awkward or sticky materials.

Airslide conveyors

Aerated, gravity-assisted transport for dry, fluidisable powders with very few moving parts.

Bucket elevators

Vertical lift for bulk solids where the footprint is tight and the height is significant.

Roller, shuttle & tripper systems

Distribute material along a line of bunkers, bins or stockpiles from a single feed point.

ALSO CONSIDERED

Beyond the
six above.

Roller & slat / drag-chain conveyors

For duties outside standard belt or screw configurations, including higher-temperature or more abrasive material.

Submerged handling

Where the application calls for it — assessed case by case against the material and process.
