Products Description

Bellian Air Slide Conveyor, also known as air chute, is a pneumatic conveying equipment used for horizontal transportation of dry powdery materials. It uses low-pressure air to fluidize the materials, making them flow like liquid along the inclined chute. Our air slide conveyor has no moving parts, which means no wear, low maintenance cost and long service life. It is widely used in cement plants, power plants and other industries for transporting cement powder and fly ash.

Working Principle

The air slide conveyor mainly consists of upper and lower casings separated by a porous air-permeable layer. Low-pressure air is blown into the lower casing by a fan, and passes through the porous layer to fluidize the materials in the upper casing. The fluidized materials flow down the inclined chute (usually 3-10°) under the action of gravity. The whole transportation process is closed, no dust leakage, and the energy consumption is very low.

Very low energy consumption, only 1/10 to 1/20 of other conveying equipment
Sealed structure, no dust leakage, environmental protection and clean
Simple structure, easy installation and low investment cost
Multiple inlet and outlet ports can be set according to process requirements
Low noise, stable operation, can realize automatic control

Application Scenarios

Widely used in cement plants, power plants, chemical plants, building materials plants and other industries. Suitable for horizontal transportation of various dry powdery materials with moisture content below 1% and particle size below 3mm, such as cement powder, fly ash, gypsum powder, talc powder, limestone powder, etc. It is the most economical and efficient equipment for transporting large quantities of powder materials.

Buying Guide

When choosing an air slide conveyor, you should consider: 1. The type and properties of materials (must be dry and free-flowing); 2. The required transportation capacity; 3. The transportation distance and layout; 4. The available air source. We will recommend the most suitable model according to your specific requirements.

FAQ

What materials can be transported by air slide conveyor?

Air slide conveyor is suitable for transporting dry, free-flowing powdery materials with moisture content below 1% and particle size below 3mm. It is not suitable for transporting wet, viscous or granular materials.

What is the maximum transportation distance of the air slide conveyor?

The maximum transportation distance of our air slide conveyor can reach 100 meters. For longer distance transportation, we can design multiple air supply points to ensure stable fluidization of materials.

What is the required inclination of the air slide conveyor?

The air slide conveyor usually requires an inclination of 3-10° to ensure the materials flow smoothly. For materials with good fluidity, smaller inclination can be used; for materials with poor fluidity, larger inclination is required.

How to maintain the air slide conveyor?

Regular maintenance includes checking the air-permeable layer for blockage or damage, cleaning the filter of the fan, and checking the air pressure and flow rate. The air-permeable layer usually needs to be replaced every 2-3 years depending on the operating conditions.
