The sidewall belt conveyor is the best choice for high-angle transportation mainly due to its unique structural design and comprehensive performance advantages, which can effectively address the key problems of traditional transportation equipment in large-angle or vertical transportation.
Sidewall Belt Conveyor Unique Structural Design
The Sidewall Belt Conveyor is mainly composed of components such as the drive device, drive pulley, bend pulley, sidewall conveyor belt, rollers, pressure belt pulley, tension device, cleaning device, frame, material guiding chute, discharge chute, electrical and safety protection devices, etc.
For high-end demand customers, we will also equip an intelligent monitoring system to realize real-time monitoring of the equipment's operating status and automatic control, helping customers achieve intelligent operation and maintenance.
The traction component and the carrying component of the sidewall belt conveyor are a continuous rubber conveyor belt without ends, which contains a sidewall and a cleat. The rubber belt is wound around the drive pulley and the bend pulley at both ends of the frame to form a closed loop. When the drive device drives the drive pulley to rotate, the friction between the drive pulley and the rubber belt drives the rubber belt to run along the predetermined path; the conveyed materials are added to the rubber belt through the guide chute, and the materials are transported to the discharge device at the head along with the movement of the rubber belt, and finally are discharged from the discharge port under the action of centrifugal force and gravity.
Sidewall Belt Conveyor Core Advantages
90°Vertical Conveying Capacity
Through the combined design of sidewall and cleat, it achieves a maximum 90° vertical conveying capacity. Compared with traditional belt conveyors (which are usually limited to within 18°), it can save over 70% of the floor space.
Large Conveying Capacity
The conveyor belt adopts a "base belt + sidewall + cleat" combined design: the side guards prevent the materials from sliding off, and the middle cleats separate the material flow to ensure a stable conveying process. Compared with traditional belt conveyors, its conveying capacity can be increased by more than 30%, and it is particularly suitable for the continuous transportation of bulk materials such as sand, gravel, and minerals.
High Stability
The Sidewall Belt Conveyor operates reliably, without the chain-knotting, chain-swaying, and chain-breaking problems that often occur in buried scraper conveyors, nor does it have the slipping and bucket-dropping problems that frequently happen in bucket elevators.
Flexible Layout
It can be arranged in various forms such as horizontal, inclined, curved, and vertical according to the needs of the site, with wide adaptability.
Low Energy Consumption
The actual measurement data shows that when transporting the same amount of materials, the energy consumption is 35% lower than that of the bucket elevator. Its self-cleaning return belt design reduces material adhesion, and the maintenance cycle is extended to 6-8 months.
Compatible With Various Conveying Systems
The large-angle belt conveyor can have horizontal conveying sections of any length set at the head and tail of the machine, facilitating its integration with other processing equipment to form a complete production line system, such as a mixing station.
