Mining Conveyor Application

Conveyor equipment considerations for abrasive material, impact loading, dust and continuous-duty mining operations.

Mining Conveyor Application

Overview

Mining conveyor applications move ore, overburden and processed minerals through demanding loading, transfer and discharge points. Equipment selection starts with the actual material, route and operating duty.

Typical Operating Challenges

  • Abrasive material and carryback
  • Impact loading at transfer points
  • Dust and contaminated operating conditions
  • Continuous duty and maintenance access

Conveyor Requirements

Confirm material characteristics, required capacity, belt width, belt speed, route, incline, operating hours and environmental conditions.

Recommended Equipment

A project scope may include a mining belt conveyor, troughing and impact idlers, drive and non-drive pulleys, belt tracking and belt cleaning equipment.

Engineering Inputs Required

Provide the route or general arrangement, material data, capacity, lift, loading arrangement, belt information and applicable interface drawings.

Custom Manufacturing Options

Manufacturing can be reviewed against approved drawings, dimensions, interfaces, belt width, pulley geometry and roller arrangement.
