Conveying sand, gravel and aggregates

Aggregate is the harshest material there is for a conveyor: abrasive, with impact load at the feed point and high volume per hour. What holds up to it is a reinforced structure and a belt profile that increases the volume conveyed per meter.

  • Belt for abrasive material and impact at the feed point
  • V profile to carry more volume per meter
  • Structure for heavy-duty yard work

What holds the operation back

The problems that show up in this industry

Before talking about machines, it is worth looking at where the process loses time, material and people.

Abrasion that eats the belt

Gravel and sand wear out belt and rollers quickly when the specification is generic. The right choice of belt and lining changes the replacement interval.

Not enough volume per meter

A flat belt wastes capacity with granular material. The V profile increases the load section without widening the equipment.

Impact in the feeding zone

Material falling concentrated on one point breaks the belt and misaligns the structure. This is solved in the hopper design.

Fines and grading

Separating fines before the next stage avoids rework and improves the final product.

Material flow

Where each machine comes in

The typical path of the material in this industry, from arrival to dispatch.

01

Feeding

Hopper receiving the material with a protected impact zone.

02

Conveying

V belt gaining volume per meter.

03

Grading

Separation of fines before the next stage.

04

Elevation

Height gain to silo or storage bay.

05

Loading

Discharge into the truck with mobile yard equipment.

Industry questions

Questions that come up before buying

The V profile forms a larger load section than a flat belt of the same width, which increases the volume conveyed per meter and reduces spillage at the sides.

It depends on the particle size and moisture of the material. Above a certain incline the material slides and a cleated belt is needed. The conveyor calculator on the website gives an estimate and engineering confirms it.

The structure and protection specification is defined according to exposure. State whether the operation is outdoors in the quote request.
