The Really BASIC Fundamentals Of The Incline Belt Conveyor

Bulk materials are dry, solid materials usually in granular form, like salt or sand. They need special storage to keep them from spilling or getting contaminated, especially if they’re edible like sugar. To move these materials around, you need specific conveyors like rubber or metal belts, screw conveyors, tubular conveyors, and pneumatic conveyors. For going up, the incline belt conveyor is super efficient!

When moving bulk materials between floors, incline belt conveyors are the way to go! These conveyors come in two types: cleated belts for sealed containers and flat belts for other products. For sealed containers, like the ones we’ve discussed, an incline cleated belt conveyor is the best choice. The cleats on the belt act as anchors, ensuring the containers stay put and don’t tumble off during transport. It’s a fun and efficient way to get the job done!
