Air-Slide Systems
Air-Slide conveyors are very suitable for moving fine-grained materials with very large capacity. They are mainly used in flat-bottomed high-diameter storage bins. Materials which are commonly moved with Air-Slides are Fly Ash, Alumian Silica, Sodium Sulfate, Coal, and Cement.
Operation:
- Material moves in conveyor on media that air can penetrate
- Air-slide systems are assembled in specific raked angle
- Material flow is generated by air flow which passes through the media.
Aeration bin bottoms are used to promote consistent product withdrawal from large-diameter flat- or conical-bottom storage silos. It does this by passing low-pressure air through a porous membrane media and into the bed of the material being handled. The low-pressure air is then passed up through the material in the silo, giving it a highly fluid property.
