Air-Supported Belt Conveyors
We design and manufacture air-supported belt conveyors as a durable, low-maintenance alternative to conventional idler systems. Ideal for long-distance or elevated runs, our conveyors utilise a cushion of air to reduce belt friction, lower energy consumption, and enhance system reliability. We work closely with you to ensure that our conveyors meet your site-specific and performance requirements.
- No idlers or moving parts between the tail and discharge pulley for reduced mechanical complexity
- Reduced belt friction minimises belt wear and motor horsepower requirements
- Fully enclosed and weathertight design — no need for additional conveyor enclosures
- Minimal sound emission and reduced product degradation due to smooth air-supported transport
- Compact system design eliminates the need for walkways
- Durable construction suitable for retrofitting in place of failing or high-maintenance idler systems
- Low-maintenance system with fewer wear points, ideal for continuous operation
- Long-span capability — efficiently spans extended distances at height
- Long-distance elevated transfer of dry bulk materials across sites
- Overhead conveyor runs where walkways or idlers are impractical
- Dust-sensitive environments where weathertight, enclosed conveying is required
- Noise-restricted zones such as urban-adjacent plants or processing facilities
- Grain, seed, and fertiliser handling in agricultural or feedstock operations
- Woodchip and biomass transport in energy, pellet, or timber facilities
- Mineral or aggregate conveying over large spans with minimal energy use
- Retrofitting in existing plants to replace failing or maintenance-heavy idler systems
- Chemical or corrosive material transfer where fewer moving parts reduce risk and wear
