Where Troughed Belt Conveyors Are Used:

Rollcon troughed belt conveyors are ideal for various industries, including:

  • • Mining For handling ores, coal, and minerals.
  • • Cement For transporting raw materials and finished products.
  • • Power Plants For handling coal, fly ash, and other by-products.
  • • Agriculture For conveying grains, seeds, and fertilizers.
  • • Ports and Terminals For unloading bulk materials.
  • • Recycling For moving recyclable materials like metals and plastics.

Challenges in Bulk Material Handling :

  • 1. Wear and Tear Pulleys face constant friction and heavy loads, leading to premature wear, increasing maintenance costs and downtime.
  • 2. Energy Losses Excessive friction results in energy losses, reducing system efficiency and raising operational costs.
  • 3. Imbalance Unbalanced pulleys cause vibrations and uneven wear, shortening their lifespan and increasing downtime.
  • 4. Grip and Wear Resistance Insufficient grip or wear resistance can lead to inefficient handling of materials, especially with abrasive or heavy substances.
  • 5. Space and Specialized Requirements Some systems require custom pulley sizes or materials, and limited space complicates standard solutions.
