Air slide conveyors transport fine materials such as cement, fly ash and powder using only low-pressure air. They offer dust-free, low-maintenance, and energy-efficient conveying for long distances without moving mechanical parts.
What is an Air Slide Conveyor?
Air slide conveyors are one of the most efficient solutions for powder handling. Instead of using belts or screw mechanisms, an air slide uses a fluidized air layer to move material smoothly along a fabric chamber.
Why do companies choose air slides?
- No moving mechanical parts
- Very low maintenance cost
- Quiet operation
- No belt wear, no spillage
- Completely sealed and dust-free
Common Applications
- Cement plants
- Fly-ash transfer
- Silo discharge
- Clinker grinding systems
- Powder additives
- Long-distance conveying over hundreds of meters
When properly designed, air slides provide continuous conveying with almost zero downtime.
Conclusion
For companies looking to reduce maintenance and improve environmental control, air slide conveyors are one of the smartest choices in modern bulk material handling.
