Dynamische Übergabeschurre zur Effizienzsteigerung von Gurtbandförderern

At transfer points for bulk materials, transfer chutes are required between two belt conveyors. Depending on the conveyed bulk material, these chute systems often cause wear, caking, and poor material handling. Wear occurs both on the chute walls and on the downstream conveyor belt. Caking on the chute walls is oftencaused by the cohesive fine-grained particles of the bulk material. Especially wet bulk material can lead to clogging of the chutes. Bulk material handling is ideal when the bulk material is loaded centrally onto the downstream conveyor. Furthermore, feeding in conveying direction of the downstream belt conveyor and a material deflection by the chute with minimum wear are also required for ideal bulk material handling. At the “Chair of Mining Engineering and Mineral Economics—Conveying Technology and Design Methods” in cooperation with the companies ScrapeTec Trading GmbH, ScrapeTec GmbH and WanggoGummitechnik GmbH, a new dynamic transfer chute is currently being developed, since standard chute systems are often unable to optimally perform the tasks assigned to them.
