Dear Sir,
Thank you for your replies i go through ,of various questions put in the forum.
I aleays find your reply hits the target first,then explaining the issues, it makes me very interesting, though hard to go in depth sometimes.
I had a question about an observation. Textile pipe belt, I.D.-550 mm, EP 1500/5 , cover rubber-6/4, FR. The problem is : Power consumption was very high much more than the calculated value (~150%), powder like cover rubber is coming out of the bottom rubber like dust very fast. Customer finds the belt very stiff and heavey, hence claiming to replace. What are the most plausible reasons for this?
Regards,

Hello,
Regarding mentioned pipe conveyor application for Potash, my views about capacity range are same as per earlier reply by Mr. Nordell.

About 2 years ago we designed the world's longest single flight pipe conveyor at 17 km. This more than doubles the old posted 8 km length. It has since been running without incident.
New standards of design allow new hybrid methods to take advantage of modern technology where standard trough and pipe configurations co-exist along/within the same conveyor where sharp turns are necessary, but, which also utilize standard trough assy. to minimize power consumption and belt strength. There are other advancements that take advantage of fewer pipe rollers ( 4 and 5 roller assy.). Other modern features include extended idler spacing.
New testing regimes and finite element analysis provide confidence to extend the science to new records. New steel cord arrangements control pipe twisting as per our patent. We see no limit to length with the use of booster drive technology. Double Arrow has built a test assy. to evaluate the pipe diameter to 800 mm at their china factory. Bi-directional pipe conveyors have also been put into service.

Have you considered a Sandwich belt high angle conveyor? I am happy to send you information and prepare a budget quote.

Mind Your Heads
Germans say the devil hides in detail. It also seems he finds pipe conveyors a good hiding place.
"We have done extensive work with the conveyor structure and specifically the triangular gantry and maintenance trolley.
The triangular gantry is now the preferred structure in India, being requested for most applications where the environment, safety, fire prevention and land sterilization are considered." This one takes a bit of explaining: why not all applications where..... if it so good?
"Why does the pipe size restrict the triangular gantry size??" Where would you make room for the fancy maintenance trolley?
"We do not double circumnavigate." Are we talking about a pipe belt or this thread?
Pipe conveying is a folly: one of Hirohito's revenges.
