Schenck Process Conveyors
U Belt Conveyor
Working Principle
At the material inlet point the belt is open in the same way as is the case with conventional belt conveyors. A special roller configuration forms the belt to create a special U shape. Material is transported to the outlet in the U-shaped conveyor. A similar roller configuration to the one used for shaping the belt is used to open it. U belt conveyors have major advantages over tube conveyors, e.g. higher feed rates. In other words, a narrower belt and a smaller design are used for the same feed rate.
Benefits
- Easy to integrate in existing plants
- Suited for long distances and rough terrain as well as horizontal and vertical curves
- Conveyed material is protected against outside influences (wind, rain, snow, etc.)
- Environment is protected against potential loss of material
- Lower costs and smaller design compared to tube belt conveyors
- Identical capacities as conventional belt conveyors
- Maximum length of the conveyor is the same as with a conventional belt conveyor

Schenck Process Conveyors
Corrugated Belt Conveyor
Working Principle
The material is fed onto the belt at the loading point. The conveyor is fitted with a pre-conveyor, or silo, which in combination with a weighing system determines the amount of material that is fed onto the corrugated belt conveyor.
At the outlet the material is discharged from the pockets thanks to its self-weight, centrifugal force and rapper pulley.
Benefits
- Easy to integrate in existing plants
- Vertical conveyance
- Minimal dust formation due to flexible conveyor configuration
- Flexibility allows for material discharge from the conveyor at the outlet
- Environmentally secure system:
- protects the material conveyed
- Material which falls from the downhill conveyor is lifted by a cleat and sent back to the uphill conveyor

Schenck Process Conveyors
Tube Belt Conveyor
Working Principle
When material is loaded onto the conveying belt, the belt is open and the material is supplied in the same way as is the case with conventional belt conveyors.
Special devices close the belt carrying the conveyed material.
The belt forms a closed pipe over the entire conveying distance.
The belt opens automatically before the material discharge point is reached and the material is then discharged.
