Product Overview

Large Angle Corrugated Sidewall Belt Conveyor is a continuous bulk material handling equipment for steep inclined conveying. It adopts a special corrugated sidewall belt with transverse cleats. Materials are held by corrugated sidewalls and cleats on the belt to avoid sliding and falling back. It is designed for steep-angle vertical or inclined conveying of powder, granular and small lump bulk solids.

Featuring small footprint and flexible layout, the unit saves a lot of space compared with ordinary belt conveyors. It is widely used for continuous steep lifting of powder, granular, small lump and viscous bulk materials.

Main types include horizontal feeding + large inclined lifting type, Z-type lifting type and C-type lifting type. Carbon steel or stainless steel frame options are available for ordinary, abrasive and mildly corrosive working conditions. Rubber, heat-resistant, oil-resistant and flame-retardant sidewall belts are optional for different material characteristics.

Main Structure & Key Features

Corrugated sidewall belt assembly: The corrugated sidewall belt is the core working component. It consists of base belt, corrugated sidewalls and transverse cleats. Different heights of sidewalls and cleats are selectable for different particle sizes and conveying angles. Cleats are firmly vulcanized on the base belt between two sidewalls.

Drive assembly: The main driving component is motor-reducer unit. Drive pulley transfers power to pull the sidewall belt to run steadily. Different drive structures are available for light load, heavy load, high temperature and high abrasion materials.

Frame & roller assembly: Metal frame composed of head section, intermediate frame sections and tail section. Supporting idlers and return rollers support the belt and materials. Guard plates are equipped as required. Stainless steel frame meets anti-corrosion and sanitary requirements.

Tension & deviation correction unit: Screw tension device installed at the tail keeps proper belt tension to avoid slipping. Side guide rollers and deviation adjusting devices prevent belt deviation during long-time steep-angle operation. Anti-backstop device prevents material fallback and belt reversal under shutdown condition.

Inlet & outlet: Standard feeding hopper and discharge chute can be arranged at the start and end of the conveyor. Customised inlet/outlet height, angle and connection flange can be supplied to match your process layout. Dust cover can be optionally equipped for dust control.

Typical Application

Commonly used in building materials, cement, chemical, grain, feed, mining, environmental protection and solid waste industries for steep-angle conveying of powder, granular and small lump materials. Suitable for conditions as below: Processes requiring steep inclined lifting to save workshop space; Limited installation height and floor area demanding compact equipment layout; Production flows transferring bulk materials from low position to high silos or next-stage processing machines; Dry, slightly wet, abrasive or mildly corrosive materials, where heat-resistant, oil-resistant or wear-resistant belts are preferred.

Selection Notes

Define material properties: particle size, moisture content, stickiness, abrasiveness and corrosiveness to decide belt type, sidewall height and cleat form. Confirm required hourly capacity, conveying height, inclination angle and material temperature. Conveying height, angle and throughput directly determine model selection and drive power. Not recommended for extremely sticky, large lump or sharp angular materials which easily tear the sidewall and cleats and cause belt damage. Specify special requirements such as explosion-proof, flame retardant, dust cover, food-grade or CE certification. Check site layout and reserved maintenance space for head, tail and belt replacement.

Conclusion

With compact structure, space-saving layout and stable steep-angle conveying capacity, Large Angle Corrugated Sidewall Belt Conveyor is the preferred solution for high-incline bulk material transportation. Reliable continuous material transfer can be achieved when properly matched with material characteristics and site working conditions.
