TEDO® Tube Belt Conveyor
Special Belt Conveyor for Universal Use
A tube belt conveyor is a special type of classic belt conveyor, with which it has almost identical end units. At the material inlet point the belt is unrolled as in the case with conventional belt conveyors. The following shaping of the belt into a closed form is ensured by a special configuration of rollers after the material is filled in. Material is transported on a conveyor belt of a circular section to the point of discharge. The closed tube has the ability to ensure conveyance with spatial curvature and large gradient. The conveying side of a return run is rolled inwards, preventing the dust or the rest of material falling off the belt. A special type of a belt conveyor is a U-TEDO conveyor where the conveying belt is not closed and forms a “U” shape. This solution brings most of advantages of belt conveyors, but has a significantly higher conveying capacity for the same width of the belt.
Main benefits:
- Easy to integrate in existing plants
- Suited for long distances with difficult topography of the route
- Conveying capacity over 1500 m3/h – over 3500 m3/h for the U-TEDO conveyor
- Spatial curvature and large gradient
- Conveyed material protected against weather effects
- Dust-free conveyance without fallout on the conveyor route
- Conveyance in both directions
