7 advantages of overhead conveyor line

Set and release overhead conveyor line is a kind of conveying equipment widely used in industry, agriculture, mining and other fields. It is characterized by the use of multi-stage support frames to support the conveying line, which is placed high in the air in order to convey materials. 

This conveying method has many advantages, which will be introduced in this paper from the following aspects.

I. Reduction of ground area

The set and release overhead conveying line places the conveying line in the high air, which can avoid the ground occupation area. This is very useful in mines, ports and other occasions, because it can make full use of the existing space and avoid the need for new conveying equipment to occupy more ground area. At the same time, it can also reduce the number of ground transportation equipment, which reduces the transportation cost.

II. Reduce energy consumption

Compared with the ground transportation equipment, the set and release overhead conveyor line has lower energy consumption. It can convey materials by gravity sliding and power sliding, so there is no need to use extra power to push the materials. This also means that it does not produce extra noise and pollution compared with other conveying methods.

III. Adapt to complex terrain

The set and release overhead conveying line can adapt to complex terrain and can be adapted to terrain changes by adjusting the height of the support frame. This adaptability makes it widely used in mountainous areas, canyons and other places with complex terrain. Meanwhile, it can also adapt to different weather conditions, such as strong wind, heavy rain and other weather.

IV. Cost saving

Compared with ground conveying equipment, the set and release overhead conveying line can save a lot of costs. Since it does not need to occupy a large area of ground, it can save land cost. At the same time, it can also reduce the operation cost because it has the characteristics of low energy consumption and low maintenance cost. In addition, it can also reduce manpower input and improve work efficiency.

V. Improve safety

The set-placement overhead conveyor line has obvious advantages in terms of safety. As the conveyor line is placed in the high air, it can avoid the risk of conflict between ground vehicles, pedestrians and other conveying equipment. At the same time, in some dangerous occasions, such as high temperature, toxic gas and other occasions, set and release overhead conveyor line can effectively avoid personnel injury.

VI. Improve efficiency

The set and release overhead conveyor line can realize the rapid conveying of materials. Its conveying speed can be adjusted according to the need, so that materials can be transported from one place to another quickly and efficiently. At the same time, the conveying task can be completed faster because the obstruction of ground traffic is reduced and the traffic flow such as people and vehicles is reduced. This improves work efficiency and reduces production costs.

VII. Easy maintenance

The maintenance of the set and release overhead conveyor line is relatively simple because the main part of the equipment is located high in the air and can avoid being affected by ground contamination, damage and other factors. At the same time, its design makes it easy for maintenance personnel to access the overhead area, making it easier to carry out equipment maintenance and repair.

To sum up, the set and release overhead conveyor line has the advantages of occupying less ground, reducing energy consumption, adapting to complex terrain, saving costs, improving safety, increasing work efficiency, and being easy to maintain. This conveying method is widely used in mining, port, building materials and other industries, bringing convenience and efficiency improvement to production and transportation.
