BHP Airslides are modular in construction,
designed for low power consumption and for better
efficiency. Air slides depend on gravity to move the
material along. They are inclined in the range of 6
- 10 degrees for moving fine materials. A relatively
small volume of air is passed through a porous membrane
into the material to make it flow. Air slides are often
used to receive material from bucket elevators at the
top of the silo, in silo extraction system or pre-heater
tower and move the material nearly horizontally. Powdery
material with temperature up to 200 deg. can be conveyed.
