Air Slides for Cement Industry

Aeration conveyors, also known as air slides, are considered useful for moving fine powdered products such as cement, fly ash, alumina, and lime over small to medium distances. They use low-pressure air to move fine bulk materials along a slight incline on a media that prevents dust, with all operations inside the system. Because they are simple, energy-efficient, and can move materials continuously, air slides are important in the cement, power, and chemical industries.

Technomart India builds and manufactures efficient air slide systems that are created for your plant’s unique structure. The steel housings in our air slides are covered with special fabric, which results in air being consistently spread inside the slides. Since our air slides are engineered with robust moving parts, low maintenance needs, and modular design, they’re a dependable and low-cost choice in bulk solids handling.

  

Features

  • Uniform Fluidization for Smooth Flow – By using high-quality aeration fabric, the equipment ensures equal distribution of air on the conveyor and prevents clogging.
  • Inclined Gravity-Based Operation – Created for use at delicate angles (5° to 12°), where gravity and air in the flow make it easy to move materials with minimal effort.
  • Dust-Free Enclosed Conveying – Since the ductwork is completely closed, it stops materials from spilling and dust emissions, supporting safety, a clean environment, and compliance with environmental guidelines.
  • Modular Design for Easy Integration – Available as straight or bent pieces and in any length required to accommodate different plant designs or to link silos, bins, and processing tools properly.
  • Low Maintenance and Energy Use – Because the system doesn’t have any moving mechanical parts, it needs very minimal maintenance. The low-pressure air blowers used consumes more nominal energy.
