Poeth has designed its new AirConveyor
specifically for companies that want to transport powders, pellets and
granulates cost-effectively and efficiently
This innovative system offers companies 75
percent less maintenance costs after approx. three years operating time and
consumes 40 percent less energy.
The air-supported conveying system from
Poeth is suitable for damage-free transportation of bulk goods over short or
extremely long distances. The AirConveyor generates low noise emissions and is
dust-tight. As a result, the new conveying system from Poeth also has a minimum
impact on the environment.

Powerful air cushion supports the conveyor
belt without the need for rollers
Poeth has developed a new and efficient
generation conveying systems where the conveyor belt floats on a cushion of
air. Poeth's AirConveyor features a perforated channel and compact, specially
designed fans.
By providing a constant supply of exactly
the right quantity of air, Poeth has succeeded in creating a powerful air
cushion directly under the conveyor belt in its new conveying system. This
powerful air cushion makes it possible to raise the conveyor belt, along with
the bulk goods it carries, and keep it airborne based on the same principle as
that used by a hovercraft.
Only one conveyor roller, located in the
drive, tensioning and belt return station, is needed to set the conveyor belt
in motion. Poeth's new AirConveyor eliminates 95 percent of all moving parts in
comparison to traditional belt conveyor systems. As a result, Poeth's
AirConveyor generates far less friction.
This makes the air-supported conveying
system 40 percent more energy-efficient and significantly reduces noise
emissions (<80dbA). Fewer moving parts result in much less maintenance and
negligible conveyor belt wear.
Fewer rotating parts also provide less heat
and less risk of exposures. The AirConveyor is suitable for extreme circumstances
and difficult to reach places. This also makes the new AirConveyor extremely
reliable and cost-efficient.
Homogeneous, damage-free conveying over
long distances
zThe new belt conveyor from Poeth is
suitable for transporting raw materials in the feed, food, chemical and bulk
industries. The AirConveyor is used to transport a wide variety of products
such as salt, sugar, cereals, seeds, animal feed, biomass, coal, ore, sand and
gravel. The advantage of belt conveyors is that they transport products without
agitating them.
Consequently, the new AirConveyor from
Poeth is ideally suitable for conveying fragile, explosive and sticky raw
materials without risking separation. The new AirConveyor is capable of
high-capacity transportation (3 m3/hour – 2000 m3/hour), both horizontally and
vertically.
Poeth offers its AirConveyor as an
enclosed, dust-tight system for both indoor and outdoor application. The
AirConveyor is also available according ATEX and Food Grade guidelines (FDA, EC
1935/2004 and 3.1B material certificates).
