ASGCO 3-DEM Chute Analysis In Application
A major electric utility benefited from ASGCO's 3-DEM technology and subsequent fabrication. Click to see the complete Case Study of this application which features:
  • Adjustable Hood - to optimize discharge flow
     
  • Chute Design -  to control velocity of flow with lower "spoon" designed to decelerate material in direction and speed of the conveyor, minimizing dusting
     
  • Skirting Achieves the Final Seal -  ASGCO Clamp-Mount system secures material against the environment 


New stainless steel head chute box with the enclosed adjustable ceramic material deflector “Hood.”


New stainless steel, ceramic lined, “Spooned” for soft loading of the coal in the same direction of belt travel.


Skirting achieves the final seal between material flow and the environment.

Benefits of 3-DEM Chute Design
Increase Overall Conveyor Performance!
Increased Production Capabilities
  Stop chute plugging, spillage, belt wear, chute wear, and dust
Optimize Life on Conveyor Belt and  Components
  Minimize impact and top cover wear on the conveyor belt by using a curved chute or soft loading design
  Reduce impact and abrasion to chute liners and conveyor components
Minimize Material Spillage
  Center load the material
  Load the material at a uniform rate and speed the belt is moving
  Optimize material flow in the direction of travel and load the material after the belt is fully troughed
  Maintain conveyor belt alignment throughout the load zone.
  Ensure proper conveyor belt tracking throughout the load zone
Reduce the Need for Dust Control and Suppression
  Minimize the dust through a curved chute or soft loading design
  Effective skirting and internal wear and impact resistant chute liners
  Maintain dust curtains staggered throughout the loading area to further minimize air movement
Decrease Carry-back
  Optimize belt cleaner design to match the performance needed to reduce carry-back
