Python Enclosed Belt Conveyor
|
|
The Python Conveyor is a completely closed tubular belt conveyor system which provides a clean and environmentally safe means of transportation without spillage or scattering of material.
The Python Conveyor is unique in its capacity to move over any complicated route. There is no restriction either in the number of degrees in a single curve or in the number of short radius turns in any direction (horizontal, vertical or combined).
The specially designed distributed drive system allows unlimited conveyor length without the need of reloading stations. The Python has a high conveying speed. Variable speed can be up to 2,500 fpm (25-30 mph). Automated high speed loading is keyed to the conveyor speed.
A Conventional Belt Conveyor Systems
|
A conventional belt conveyor typically consists of a flat belt, stretched between pulleys, with rollers supporting the belt along the length of travel. Usually a unit drive powers the belt. Flat belt conveyors are limited in length and in angles of inclination.They cannot turn corners. Material spillage is a problem. Dust from powdery materials presents a hazard to people, the environment and the equipment.

Current Systems |
|---|
|
Clean and environmentally safe transportation without spillage or scattering of the conveyed material due to the self-closing aspect of the belt design. |
Environment requirements restrict and sometimes make open conveyor systems economically prohibitive. |
|
Tubular belt design which is self-closing and self-opening at loading and unloading stations. |
No comparable belts are available. |
|
Ability to route the conveyor at steep angles, even vertically, as well as making unlimited horizontal turns, so that material can be transported over steep up and down slopes and around various obstacles. |
|
|
Essentially unlimited conveyor line length, without need of reloading stations, due to its specially designed distributed drive system. |
|
|
Relatively small size and light weight of belt construction, resulting in light weight economical supporting structures. |
Large belt size for high conveyor productivity leads to heavy and very costly supporting structure. |
