POWDER CONVEYING AT HIGH EFFICIENCY AND TEMPERATURE

AIRSLIP ™ fluidizing fabrics are used for the transportation of powder or granulated bulk materials all over the world. There are virtually no limits to how they can be used. Our fabrics ensure fast, trouble-free air slide transportation, total discharge for silos, trucks, railway wagons and vessels, as well as optimal coating in fluidizing basins.

HOW DOES AIRSLIP ™ WORKS?

1

Driving low-pressure, low-velocity air
through and between particles of a dry
bulk material, changing its behavior
characteristics and making it flow more
like a liquid than a solid.

Material pile at natural angle of repose

All dry bulk material has a natural angle
of repose, often in excess of 45°.

2

Without any fluidization, the
conveyor would need to be
inclined on an angle greater
than the angle of repose to
establish gravity flow.

Material pile requiring steeper conveyor angle
3

With fluidization, gravity
flow can be achieved
at a greatly reduced
slope - of 8° or less.

WHAT MAKES AIR SLIP™ UNIQUE?

Airslip™ Fabric Coating Chemistries are engineered to enhance fluidisation performance, durability, and operational reliability in demanding powder conveying and storage applications.Using surface medicating through ionisation process and then empragenting a light coat, Airslip fabric retains the chemistries for long period delivering outcomes.

Quick release coating
  • Allows powder to discharge quickly.
  • Avoids static build up on surface.
Anti Acid/ Alkali resistant coating
  • Coating allows dry acid resistance of upto PH2 and dry alkali resistance of upto PH12.
  • Protects the degradation of material to give longer life.
Abrasion resistant coating
  • Suitable for high temperature for powder of Mohs 6+.
  • Adds to abrasion resistance to increase the life.

AIR PERMEABILITY PRESSURE DROP OVER THE LIFETIME [MMWG]

Compared to the AIRSLIP™ fabric which shows a consistent air permeability pressure drop over the entire lifetime of the fabric, the competitive spun yarn fabric has up to 50% less fabric lifetime* due to decreasing air permeability resistance.
