Advantages of Pipe Conveyor Systems

In its journey to provide innovative solutions for bulk material handling, Intra has adopted pipe conveyor systems as a key component since 1993. This advanced technology offers many advantages over traditional rubber belt conveyors, including increased efficiency, environmental sustainability, high adaptability and cost effectiveness.

What is a Pipe Conveyor?

A pipe conveyor is a conveyor belt shaped into a tube, forming a fully enclosed handling system designed for the transportation of bulk materials over long distances. Unlike traditional conveyors, this innovative system protects materials from external influences, effectively preventing the spread of dust and material spillage. Additionally, pipe conveyor belt systems are highly adaptable to slopes and terrain requiring turning points, making them ideal for a variety of site conditions.

Intra, which actively represented the company that designed the pipe conveyor belt systems in Turkey in its early years, became the first company to manufacture pipe conveyor belts in Turkey after the company ceased its operations. Since then, it has been the pioneer of domestic production in this field by carrying out the design, manufacturing, installation and commissioning processes of pipe conveyor systems within its own organization.

Defining Features of Intra’s Pipe Conveyor

1. Environmental Protection: The fully enclosed design of the pipe conveyor eliminates dust and material spillage, significantly reducing environmental pollution. This makes it an ideal solution for industries with stringent environmental regulations.
2. Turning Capability: The pipe conveyor’s unique design allows it to navigate sharp turns and steep inclines, providing greater flexibility in route planning and installation. This adaptability makes it a versatile option for complex site layouts.
3. Bidirectional Transport: Intra’s pipe conveyor can transport materials in two directions, optimizing space and reducing the need for multiple conveyor systems. This feature is particularly beneficial in industries where efficiency and space utilization are critical.
4. Cost Efficiency: The ability to handle materials in a closed system, navigate challenging terrain, and transport in two directions all contribute to lower operational and maintenance costs. This makes the pipe conveyor a cost-effective solution for bulk material handling.
5. High Elevation Capability: Unlike traditional belt conveyors, the pipe conveyor can easily ascend steep slopes without risking material spillage, providing more options for site design and layout.
