EFFICIENT SOLUTION FOR LONG DISTANCES
BEUMER open troughed belt conveyors are suitable for conveying any type of material that must be transported quickly across vast distances through rough terrain. With extremely tight curve radii and large centre distances, these systems enable very high throughput and high mass flows of robust and heavy materials.
Different materials can be conveyed in the upper and lower strands at the same time. This makes troughed belt conveyors particularly flexible and efficient. In addition, low investment costs and the short amortisation time ensure high costeffectiveness.
AT A GLANCE:
Old tyres, shredded tyres, plastics and other oil-based mineral products – large volumes of alternative fuels are available at low cost and can be safely disposed of using the high-temperature process in the rotary kiln systems in cement works, leaving no residues.
Our systems enable these alternative materials to be stored, separated, weighed, metered out and transported efficiently and without harming the environment. It is also possible to change fuel types.
These plants thus ensure that kilns in cement works are operated and fuelled much more economically. At the same time, the ash from the alternative fuels is added to the mineral components of the cement clinker and thus reduces the volume of additives needed.
AT A GLANCE:
MOBILE CONVEYOR BELTS FOR MAXIMUM EFFICACY IN MINING
Mobile conveyor belts help with one of mining's most significant challenges that's rooted in the process of extracting ores, coal, and rocks from the ground: While excavating raw materials on-site in a mine or a quarry, the distance from the point of excavation to the overland conveyor increases with every cubic ton that's mined. Moving the raw materials across the excavation site by truck is costly, time-consuming, and potentially dangerous to the miners. However, mobile conveyor belts can be adapted to the ever-changing on-site requirements by adding or removing individual modules, thus allowing for safer, more efficient transportation.
Benefits:
PIPE CONVEYORS - CLOSED TRANSPORTATION OF BULK MATERIALS
Tight turns, steep inclines and long distance - pipe conveyors transport bulk material across challenging terrain. A pipe conveyor is actually a conveyor belt shaped into a tube, the closing of the belt helps to reduce contamination and spillage: protecting bulk materials from the sun, rain and wind - and protecting the environment at the same time. This is important when transporting sensitive materials, such as waste products for instance, close to or even through public areas. There are no unpleasant smells, no material loss, and equally as important, there are no adverse effects to the surrounding environment.
Benefits:
We develop screw conveyors to precisely supply the exact dosage of alternative fuels in the cement works and for the loading of ships in the port. Shredded car tyres, waste wood, textiles, paper and plastics - screw conveyors simplify the transportation of a wide variety of goods. The helical screw conveyor rotates in a U-shaped pan or tube, transporting the bulk materials out of the silos. With low failure susceptibility, low costs and a flexible screw pitch, makes the screw conveyor advantageous for short distances. Versions with double auger or with weighing capabilities can be adapted to suit your needs.
Facts:
Our central chain bucket elevator was developed expressly for maximum conveyor performance; depending on design, sizeable centre distances can thus be achieved, and conveyed volumes can reach 1,900 m³/h depending on bucket width.
Their full strength comes to the fore with hot, abrasive or granular bulk material, as in milling operations in the cement industry, for instance. A range of chain types is available to ensure the best possible use. Our central chain bucket elevators are in the field of high permanent temperatures of the material, e.g. for hot clinker.
Facts:
Shiftable conveyors in opencast mines as well as numerous belt conveyors within handling systems require a hopper cFAM hopper cars ensure a controlled centered feeding, which is particularly important because of the straight run of the belt.
Depending on the design, two types are possible:
For easier lifting and guiding of the belt in the upper strand, usually articulated roller stations are used, which can better absorb the shock from the falling feed material thus protecting the top cover of the belt.
ar that is capable of distributing material along the entire conveying length.
The round peg must fit into the square hole! Or how does cement actually get packed into the cement sack? With the help of free-flow technology. Not only is mortar, plaster and cement poured into sacks.

Highlights
Automated palletising technology helps to get large quantities of your product from the factory to the customer. Palletisers gently and quickly stack cement sacks, cardboard boxes or containers of liquid on top of one another. Thanks to the first-class stacking quality, all packaged units reach the retailer undamaged. For over 40 years we have been developing palletising technology that can be seamlessly integrated into your manufacturing process. Whether you produce materials for the building industry, for the chemical industry or supply your customers with food, with automatic palletising you will stay competitive in the future.
High-performance palletisers that even under extreme conditions work reliably accelerate the production process. The quality of the palletising technology is demonstrated by its long service life. The modular design can be expanded as required. For bagged products, i.e. those packed in sacks, the packer technology implements all commonly used packing patterns. At the push of a button, the palletisers react flexibly to changes in size and material. Thus the packed pallets are loaded into the truck without delay and reach your customer on time. Our BEUMER robotpac® palletising robot packs dimensionally stable and unstable goods. We have developed the BEUMER paletpac® palletising system for stacking bags.
Does the market demand higher throughput? No problem: The BEUMER paletpac® high-performance palletiser could be your answer. Our palletisers and palletising systems can stack exceptionally high quantities of robust, bagged products onto pallets and then move them carefully, safely and economically. Take the opportunity to increase your production with an automated palletising process.
Highlights of BEUMER paletpac® series
Who stacks bricks on pallets? Does champagne run through pipes into the supermarket? Is granulate filled into sacks with a spoon? All products need packaging - especially for transportation. Whether in the retail, building materials or the chemical industry, after production all products have to make their way to the end user. Stable packaging preserves the value of your product. Safe palletising prevents accidents and sustainable packaging saves natural resources and money. But are you also ready for smart packaging technology at top speed? Complete packaging lines give your filling and packaging process the competitive productivity boost.
Filling bulk goods into bags is the first step in the packaging process. The filling and sealing of those bags is done fully automatically by machines with the intention of filling and shaping the bags for easy stacking and palletisation. The weight of the packaged goods is also measured and adjusted on a continuous basis. The Form-Fill-Seal or FFS process stands for forming, filling and sealing. Irregular flow behaviour and high temperatures are often to be expected with chemical products. We have designed the comprehensive BEUMER fillpac® FFS system for gentle filling. The machine forms precisely fitting bags from a PE tubular film, fills them and seals them automatically. The machine processes up to 2,600 bags per hour. An integrated scale automatically checks the precise product quantity.
The BEUMER stretch hood® A offers maximum load stability due to the combination of vertical and horizontal contracting forces of the film. The high-flexibility film allows different product sizes to be packaged on the same pallet.
The BEUMER stretch hood® A also scores on sustainability: the packaging process uses no heat and consumes very little power, while also minimising the fire risk. Only the exact amount of film required is used, in just a single layer. The sturdy, watertight film and the high level of stability of the packed pallets guarantee outstanding performance for outdoor storage.
Ease of handling is provided by automatic recognition of the pallet dimensions and precise selection of the film format. The system can also be operated simply and intuitively via the touch panel, with explanatory video covering the more technical functions.
