Figure 5. Transfer chutes for varying vertical and horizontal angles of discharge belt The optimization of chutes in Section 3 is related to such long chutes as depicted here in Figures 4 and 5. The three basic types of chutes outlined above, are the rigid chute – with or without a change in material

The largest electric utility in Kansas has announced completion of an upgrade program to redesign transfer chutes and load zones on the coal handling conveyors at its biggest coalfired facility, drastically reducing dust and spillage.

The engineered chutes designed for the Westar facility employ a "chute and spoon" transfer, with the head discharge chute at the top of the system and a spoon receiving chute to place material with minimal impact onto the belt being loaded.

CCC Group Inc., an industrial contractor and specialty engineering provider with headquarters in San Antonio, has announced the successful design and replacement of a 6000tph PRB coal transfer chute with new passive dust control technology, the Smart Chute .

Custom chute design for hard rock and coal transportation systems. Research has shown that in hard rock and coal transportation systems the biggest problems facing the integrity of the total handling system lay in the operation of the transfer chutes. In most cases it was found that it was the inadequacy of design that led to problems.

Company officials wanted to upgrade the material handling system to improve throughput and eliminate flow issues, they knew it was going to take some creative thinking, as the terminal's ambitious loading schedule limits the opportunities for maintenance and equipment changes. Downtime is scarce, with maintenance and system upgrades handled during annual midJanuary and February system ...

Before the development of suitable conveyor belts, coal was transported from the mine by rail transport systems, but today coal transport is almost invariably by conveyor belts. In a mine with drift or adit access, the conveyor transport can be all the way to surface but in a mine with only shaft access winding or hoisting of coal in the shaft is required.

Transfer Chutes. The simulation of bulk materials flowing through a transfer chute is one the most difficult engineering problems facing belt conveyor engineers. Through the use of Discrete Eleemnt Modeling (DEM), Bulk Flow Analyst ™ can simulate any transfer problem and .
