Pipe Conveyors
Safe and Efficient Material Transport with MEC HANDLING’s Pipe Conveyors
MEC HANDLING’s Pipe Conveyors offer a reliable and efficient solution for transporting bulk materials over long distances while keeping the material fully enclosed. This enclosed design prevents material spillage, reduces dust emissions, and protects materials from environmental factors such as wind or rain, making pipe conveyors an excellent choice for industries like mining, cement, and power generation.
Unlike traditional belt conveyors, pipe conveyors wrap the belt into a circular tube, securely holding materials as they travel along the system. This design not only minimizes material loss but also allows the conveyor to navigate tight curves and steep inclines, making it highly adaptable to different site layouts and terrains.
MEC HANDLING’s pipe conveyors are built for durability and can handle a wide range of bulk materials, from fine powders to large granules. They are engineered to reduce maintenance needs and offer long-lasting performance even in demanding environments. With features like adjustable speed control and automated monitoring systems, operators can ensure smooth, continuous material flow.
Our team provides complete support, from design and installation to maintenance, ensuring the system integrates seamlessly with your operations. With MEC HANDLING’s pipe conveyors, you benefit from a flexible, safe, and efficient solution that optimizes material transport and enhances productivity.

• Special belt, due to the method of inserting the nylon fabric and the quality of the rubber core and by adjusting the thickness and flexural rigidity of the core stratum at both edges, the belt maintains its shape to securely enclose materials for transport.
• Hexagonal shaped idler arrangement used to maintain the tube or pipe shape of the conveyor in the intermediate path on diaphragms frames
• Impact, carrying and return idlers
• Drive and tail head
• One or more drive units composed by electric motor, fluid coupling and gear reducer; backstop device, where needed
• Pulleys in carbon steel mounted on split plummer blocks designed to avoid belt misalignment: drive pulley with herringbone grooved rubber lagging, tail, snub, bend and tension pulleys
• Chute and casing
