Conveyor Systems for Mining and Mineral Processing
Australian-made conveyor systems for moving bulk material between process equipment, transfer points and stockpile areas.
LOADING-TO-DISCHARGE PATHWAYS
Configured around how material enters, travels and leaves the belt.
STABLE BELT SUPPORT
Frames, idlers, pulleys and take-up arrangements considered together.
SUPPORTED BEYOND SUPPLY
Engineering, manufacturing, spare parts and project support from one team.
Conveyor Systems That Carry Material Between Plant Stages
Oreflow designs and manufactures conveyor systems for mining, mineral processing and bulk materials handling operations that need reliable movement of ore and bulk material through the plant.
A conveyor system needs to suit the full transfer path. That includes how material is loaded onto the belt, how the belt is supported, how material is carried and discharged, how the structure fits into the plant and how crews access the conveyor for inspection, adjustment and maintenance.
Designed and manufactured in Western Australia, Oreflow conveyor systems can be supplied for new plant builds, plant upgrades, replacement conveyors and selected modification projects.
Where Conveyor Systems Fit in the Plant
Conveyor systems are used throughout mineral processing plants to move material between crushing, screening, feeding, transfer and stockpile areas.
Plant Conveyors
Conveyors for moving material between crushers, screens, feeders, chutes, bins and other process equipment.
Feed Conveyors
Conveyors used to deliver material into screens, crushers, hoppers or process equipment after loading or transfer.
Discharge Conveyors
Conveyors configured to move material away from process equipment, transfer points or discharge locations.
Stockpile Conveyors
Conveyors used to move material from the plant to stockpile areas where suitable for the handling duty and layout.
Replacement Conveyors
Conveyor systems for existing operations where belt path, access, transfer points and surrounding equipment need to be matched.
Upgrade Projects
Selected conveyor upgrades where structure, components, guarding, access or transfer interfaces need improvement.
Defining the Conveyor Run Before Manufacture
The right conveyor system starts with the belt path. Oreflow considers the material, loading conditions, required capacity, conveyor length, transfer points and plant interfaces before confirming the conveyor arrangement.
Specification Area | What Oreflow Considers |
Material Characteristics | Particle size, lump size, bulk density, moisture content, abrasiveness, flow behaviour and material consistency. |
Capacity and Duty | Required throughput, belt speed, loading rate, operating hours and process duty. |
Conveyor Layout | Conveyor length, transfer distance, incline angle, discharge height, available footprint and structure requirements. |
Loading and Discharge Points | How material enters the belt, where it discharges and how each transfer connects with surrounding equipment. |
Carry and Return Support | Idler spacing, frame arrangement, belt support, return side layout and access to serviceable components. |
Drive and Take-Up Arrangement | Drive location, pulley arrangement, take-up style and available space for adjustment and maintenance. |
Containment and Belt Cleaning | Skirting, impact beds, belt cleaners, V-ploughs, dust considerations and spillage control. |
Guarding and Access | Skirting, sealing, chute alignment and transfer-point control where required by the application. |
Plant Integration | Interfaces with crushers, screens, feeders, chutes, hoppers, bins, stockpiles and existing structures. |
Conveyor Structure, Components and Site Support
Oreflow can support conveyor system projects across the structural, mechanical and interface areas needed for a practical mining conveyor arrangement.
Depending on the project scope, this may include conveyor structure, frames, idlers, pulleys, belt support, drive and take-up arrangements, skirting systems, guarding, walkways, access platforms, belt cleaners, V-ploughs, impact beds and related conveyor components.
For new equipment, Oreflow can manufacture conveyor systems around the required belt path, material duty, loading points, discharge locations and available plant space.
For existing operations, Oreflow can assist with selected conveyor replacement, upgrade and modification work where the current layout, component condition, access limitations or transfer interfaces need to be improved.
FAQs
What are conveyor systems used for in mining?
Conveyor systems are used to move bulk material between equipment, plant areas, transfer points and stockpile locations in mining, mineral processing and bulk materials handling operations.
Can Oreflow manufacture custom conveyor systems?
Yes. Oreflow can manufacture conveyor systems around material characteristics, throughput requirements, belt path, loading points, discharge points, structure, guarding and maintenance access.
Are Oreflow conveyor systems Australian made?
Yes. Oreflow manufactures conveyor systems in Western Australia for mining, mineral processing and bulk materials handling applications.
What information helps specify a conveyor system?
