New Products
- At around 7 kilometres in length, this "Flyingbelt" is the longest in the
world - A new bulk transportation system moving materials more efficiently and
securely, with lower environmental impact - A successful project partnership
with Leitner ropeways/Agudio
The Sempertrans segment of the international Semperit Group, together with the
Italian ropeway manufacturer Leitner ropeways its brand Agudio, have developed
a completely new system for bulk transportation over long distances - the
"Flyingbelt", a combination of ropeway and conveyor belt. The unique conveyor
belt suspended on ropes connects a limestone mine in South Eastern Brazil with
a cement plant owned by LafargeHolcim, the largest producer of construction
materials globally. Under the most difficult topographical conditions, 1,500
tonnes of limestone per hour are transported at a height of up to 36 metres.
The new "Flyingbelt", with a length of approximately 7 kilometres, is the
longest in the world.
"With the Agudio "Flyingbelt" we have installed a very innovative bulk
materials transportation system. The Sempertrans conveyor belt not only
overcomes - at great height - terrain that can only be accessed with
difficulty, it also transports material efficiently and in an
environmentally-friendly way. More than 40 truck journeys every hour are
saved", comments Thomas Fahnemann, CEO of Semperit Group. "We are the only
conveyor belt manufacturer worldwide that has the technical expertise to
deliver the right belt for the special construction of a cable conveyor belt",
Fahnemann adds.
Efficient and with low environmental impact The longest flying conveyor belt in
the world was produced in the Sempertrans plant in France and shipped to
Brazil. The customer LafargeHolcim was convinced by the lower long-term
operating expenses and the higher transportation capacities. The electricity
consumption of the new conveyor equipment is only around one third of that of
conventional ropeway systems and, instead of the previous maximum of 400 tonnes
per hour, 1,500 tonnes of limestone can now be transported in the same amount
of time. In addition, the construction work needed on the ground for
traditional conveyor belts, which encroaches significantly on nature and the
landscape, was not necessary for the "Flyingbelt" in Brazil.
Following the successful completion of the project for LafargeHolcim,
Sempertrans and Agudio plan to convince further customers about the new
technology. New projects are in the pipeline, also in areas other than the core
mining segment.
