New Conveyors for Sale

What is a conveyor?

A conveyor is a machine used to transport bulk materials like crushed stone, sand, gravel, and other aggregates from one location to another. Conveyors are commonly used in mining, quarrying, and construction operations to move materials efficiently across various stages of processing, such as from the crushing plant to stockpiles or directly to loading areas. These systems help streamline material handling, reduce labor costs, and increase overall productivity in aggregate processing.

History of conveyors

The history of conveyors dates back to the early 20th century when basic conveyor systems were first introduced to move bulk materials more efficiently. Initially, these conveyors were relatively simple belt systems designed to handle loose materials. As technology advanced, so did the design and functionality of conveyors, incorporating features like variable speed controls, improved materials, and enhanced durability to handle heavier loads and more abrasive materials. Today, conveyors are an essential part of aggregate production, with innovations that have made them more reliable, efficient, and capable of operating in challenging environments.
