We provide coal conveyor, coal stacker, portable coal conveyor, tripper conveyor, coal conveyor system, coal conveyor belt, coal conveyor roller, pulleys, etc.
Coal conveyors are very important to handle bulk coal in industries of underground and open pit coal mining, coal washing, coal preparation, coking, sintering, smelting, thermal power, etc. The coal conveyors can be fixed and movable. For many years, we have helped our customer build many customized coal conveyor belt systems. They were installed in:
Underground coal mines may contain gas (methane), and coal is a flammable substance. Therefore, the primary requirement for selecting coal conveyor is to ensure the safety of underground coal transportation. You can choose solid woven belt conveyor, and steel cord belt conveyor.
The solid woven conveyor belt is a special conveyor belt for underground coal mines. It has good flame retardant and antistatic properties, light weight, low manufacturing cost, good tear resistance and other advantages. Compared with the solid woven conveyor belt, the steel cord conveyor belt has the advantages of high tensile strength, small elongation, impact resistance, large carrying capacity, long transportation distance, and long service life.
Compared with underground coal mines, surface coal mines have better transportation conditions, and flame retardant and antistatic requirements are no longer the main requirements. The physical and mechanical properties should be given priority to, while safety performance should be taken into consideration. Multi ply fabric conveyor belts and steel cord conveyor belts should be preferred.
Coal Mining Plant Stockpiling Conveyor for Coal
In coal washing plants, coal conveyors are the backbone of the cleaning process, moving raw coal from extraction sites to washing units and beyond. These systems handle coal of varying sizes and moisture levels, feeding it through coal screens, coal crushers, and wash boxes to remove impurities like ash and sulfur. Typically, heavy duty belt conveyors with widths of 800–1200 mm and capacities of 500–1500 tonnes per hour (tph) are used, designed with durable rubber belts to withstand wet, abrasive coal. Conveyor troughing idlers (e.g., 35° angle) support the belt, while water-resistant seals and scrapers manage slurry buildup. By delivering cleaner coal, these conveyors enhance fuel quality for downstream uses like power generation or coking.
Coal Port Belt Conveyor
At coal-fired power plants, coal conveyors ensure a steady fuel supply from stockpiles to boilers. These systems often span long distances—up to 1–2 kilometers—linking storage yards to pulverizers. For long distance conveyance, large scale overland conveyor with belt widths of 1000–1600 mm and capacities exceeding 2000 tph are common, equipped with heavy-duty steel frames to handle coal's weight (800–1800 kg/m³). Features like dust enclosures and sprinkler systems control emissions, critical for environmental compliance. For stockpiling and feeding, our tripper conveyors may distribute coal across bunkers, while steep inclines (up to 18°) use chevron belts for grip. Reliable operation here is non-negotiable—any downtime directly impacts electricity output.
The coal conveyors in a power plant is to convey fuel coal to stockyard and firing boring. The conveyor belts can be:
It mainly depends the conveyance distance, environment protection rules, etc.
Coking plants transform coal into coke for steelmaking, and conveyors play a pivotal role in this high-temperature process. They transport coal to blending yards, then to ovens, handling blends tailored for coke quality. Belt conveyors (900–1400 mm wide, 1000–1800 tph) dominate, often paired with stacker-reclaimers or radial stacker or radial telescopic stacker for pile management. Heat-resistant belts and idlers endure proximity to ovens, while dust suppression—via fogging or enclosures—manages fine coal particles. Precision is key: conveyors must deliver consistent volumes to ensure uniform coke output, making automation and sensors increasingly standard.
In steel plants, conveyors feed coal into blast furnaces or stockyards, supporting both coking coal and pulverized coal injection (PCI). These systems, often shorter but high-capacity (up to 1500 tph), use belt widths of 1000–1400 mm and rugged designs to handle coal's abrasiveness. Magnetic separators remove tramp iron, protecting downstream equipment, while weigh feeders ensure precise coal dosing for PCI—a cost-saving alternative to coke. Mobile radial stackers may build stockpiles, offering flexibility in tight layouts. Durability and uptime are critical here, as steel production runs 24/7.
Coal Conveyor For Steel Plant
In modern coal transporting industry, the ship is an very important vehicle. To load coal into coal carrier, we need coal conveyor and ship loader. We provide coal conveyors for transporting coal on the port and coal mobile shiploader for loading coal into container of bulk vessels. At ports, coal ship loading conveyors load ships efficiently, bridging land and sea logistics. Our portable ship loading conveyors extend over vessels, with belt widths of 1000–1800 mm and capacities of 500–3000 tph. Outreach can adjustable via luffing or telescoping or slewing mechanisms to match ship holds. Dust control is paramount; systems like telescopic chutes with dust skirts or integrated water sprays minimize emissions during loading. High-speed operation cuts turnaround times, making these conveyors vital for export hubs handling millions of tonnes annually.
Mobile Shiploader for Coal
We provide coal conveyor component for sale.
Coal conveyors are more than just transport tools—they're engineered lifelines for industries reliant on this versatile fuel. From washing plants to ports, each system is optimized for its role, balancing capacity, durability, and environmental care. As coal handling evolves with automation and sustainability goals, conveyors remain at the forefront, proving their worth in efficiency and adaptability. Whether moving raw coal or loading a ship, these systems keep the world's industries powered and productive. You can get all types of coal conveyors and component from our company.
