Air Slides provide an easy and controllable method of conveying and transporting bulk powders. They are used to pneumatically convey bulk powders from storage compartments or silos as part of some processing system.
The Air Slide systems and we supply often include in-built accessories such as bends, multiple discharge points, inspection ports and lifting lugs. They are typically used in the mining and cement industry.
Pneuvay Engineering supplied a complete AS500 Air Slides project for a major upgrade at the Queensland Alumina plant at Gladstone in Queensland. These Air Slides were all manufactured in Melbourne and included the following pneumatic conveying components:
A notable addition to this Air Slide system was the inclusion of standard inspection hatches to allow to review along and inside the Air Slide when required. The entire system was transported from the Pneuvay factory in Melbourne to Gladstone using several B-double semi-trailers.

Pneuvay Engineering supplied a complete set of AS400 and AS300 Air Slides to Blue Circle Southern Cement for their Waurn Ponds cement mill. Pneuvay's extensive experience in the transfer of bulk cement ensured the Air Slides were designed to allow for:
The Air Slides were delivered in standard three metre lengths to make for easy on-site installation. The cement Air Slide system features:
Pneuvay Engineering's experience in Air Slide design enabled them to optimise for the cross-section width and depth against its shallow angle along its length. Contact us if you require an Air Slide system that has difficult constraints.
