Portable conveyor a result of technological innovation
An incline conveyor is nothing but an ordinary belt conveyor which is set at some angle to cover long distances between two points. Inclined paths have wide applications in almost every part of the industry for the transfer of heavy loads. Incline conveyors are made use of in mines, where there are grains
transported and separated from other grains and where ores have to be transported from one location to the other. Coal industry makes use of such conveyors on a wide scale as the production of coal takes place at the sub surface level and it needs to be bought at the surface.
Though the portable conveyor is a technological innovation, it also comes along with certain hazards. In spite of being portable they cannot the skip the safety factor and there are a few reasons because of which these conveyors can be hazardous. A portable conveyor cannot be fixed to the floor on permanent basis thus it can tip over any moment during the working process. It therefore requires proper installation and operation by skilled mechanics so that the system gets properly set and all the safety measures are followed. Therefore even after being a staple of modern assemblies, a portable conveyor can prove to be dangerous.
