Light-Weight Conveyor Structures

CDI designs light-weight structures for conveyor systems, which use less material and are typically cheaper to build than traditional conveyor structures.

See below for notable projects. Click pictures for a larger view.

Walkway-Free Trolley
Dangote Overland, Nigeria, 2004

Maintenance trolley designed without a walkway, which reduces costs. Project was for horizontally curved, 6.9 km overland conveyor with elevated truss and trolley.

See project details. See video from trolley.

Light-Weight Conveyor Structure
Curragh Mine, Australia, 2007

Designed with a 10m span between idlers. Project was for horizontally curved, 20 km overland conveyor.
World's longest trough belt.
