About Our Aggregate Conveyors

West River will custom-design an aggregate conveyor system that solves dust, abrasive material, and influence transfer rate challenges. We’ll optimize the drive system, belt construction, structure, and dust control components.

Custom Aggregate Handling Conveyor Packages

Aggregate takes many forms, and its uses are varied. Mining, construction, and material processing/production are just some industries that need to move aggregate through their operations.

Every type of aggregate presents a unique conveying challenge, such as quarry dust, fines, fires, and abrasive materials.

Density, which ranges from that of geosynthetic aggregate to slag or recycled concrete, influences transfer rates, and required conveyor power. Some applications need only short runs, while others can span miles.

For these reasons and more, aggregate conveyors always need some customization. Structure, drive system, belt construction, and dust control are components that must be selected and designed to suit the application.

Aggregate Conveyor Types:

Custom packages typically include:

Aggregate Conveyor Accessories

Accessories can significantly improve the safety and productivity of people working around the conveyor system. They can also reduce maintenance requirements, extend service intervals, and improve reliability. We carry a wide variety of standard accessories for aggregate conveyors:
