Asia Pacific’s International Mining and Exhibition (AIMEX) is Australia’s longest running mining show and has a history of supporting the latest trends and developments in the industry. The experts at TUNRA Bulk Solids will be presenting a session on “Bulk Materials Handling: Flow, Wear, and Conveyor Component Selection” which will provide practical insights into key challenges and solutions in bulk materials handling across mining operations. It covers material flow property testing and how it informs the design of hoppers and chutes to prevent common issues such as blockages and poor discharge. It will also discuss wear mechanisms affecting conveyor belts and chute liners, along with strategies for mitigating wear in demanding environments. Finally, the session will explore the selection of idlers as the key conveyor component to optimise reliability, efficiency, and service life.
