The circular pipe belt conveyor of Shandong Shankuang Machinery Co., Ltd. for the Lanzhou project was successfully commissioned in January 2026.

    In January 2026, Shandong Shankuang Machinery Co., Ltd. successfully completed the commissioning of a custom-designed tubular belt conveyor tailored for the Lanzhou region, officially making the equipment ready for operation. As a major drafter of the industry standards for circular tubular belt conveyors, Shankuang Machinery has integrated a number of patented technologies into this equipment, which precisely meets Lanzhou’s industrial needs and ecological protection requirements.

    As an environmentally friendly continuous bulk material conveying equipment, the circular pipe belt conveyor is widely used in industries such as ports, metallurgy, building materials, electric power, papermaking and petrochemicals. It is designed for transporting various bulk materials including coal, cleaned coal, coke, blended ore, sinter, ore powder, petroleum coke, limestone, sand and gravel, carbide slag, humidified ash, chemical fertilizer, salt, waste paper, phosphogypsum and pyrite cinder.

    Among these conveyors, the maximum pipe diameter reaches Φ600 while the minimum is Φ150. Their layout routes cover various complex configurations, including horizontal turning, vertical turning, S-shaped turning, spatial turning and 90° turning. All circular pipe belt conveyors have met the normal operational requirements.

    Shandong Shankuang Machinery Co., Ltd. has been engaged in the research of circular pipe belt conveyors for more than a decade. Up to now, the company has designed, manufactured and installed over 30 circular pipe belt conveyors of various specifications for the metallurgy, building materials, electric power, port and other industries, and summarized a set of solutions for circular pipe belt conveyors applicable to various scenarios.
