A 2,7 km curved overland conveyor with a width of 900 mm travels at 3,5 m/s.



This overland conveyor system with a belt speed of 3,75 m/s conveys 3 580 t/h of coal a distance
of 3,742 km.



This 15,6 km single-flight curved overland conveyor is the longest of its kind in the world.

BATEMAN’s overland and long curved-overland belt
conveyors include curved, regenerative downhill and highlift
troughed belt-conveyor systems.


Straight and curved-overland conveyors:

  • convey to over 11 000 t/h
  • are amongst the longest in the world, with the longest one
    by BATEMAN having a 15,6 km single flight
  • are designed to ISO and CEMA standards using dynamic analysis and computer simulation to predict and compensate for performance under all operating conditions. This reduces cost and ensures an effective and efficient conveying system.

BATEMAN systems:

  • provide high speed and high tonnage
  • feature state-of-the-art horizontal and vertical curves
  • can be many kilometres long – the longest single-flight steelcord curved overland system installed to date is 15,6 km
  • are designed to ISO and CEMA standards
  • audited by international specialist
  • horizontal curves and long idler spacing
  • are cost effective and efficient
  • references up to 11 000 t/h and belt speeds of 6,7 m/s
  • all methods of soft start control
  • regenerative downhill systems
