The hot billet conveyor was designed and used for transfer of copper alloy billets having a temperature of over 1000 oC and weight 185 kg to the automatic billet loader with minimum heat losses. The conveyor was designed with specific grades of steel to withstand high temperatures along with formed slats to contain relative motion of the materials to the conveying surface over decline.
A similar design of conveyor with quenching tank is suitable for use in high temperature quenching applications
