Air slide Fabrics are air permeable fabrics used in air activated conveyors or bin/silo aerators for the conveyance of dry bulk powders. It is also be called air slide belt, air slide cloth, air slide canvas, air slide membrane. Polyester conveyor belts can be used in a variety of harsh environmental conditions, including high temperatures, moisture and chemically corrosive environments. Because the polyester conveyor belt material has a low friction coefficient and good wear resistance, it is suitable for conveying large quantities of materials at high speeds.
Our fabrics can be used at temperatures between -60°C and +150°C. The airslide fabrics are made from polyester yarns. We are also, however, able to weave fabrics to our customers’ specific demands for air permeability and mechanical strength.
Air slide fabrics use gravity to do most of the work without any moving parts, by tilting the air conveyor to flow the powder material, which flows through the porous media under the influence of low-pressure air. Air slide systems provide high-volume material handling with extremely low energy requirements because only small amounts of low-pressure air are required to move the material.

The design of polyester air-slip fabrics usually takes into account the characteristics of the material and the needs of the conveying system, and can be customized into different sizes, structures and surface properties to meet the needs of different industries and applications. They are widely used in production and transportation processes in various fields such as food processing, mining, chemicals, logistics, and construction materials.
