Industrial Plastics can design, fabricate and deliver plastic chutes and launders for your business. Some of our custom launder fabrications included a 19m long launder, 8 launders with varying lengths as well as a dozen removable collection launders. We fabricate with High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and support the structure with steel frames and encasings.
Why Use Plastic Launders?
Using a plastic launder guarantees resistance to factors like weathering or corrosion. Other benefits include:
- Moisture resistant
- Impact resistant
- Water resistant to abrasion
- Lightweight (when compared to alternatives)
- Long service life
- Conveying system efficiency
- Available in different sizes
- Easy transportation and installation
Chutes and Launder Differences
Launders are plastic holding containers used predominately within the mining industry. The containers move effluent, slurry or other chemical products from one point to another. Chutes are plastic channels that also move slurries and materials but is instead transported from one elevation to another. Both chutes and launders are both fabricated with HDPE plastic and have high abrasion qualities. Launders are most common as it is a more efficient alternative to piping in mineral processing equipment, where chemicals and materials inhibit the use of pipework.
Plastic Chutes and Launder Applications
Launders have specialised applications for the mining and resources industry. They include:
- Slurry containment and transport
- Chemical product containment and transport
- Water containment and transport
- Powdered ore containment and transport
- Pulp containment and transport
