A Steel Mill Dust-proof Conveyor Shield Hood is a protective enclosure or hood installed over conveyor belts in steel production facilities. It is designed to control dust, enhance operational safety, and protect both materials and equipment in harsh industrial environments where high temperatures, abrasive particles, and heavy-duty operation are common.
Made from galvanized steel, stainless steel, or heat-resistant alloys
Modular design for easy installation and maintenance access
Available in fixed, hinged, or sliding configurations
Can be customized to fit inclined, horizontal, or multi-directional conveyor belts
Optional transparent panels for visual inspection
● Provide more safe and reliable conveyor operation and material transportation
● Rigid corrugated covers are infinitely stronger than smooth designs
● Overlapped edges double thickness increases conveyor cover strength
● Waves on surface to increase the support force, even can withstand a person.
● Symmetrical design allows easy placement, quick installation and safe access
● Complete specification,Suitable for 500~2000 belt width belt conveyor
● Various construction material to fit different application requirement
● Suitable for belt conveyor applied in different industries and sectors

Q1: What is a Steel Mill Dust-proof Conveyor Shield Hood?
A: It is a protective enclosure installed over belt conveyors in steel plants. Its primary function is to contain dust, improve safety, and protect the conveyor system from harsh industrial conditions like heat, debris, and heavy material loads.
Q2: Why is it important in steel mills?
A: Steel mills generate large amounts of dust, slag, iron fines, and abrasive particles during material handling. The hood prevents these from dispersing into the air, reducing pollution, protecting workers, and complying with environmental and safety regulations.
Q3: Can the hood withstand high temperatures?
A: Yes. Hoods can be made from heat-resistant materials suitable for environments with radiant heat, such as near coke ovens, sinter plants, or molten slag conveyors.
Q4: Are the hoods easy to install and maintain?
A: Yes. The design is typically modular, with bolt-on or hinged sections, making them easy to install, remove, and maintain. Access doors or liftable panels allow quick inspection or service access.
Q5: Does it help with dust control compliance?
A: Absolutely. The shield hood is an effective measure to contain fugitive dust emissions and helps meet air quality standards in compliance with local and international environmental regulations.
