See how airslide fabric works

A sectioned line drawing of 3 bolted 3 m sections on a slope. Follow the air up through the fabric, and read the layer stack in detail B (bed → fabric → air chamber → base).

Slope

Illustrative slope ∠ 7° (to horizontal datum)

Slope sets how fast the bed travels — the demo speed is linked to it: now 7°, speed ×1 (slowest ×0.28, fastest ×1.9). These angles are demo settings: not an installation requirement, and not a start-up angle.

BB · Air slide cross-sectionThe fabric spreads the air across its whole working surface

↧Air feed along the run3 inlets, one continuous fabric

3 sections × 3 m = 9 m — only three inlets in total.

The fabric spreads those three points across the whole surface.

Without it, air only bursts up above each inlet.

Air into the chamberLow-pressure air is fed into the lower chamber at each section.
2
Through the fabricAir seeps evenly across the fabric's whole working surface.
3
Bed fluidisesThe bed lifts as a whole — friction drops and it starts to move.
4
Out to the dischargeIt travels down the slope and leaves at the tail end.

Air enters below

A blower feeds low-pressure dry air into the chamber beneath the fabric. The model is built from 3 m sections, each with its own inlet — 3 in total along the run.

Fabric distributes air

The flat woven layer lets air pass through evenly across its whole working surface, so the film exists along the entire run, not just above the inlets. Without it, air would burst out at each inlet only.

Powder moves onward

The bed becomes fluid-like and slides down the slope toward discharge. Change the slope and the travel speed changes with it: in this demo 4° barely stirs and 12° is clearly faster.

Original explanatory plate drawn from common air-slide construction. Geometry, flow, slope and the slope–speed linkage are illustrative — not a verified Shengquan equipment drawing or operating specification, and not a start-up angle or process threshold. Fabric thickness is really 4–8 mm; it is drawn enlarged so the layer stack reads.
