The AFC is powered by drive units located either at the maingate or tailgate ends or at both ends. The chain is driven along the face by the use of a gear and sprocket arrangement that transports the coal at a speed in excess of 1 metre/second. However some face conveyors are running at speeds as high as 1.6 m/s.
Abstract: This paper is a tutorial discussion of the current difficulties being experienced with the performance of armored face conveyor (AFC) drive systems as used in longwall mining. It presents the traditional approaches to the design of the drive system, and highlights the inadequacies. The final part of the paper presents a possible solution …

PurposeDue to the structural layout, mining process, and working environment, curved chains such as horizontal and vertical bends inevitably exist in the armoured face conveyor (AFC). With the increasing power, conveying capacity, and distance of the AFC, the dynamic influence of these curved chains should be highly …
An armoured face conveyor (AFC) is a chain conveyor, which is used in the longwall mining process to transport material from the coal face. The integrity of the AFC chain is a critical factor in determining the reliability of the AFC and maintaining the efficiency and profitability of a longwall mine. This thesis argues that the dynamic behaviour of an AFC …

Shear Strength. 6000 kN (> 674.43 tonf) Conveying Capacity. 1.15 m2 (12.38 ft2) The HBT PF7 conveyor line pan is especially designed for high-seam, single-slice coal cutting operations in seam heights of more than 6 m (19,68 ft) with heavy-weight sheares (140 – 160 tonnes /154 – 176 tons).
3. In longwall coal mining, the coal cut down by the shearer is transported by the armoured face chain conveyor (AFC), which is laid across the full face width, to the head entry T-junction, where it is transferred to the entry belt conveyor through the mobile stage loader. The armoured face chain conveyor has large carrying capacity. It is …

The shearer passes in both directions along the face to break coal and to load it onto the armored face conveyor (AFC). AFC transports the mined coal to the stage loader and onto the conveyor system which carries the coal outby. A built-in crusher in the stage loader breaks the coal to provide suitably sized material to the conveyor system.

Using the longwall system, the mine has previously set monthly and annual Russian national coal production records. The backbone of the PF6 Armored Face Conveyor, the line pan conveys material from the face and acts as the guiderail for the shearer, offering traction forces reaching 1 000 kN (224,809 ft-lb).
This is achieved by utilising an articulating Armoured Face Conveyor(AFC) which runs along the face with the shearer mounted on it. The AFC is made up of short …
There are many parts to an Armored Face Conveyor: shearer haulage system, drives, drive frames and sprockets, gearboxes, line pans, chain conveyors as well as entry conveyors and belt tailpieces. Each of these components has to be engineered to perfection, but also has to work together optimally with the other parts of the system.
