Every ton of bulk material (Iron Ore, Coal, Copper and Gold Ore, etc) exported from Australia, at some stage, is transported by belt conveyors. This project will deliver a step change improvement to conveying technology and halve the energy used to handle and transport our most valuable export commodities. The new technology merges the benefits of both belt conveying technology and rail to produce a continuous low rolling resistance bulk material transportation system. Advanced models and novel experimental equipment will be developed to model this new innovative system to ensure safe, efficient and reliable design.

在某个阶段，从澳大利亚出口的每一吨散装材料(铁矿石、煤炭、铜和金矿等)都要通过皮带输送机运输。该项目将带来运输技术的一大进步，并将用于处理和运输我们最有价值的出口商品的能源减半。这项新技术融合了皮带运输技术和轨道运输技术的优点，形成了一种连续的低滚动阻力散装材料运输系统。将开发先进的型号和新颖的实验设备来模拟这一新的创新系统，以确保安全、高效和可靠的设计。
