Conveyor systems have been used for hundreds of years in various forms to transport materials and goods. In the late 18th century, the first conveyor system was used in coal mines to transport coal over short distances. Over the next century, conveyor systems continued to be developed and refined, with the introduction of powered belts and rollers, which made it possible to transport heavier loads over longer distances. The problems with these conveyor systems are belt slippage, belt tracking, material spillage, belt wear and tear, and belt mistracing. Therefore, the air conveyor system is designed to overcome these problems of belt slipping off, belt tracking due to misalignment of the belt to low maintenance of the belt due to wear and tear. Research from various source is used in this project research, and this air conveyor system should be able to move lightweight items inside a manufacturing and packaging facilities.
