Abstract - This project presents a compressed air conveyor system that replaces traditional moving belts with directed air jets for material handling. An acrylic platform with angled perforations allows compressed air to generate thrust, moving parcels smoothly across the surface. The design minimizes mechanical components, reducing wear, maintenance, and operational complexity. It focuses on improving energy efficiency by limiting dependence on electric motors. The system also ensures clean and hygienic operation, making it suitable for sensitive industries. Testing shows effective transport of lightweight parcels with reduced energy consumption. Overall, it offers a sustainable, low-cost, and innovative alternative to conventional conveyor systems.
