Product Overview
The tube chain conveyor is a continuous conveying system designed for the transportation of powdery, granular, and other bulk materials. It is especially suitable for applications with limited installation space or height restrictions.The material is conveyed inside a fully enclosed pipeline, where a chain acts as the driving component and moves continuously along the conveying route. The system offers flexible installation and can be configured with multiple feeding and discharge points.With its closed-loop pipeline structure, the Tube Chain Conveyor can achieve horizontal, inclined, and vertical material conveying. The system can use stainless steel chains or high-strength steel chains. The discs are typically made of nylon, PP, or other suitable materials, ensuring stable and reliable conveying performance.
Working Principle
The tube chain conveyor operates by using a chain to drive specially designed discs that circulate continuously inside a sealed pipeline. As the discs move through the pipeline, they push and transport powdery and granular materials continuously from the feeding point to the discharge point.
Features and Advantages
The fully enclosed pipeline structure effectively reduces dust emissions, prevents material contamination from the external environment, and helps maintain a cleaner production environment.
The conveying pipeline can be arranged horizontally, vertically, at an incline, or in multiple directions according to the site layout, making efficient use of limited installation space.
The continuous circulation of the chain enables stable and uniform material conveying, making it suitable for automated production lines.
Multiple feeding inlets and discharge outlets can be configured according to production requirements, providing greater flexibility in production line layout.
The tube chain conveyor is suitable for conveying powder and granular materials and is widely used in industries such as food processing, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, new energy, and grain processing.
