OverviewThe AHKG trough chain conveyor (Heavy‑Duty Line) is designed for horizontal bulk conveying at throughputs up to 1200 t/h. It is intended for material intake from rail or road pits and for downstream distribution or discharge in bulk handling and processing plants.
Key benefits- Extended service life: Core components use drop‑forged, hardened chain links for high tensile strength and wear resistance. Optional manganese steel chain guide bars and lateral casing linings further increase durability.
- Fast maintenance: Modular design with bolted segments enables quick access and replacement of internal parts to reduce downtime.
- Reliable operation at high throughput: Integrated safety devices such as a material level sensor in the drive unit and a zero‑motion monitor in the return unit detect chain issues early to protect the system and maintain uptime.
Highlight featuresThe Bühler trough chain conveyor AHKG moves bulk material over distances up to 150 m and supports continuous horizontal conveying with capacities up to 1200 t/h. It is suitable for receiving pits, bulk storage, handling systems and processing lines.
