TUBULAR CHAIN CONVEYOR Product Overview The tubular chain conveyor is designed for the safe and efficient transport of bulk materials, both fragile and non-fragile, such as animal feed, pet food, dried fruit, cereals, plastics, and chemicals. It preserves product quality, reduces operating costs, and ensures high flexibility—making it an excellent alternative to traditional conveyors. Role in the Production Process: This system connects the storage phase to the bagging phase, transferring materials from silos or loading points to hoppers and packaging machines. It guarantees a continuous, uniform product flow, preventing blockages or overloads and minimizing waste and product loss throughout the process. Key Advantages Product protection: Closed-circuit design prevents breakage, pulverisation, and contamination. Reduced maintenance: Few components, low-speed operation, and easy access points minimize service needs. Energy saving: A single motor drives the entire system, consuming far less energy than screw or pneumatic conveyors. Inverter control enables speed adjustment and over 50% energy reduction. Maximum flexibility: Can combine horizontal, vertical, and inclined sections—ideal for complex or limited spaces. How It Works: Products are gently moved by discs connected to a chain running inside a sealed tube. This ensures a steady, uniform flow while preserving material integrity. With adjustable speed and large bending radii, the system adapts easily to different materials and production layouts.
