Tube Chain Conveyor
Our Tube Chain Conveyor, also known as a Drag Chain Disc Conveyor, is designed for the gentle, enclosed, and dust-free transportation of powders, granules, flakes, and bulk materials. The system ensures minimal product degradation, low energy consumption, and reliable material handling for various industrial applications.
A Tube Chain Conveyor is an advanced mechanical conveying system that transports bulk materials through a completely enclosed tubular pipeline using a chain fitted with specially designed discs. As the chain moves, the discs gently drag the material through the tube, ensuring smooth and controlled conveying while protecting the product from contamination, segregation, and degradation.
Also referred to as a Drag Chain Disc Conveyor, this system is ideal for handling fragile, abrasive, or free-flowing materials that require careful movement without compromising product quality. Its enclosed design minimizes dust emissions, improves workplace safety, and maintains a clean production environment.
Our Tube Chain Conveyors are custom-engineered to meet specific process requirements, offering flexible routing with horizontal, vertical, and inclined conveying options for efficient integration into existing production lines.
