The tubular
drag conveyor marries chain and disc technologies to gently move products
without the use of air. The conveyor ensures the transport of particle blends
without the risk of segregation or breakage, thereby making it an optimal
solution for hundreds of products including ground coffee, dried foods,
material chips, activated carbon and more. Various sizes (4-inch, 5-inch, 6-inch)
meet nearly all capacity requirements and the flexible design is capable of making
directional changes, in multiple planes, and is constructed to meet the
standards required in sanitary environments. Other advantages include: sealed
tube; self-cleaning; and conveying distances up to 300 feet. The flexible
design provides multiple inlets and discharge points possible, and the uses four
times less energy usage – compared to pneumatic conveying systems, according to
the manufacturer.
