Tube chain conveyor, also called drag conveyor, is continuous conveying equipment conveying powder, granular, and other small lump bulk materials, which can horizontal, inclined and vertical combination delivery.
Description
In a sealed pipe, the chain is driven by a belt of animal material along the pipeline. When the horizontal transportation, the material particles are in the direction of movement of the chain in the direction of the thrust. When the friction material layer is greater than the external friction material and the pipe wall, the material will move with the chain sheet, forming the stability of material flow; when the vertical transportation, tube material particles by chain upward thrust, because the lower feeding to prevent the decline in the upper part of the material, resulting in a transverse lateral force, so it enhances the internal friction of the material, when the friction between the materials is greater than the material and pipe wall friction and material weight, the material with chain plate conveyor upward, forming continuous material flow.
Application
Fine Chemicals:
pigments, dyes, paints, carbon black, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, ceramic powder, GCC, light calcium, bentonite, zeolite, kaolin, silica powder, activated carbon, etc.
Pesticide Mineral:
urea, ammonium chloride, ammonium bicarbonate, baking soda, solid pesticides, tungsten powder, pesticide chemicals, copper powder, coal, phosphate rock, alumina powder.
Building material: cement, clay, sand, quartz sand, clay powder, silica, limestone, dolomite, wood flour, glass fibers, silica, talc, etc.
Food industry: flour, starch, grain, milk, and food additives.

Features
1. The volumetric delivery device, enabling materials delivery and metering. Easy to implement centralized control, increased automation, to meet the requirements of the modern enterprise for environmental protection.
2. Compact structure, small footprint, it can change the transport direction of the three-dimensional.
3. The material being conveyed between inlet and outlet flange is in the closed state. There is no need to set a dust remover at the outlet. When transporting materials can fill gas. Which ensure no dust leak into the environment during transportation.
4. Material transport smoothly along the tube, virtually no internal movement, so Less material damage, slow corners transport make fewer material particles generated debris.
5. Depending on the feeding case, the inlet distance can be more than 10 meters.
6. Sprockets have optimized shoulder, design optimization, the use of hardened chains having minimum wear.
7. The special delivery tray has a very low friction coefficient and stable transmission capacity.
8. May discharge at multiple points in the circuit; no special airlocks are required.

How to Select a Tube Chain Conveyor?
Selecting a tube chain conveyor involves considering various factors to ensure that it meets your specific requirements and operational needs. Here is a step-by-step guide to help you in the selection process:
Define Your Application Requirements:
Identify the specific materials you need to transport.
Determine the required conveying capacity in terms of volume or weight per unit of time.
Consider the distance and layout of your conveying path.
Material Characteristics:
Analyze the physical and chemical properties of the materials (e.g., size, shape, temperature, abrasiveness) to ensure compatibility with the conveyor.
Conveyor Design:
Choose a tube chain conveyor design that suits your application. Consider factors like single or multiple inlets/outlets, flexibility, and adaptability to different layouts.
Capacity and Speed:
Select a conveyor with the capacity and speed necessary for your application. Ensure that it can handle peak loads and maintain a consistent flow.
Energy Efficiency:
Consider the energy efficiency of the conveyor system. Look for features like variable speed drives or energy-saving technologies to reduce operational costs.
Ease of Maintenance:
Evaluate the ease of maintenance and access to key components. A conveyor with easily replaceable parts and minimal downtime can improve overall efficiency.
Material Containment and Cleanliness:
Choose a conveyor system that minimizes material spillage and dust generation. This is particularly important in industries with strict cleanliness standards.
Environmental Considerations:
Consider the environmental conditions of your facility, such as temperature, humidity, and the presence of corrosive substances. Choose a conveyor system that can withstand these conditions.
Compliance and Safety:
Ensure that the selected conveyor complies with industry standards and safety regulations. This includes features like emergency stops, safety guards, and proper documentation.
Cost Analysis:
Compare the initial investment cost with the long-term operational costs. Consider the overall cost of ownership, including maintenance, energy consumption, and potential downtime.
Supplier Reputation:
Choose a reputable supplier with a track record of providing reliable conveyor systems. Check customer reviews and testimonials, and inquire about the supplier's support services.
Customization Options:
Opt for a conveyor system that offers customization options to meet specific needs. This may include adjustable height, different tube chain materials, or additional features tailored to your application.
By carefully considering these factors, you can select a tube chain conveyor that aligns with your operational requirements and contributes to the efficiency of your material handling processes.
