Tube Chain Conveyors

The tube chain conveyor is a mechanical continuous conveyor with rotating traction mechanism that is exclusively designed for conveying bulk goods. The self-contained conveying system essentially consists of driving unit, tensioning unit,
conveyor chain with transport discs, and serveral pipes connected via flanges.
While other continuous conveyors can generally only transport material in a straight line, our tube chain conveyor can change direction in terms of level and space.
