En-Masse Chain Conveyors are designed to move bulk materials through a confined space using a chain system. These conveyors are ideal for handling a variety of granular, powdery, or particulate materials in an efficient and space-saving manner. The "en-masse" design means that the material is conveyed along with the chain, which keeps the bulk material in a continuous flow, minimizing spillage and allowing for efficient movement.
Key Features:
Chain System: Utilizes a chain with flights or paddles attached to it. The chain moves within a trough or enclosed casing, and the material is carried along with the chain. The chain is often made from durable steel or stainless steel.
Enclosed Design: The conveyor system is enclosed, which helps in preventing material spillage and contamination, and protects the chain and material from external factors.
Smooth Operation: Provides a consistent and smooth movement of materials with minimal friction and wear.
Advantages:
Efficient Material Handling: Moves bulk materials efficiently, with high capacity and minimal spillage.
Space-Saving: The enclosed design allows for a compact and space-efficient conveyor system, making it suitable for installations in limited spaces.
Durability: Built to handle abrasive and heavy materials with a robust chain and casing construction.
Flexibility: Can be configured for horizontal, inclined, or vertical transportation, depending on the application needs.
Applications:
Agriculture: Used for transporting grains, seeds, and other agricultural products in processing and storage facilities.
Mining and Bulk Handling: Ideal for conveying ores, coal, and other bulk materials in mining operations and industrial settings.
Food Processing: Employed for handling bulk food products, powders, and ingredients in processing and packaging lines.
Chemical Industry: Suitable for transporting granular chemicals and powders in manufacturing and processing environments.
