SS316L Tubular Chain Conveyor System for Hygroscopic and Bulk Materials
Efficient, Enclosed, and Explosion-Proof Powder Handling Solution
Product Overview
DEGONG’s tubular chain scraper conveyor system is specifically engineered for the safe, efficient, and contamination-free transportation of hygroscopic materials, powders, granules, and small lumps. Suitable for horizontal, vertical, or inclined conveying, this system offers a fully enclosed structure, making it ideal for dust-sensitive, explosion-proof, or hygienic environments such as food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries.
This system is fully customizable based on material characteristics, layout constraints, conveying distances, and downstream/upstream processing requirements.

Working Principle
The system operates via a continuous chain and disc assembly running inside a sealed tube.
-
Horizontal Conveying: Material is moved forward as friction between particles exceeds the drag against the tube wall. The discs gently push the material forward, creating a stable flow.
-
Vertical Conveying: Discs lift material upward; the lower feeding generates horizontal pressure, increasing internal friction and allowing stable upward flow even for fine or lightweight powders.
This smooth conveying action ensures low material attrition, efficient energy use, and reliable throughput, even in demanding environments.
📦 Applications:
Powdered chemicals, food additives, pharmaceutical granules, hygroscopic powders, battery materials, spices, plastic resins, flour, and more.
