Move flexible products through a flexible conveying path
Spiroflow
The new heavy-duty Chainflow tubular chain drag conveyor (photo) provides gentle handling of powders and granular materials, particularly those that are fragile. The totally enclosed, dust-free chain-drag conveyor allows for flexible layout configurations, and can deliver materials continuously or in batches. Its crevice-free material-contact surfaces are suitable for food-grade applications, as well as higher-density materials or abrasive products, says the company. Similarly, its design is well-suited for non-smearing powders and high-density products, such as talcum powder, detergents, woodchips and pellets and more. This system offers a conveying capacity up to 370 ft 3 /h (10.5 m 3 /h), and can convey over long distances with maximum straight-line lengths to 250 ft (76 m) per conveyor, while multiple conveyors can be linked for longer distances. — Spiroflow, Monroe, N.C.
