Product Details

Chain-and-Folder Conveyor

A tubular chain conveyor is an efficient, sealed, continuous conveying system designed for powders, granules, small lumps, and mixed materials. It supports horizontal, inclined, vertical, and combined transport paths. The equipment operates by circulating flight chains within a sealed pipe to move material smoothly along the pipeline, minimizing dust emissions and product contamination. This meets production site requirements for environmental compliance, cleanliness, and automated conveying.

Compact design with a small footprint and flexible routing, customizable to fit your site layout and process flow. Unlike traditional conveyors, the tubular chain conveyor supports multiple feed and discharge points and integrates seamlessly with crushers, mixers, packaging machines, and silos—boosting production continuity and material handling efficiency.

Tube chain conveyors can be customized with carbon steel, stainless steel, or other materials based on the specific properties of the material being conveyed. They are ideal for industries including chemicals, food processing, pharmaceuticals, animal feed, building materials, metallurgy, and new energy materials. For production environments that require dust control, contamination prevention, enclosed conveying, or have limited space, tube chain conveyors offer a stable and reliable solution.

Device Features

Closed-loop conveying to minimize dust emissions
Material is conveyed in enclosed pipelines, improving the production environment and reducing dust pollution.

Flexible configuration for diverse operating conditions
Enables horizontal, inclined, vertical, and 3D combined conveying; ideal for complex plant layouts.

Smooth conveying with low material damage rate.
The chain belt moves materials slowly and steadily, making it ideal for conveying scenarios that require maintaining material integrity.

Compact footprint, saves on-site space
Compact ducted design allows flexible routing to fit on-site space.

Supports custom design
Customizable for non-standard requirements based on transport distance, production capacity, material properties, feed and discharge locations, and material specifications.

Easy to integrate with automated production lines
Integrates with hoppers, crushers, mixers, sieves, and packaging equipment to boost overall production efficiency.

Applicable Materials

Suitable for powders, granules, small pieces, and certain mixtures such as flour, starch, milk powder, seasoning powders, plastic pellets, chemical powders, animal feed, mineral powder, lime powder, carbon powder, metal powders, and new energy materials.

Industries Served

Widely used in food, chemical, pharmaceutical, feed, building materials, metallurgy, environmental protection, new materials, and automated production lines.

Custom Services

Based on your material name, conveying distance and height, production requirements, site layout, and equipment material specifications, we provide customized tubular chain conveyor selection, design, and complete line integration solutions to help you achieve efficient, clean, and stable material handling.

How it works

Chain-and-Folder ConveyorContinuous material conveying via a sealed pipeline chain system. Material enters through the feed inlet and is pushed forward by scrapers driven by the chain, then exits through the discharge outlet. The entire process occurs in a sealed environment, effectively preventing dust leakage and material contamination.

The equipment features a modular design that allows flexible configuration of horizontal, vertical, and turning sections to support multi-point feeding and discharge. The chain is manufactured from high-strength alloy steel for enhanced wear resistance, corrosion protection, and extended service life.
