Pipe chain conveyor is a new type of conveying equipment in the field of conveying equipment. In recent years, as the country has strengthened measures to improve environmental protection in various industries, dust-free conveying has been competing for bids from various industries because of its performance advantages. Commonly used in chemical industry, fertilizer, metallurgy, pharmaceuticals, feed, construction, etc. Its wide applicability makes it cover almost the entire industry and agriculture. After a period of use, the pipe chain conveyor has been widely recognized by all walks of life for its powerful performance.　　

The pipe chain conveyor not only has a much higher conveying efficiency than other conveying equipment, but also can continuously convey various bulk materials, such as powders, granules, small pieces, etc. The unique ring-tube sealing structure not only provides environmental protection for dust-free powder transportation, but also reduces the direct contact between toxic and harmful substances and the human body. The two conveying data are the highest among all conveying equipment: the conveying distance of a single machine can reach 60m, and the lifting height can reach 40m. In addition, its beautiful appearance, flexible erection and installation performance have been well received by various industries, making the entire production workshop clean, tidy and spacious, and upgrading it to different grades. It can be said that pipe chain conveyors are a major trend in the application of transportation equipment in the future.

Pipe chain conveyor

The pipe chain conveyor has a compact structure, light weight, small size and is not restricted by terrain. Traffic directions are easy to find. It can be a multi-point material inlet and a multi-point material outlet. It is also possible to change the transport direction in three dimensions. Such a powerful pipe chain conveyor has so many advantages and such high applicability. As long as the customer can accept these shortcomings of the pipe chain conveyor, he can place an order directly.

Pipe chain conveyors are expensive. Due to the use of ring pipe sealed transportation, the entire conveying system relies on the ring pipe, and the price of the ring pipe material will directly affect the cost of the pipe chain conveyor. Especially if anti-corrosion and anti-rust treatment is required, the material of the ring pipe is stainless steel, which is relatively expensive. Pipe chain conveyors should pay special attention to the maintenance of the chain. In the conveying operation, the sprocket machine drives the chain to rotate, and then the disc on the chain pushes the material to form a very stable material flow in the ring tube. Therefore, once the chain fails, it will directly affect the operation of the equipment, so the chain needs to be inspected and maintained every 3-6 months.

If the discs of the pipe chain conveyor are severely worn, they must be replaced. At present, rubber and plastic discs are widely used, and wear will inevitably occur during the pushing process, such as the material friction coefficient is large. Therefore, in order to ensure the conveying efficiency of the equipment, if the disc is severely worn, it must be replaced in time. However, generally speaking, optical discs can guarantee an effective service life of 3-5 years.
