Handle friable materials gently, efficiently, dust-free
FLEXI-DISC® Tubular Cable Conveyors (also known as Disc Conveyors and Drag Conveyors) gently slide bulk materials through smooth stainless steel tubing using low-friction polymer discs attached to stainless steel cable. The discs and cable are driven by a wheel at one end of the circuit, and put under tension by a wheel at the other end. This design allows single or multiple inlets and outlets, and the routing of conveyor tubing horizontally, vertically or at any angle, through small holes in walls or ceilings. Because components are modular, inlets and outlets can be added, removed or relocated, and the circuit lengthened, shortened or re-routed as needs change.
Features
Gentle conveying of friable materials including powders, pellets, flakes, granules, chunks, shavings, fluff and regrind, with no separation of blended materials containing particles of disparate sizes, shapes and bulk densities
Transfers material from single or multiple inlets to single or multiple outlets (ideal for packaging lines)
Modular components allow changes in conveyor routing, length, and the number and position of inlets and outlets
Low power requirements per volume of material conveyed
Air-free conveying eliminates need for blowers and filtration equipment
Maintains temperature and moisture levels of material being conveyed
Enclosed system contains dust, prevents contamination
Stainless steel components finished to food, pharmaceutical or industrial standards
Evacuates material, minimizing waste and facilitating rapid cleaning
Available with quick-clean accessories and CIP features
