Description for the Drag Chain Conveyor.

Overview:

• Mechanical continuous conveyors, where material to be conveyed is moved inside a closed trough by a “Traction mechanism” with extended flights.
• Traction or Tractive force is the force used to generate motion between a body and a tangential surface, generally through the use of Dry Friction.
• The Dragging action of Link conveys the material at the required location.
• Drag Chain Conveyors are suitable for the Dust-free, Horizontal and Inclined conveying and metering of even the coarsest types of bulk materials. Available as Single Strand and Double Strand Conveyors.

Advantages :

• Independent Material reception
• Excessive Feeding
• Low Maintenance
• High temperature resistant ( up to 1200?C )
• More than 1 inlet and Outlet possible
• Because of closed trough easy fulfillment of safety regulations and environment protection. ( Dust & Dust Proof )

Types Of Conveyor :-

• Based On Traction Mechanism :-

1. Single Strand Conveyor :- Forged Link is present at Centre.
2. Double Strand Conveyor :- When 2 side Forged Links are present.

• Based On Conveying Direction :-

1. Horizontal
2. Ascending
3. Horizontal + Ascending
4. Horizontal + Vertical
5. Horizontal + Ascending + Horizontal
