Trough chain conveyors - Import export

The trough chain conveyor is an important piece of transport equipment for bulk goods in the field of continuous conveyors. Our trough chain conveyor can be operated up to an installation angle of 90°. The discharging and dosing is carried out in completely closed system and can also be designed to be dust-tight and pressure-tight. Each system is planned and designed individually and is tailored to the customer requirements.

At IFA Technology we use all types of pumps available on the market for conveying liquids. We consider all necessary requirements for the safe and reliable conveyance of your products. Solids can be conveyed mechanically, pneumatically and hydraulically. For mechanical conveying, screws, conveyor belts, elevators, vibratory troughs or tube chain conveyors are used. Pneumatic conveying is mainly applied in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries as well as for conveying granulates in plastics processing and the food industry. The pneumatic conveyance process is carried out by suction and compressed air, i.e. by vacuum or positive pressure, and is mainly used when sensitive substances are transported. Heavy substances such as cement, sand or gravel are mainly transported by positive pressure.

Like belt conveyors, also a chain conveyor is engineered with the purpose of transporting materials. Transporting materials on this type of conveyor commonly proceeds in a horizontal way, but also vertically over a short distance to a higher level is possible.
