The Cable Drag Conveyor, as an upgraded and alternative product to traditional belts and screw conveyors, integrates advantages such as enclosed environmental protection, low energy consumption and high efficiency, flexible layout, and wide applicability. It is a core equipment for achieving efficient material transportation in industries such as fine chemicals, food, and building materials.
Our Cable Drag Conveyor can adopt a design with multiple Inlets and multiple Outlets on a single unit, enabling it to supply materials to multiple production stations simultaneously. There is no need to configure multiple conveying devices separately. This not only saves equipment investment but also optimizes the layout of the factory and enhances the utilization rate of the workshop space.

Cable Drag Conveyor Applications
Cable Drag Conveyor is used by almost any industry that needs to move materials gently and quickly.
| Powdered materials | Common materials: cement, lime, carbon black, fertilizers, pigments, dyes, paints, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, ceramic powder, silica gel powder, activated carbon, etc. Features: During the transportation process of these materials by the tubular chain drag conveyor , they can achieve stable and continuous flow without causing wear to the equipment. The sealing performance of the tubular chain drag conveyor can effectively prevent dust from escaping, protecting the working environment and the health of the employees. |
| Granular Materials | Common materials: grains, sand, stones, ores, plastic particles (such as PVC, PP, PE, etc.), urea, ammonium chloride, ammonium bicarbonate, etc. Features: The tubular chain drag conveyor can ensure that these granular materials do not break or get clogged during the conveying process, guaranteeing the conveying efficiency. At the same time, its stable conveying performance also helps to reduce energy consumption and operating costs. |
| Small Particle Materials | Common materials: coal, mineral fragments, solid pesticides, fish oil, etc. Features: During the transportation process of these materials through the tubular chain drag conveyor, by appropriately adjusting the conveying speed and angle, it is ensured that the materials can flow smoothly within the pipeline. The flexibility and adaptability of the tubular chain drag conveyor enable it to handle block-shaped materials of different shapes and sizes. |
| Other Special Materials | Such as copper ore powder, coal powder, block phosphate, bauxite, clay powder, silica, dolomite powder, sawdust powder, glass fiber, etc. Features: These materials may possess unique physical or chemical properties, such as being fragile, flammable, or explosive. The airtightness and stability of the tubular chain drag conveyor make it an ideal choice for transporting these special materials. |
