The core structure of the tubular drag chain conveyor is that a circular chain drives a nylon disc to pull the materials forward within a sealed pipeline. The entire process is completely enclosed, without any dust emission. It will not cause the tea to oxidize, get damp, or be mixed with impurities. It can effectively protect the hygiene quality of the tea. This is particularly important in food-grade processing scenarios. At the same time, during operation, the materials move smoothly along the pipeline. The slow curved path transportation can minimize the crushing of tea particles and the generation of debris, completely preserving the shape and appearance of the tea.

Why Can Tubular Drag Chain Conveyors Transport Tea?
Tea (especially green tea buds, white tea, loose tea, fragile tea bricks) belongs to materials with a crispy texture, prone to breakage, prone to absorbing odors, and requiring high hygiene standards. The EXCT tubular drag chain conveyor is highly suitable for transporting tea due to the following characteristics:

EXCT Tubular Drag Chain Conveyor Characteristics |
Principle |
|
Low Damage (Preserving The Integrity Of The Tea) |
Low-speed, smooth conveying, ensuring maximum material integrity |
The materials move smoothly along the pipeline and are transported slowly in bends, reducing particle breakage; the chain moves gently and slowly to push. |
|
Prevent Cross-Contamination (Maintaining The Pure Aroma Of The Tea) |
Fully enclosed, easy to clean, reducing residues |
The entire process is sealed without any leakage, and no dust collector is required at the outlet; an online cleaning (CIP) device can be selected to prevent cross-contamination of flavors. |
|
Prevent Dust And Oxidation (Protecting The Quality) |
Closed pipeline transportation, capable of filling with inert gas |
The materials are in a sealed state from the inlet to the flange at the outlet, and gas can be filled during transportation. |
|
Flexible Process (Multiple Processes In The Tea Factory Are Seamlessly Connected) |
Three-dimensional bending, multiple points of loading and unloading |
It can be arranged horizontally, vertically, in bends, or in three-dimensional form, with multiple inlets and multiple outlets. |
What Are the Advantages Of Tubular Drag Chain Conveyor?
Full-Sealed Transportation
The tea raw materials being transported are always within a sealed pipeline from the feed inlet to the discharge outlet. They never come into contact with the outside air throughout the process, completely preventing dust from leaking out. This protects the workshop environment, ensures the health of employees, and avoids phenomena such as tea moisture absorption, oxidation, or cross-contamination. It also maximally retains the original aroma and quality of the tea.
Low Breakage Rate
The tea moves smoothly along the pipeline, with slow movement in bends. The entire process is very smooth, with basically no friction between particles. This effectively reduces the generation of broken tea and tea dust, and completely retains the shape and uniformity of the tea. This is particularly suitable for processing scenes with high requirements for appearance of famous and premium teas.
Three-Dimensional Space Transportation
The pipeline can be flexibly arranged in horizontal, inclined, vertical, and curved forms. It can change the transportation direction at will and can bypass obstacles. It can fully utilize the existing space, providing greater freedom for the layout optimization of the tea production line.
Multiple Feed And Discharge Ports
According to your on-site usage situation, you can set multiple ports for feeding and multiple ports for discharging. This enables a single chain conveyor machine to receive materials at multiple points and discharge at multiple points, achieving flexible connection of processes such as scorching, kneading, drying, and screening, and reducing intermediate links and equipment investment.
High Transportation Capacity
The maximum horizontal transportation distance of a single machine can reach 80 meters, and the maximum lifting height is 50 meters. When multiple machines are used in combination, the transportation capacity can reach more than 120 m³/h, which can meet the large-scale continuous operation requirements of your tea processing from raw material reception to finished product transportation.
Energy Saving And Consumption Reduction
The entire system is driven by only one motor, with low power consumption. Under the same transportation volume, it can reduce energy consumption by 50% to 80% compared to air-flow transportation equipment. Long-term operation can significantly reduce your electricity expenses and help control your production and operation costs for tea production.

Tubular Drag Chain Conveyor FAQs
Will this equipment crush the tea leaves?
No. The tubular drag chain conveyor uses a low-speed, smooth mechanical conveying method. The materials move smoothly along the pipeline, with a very low rate of damage. By adjusting the appropriate chain spacing and speed settings, it can meet the gentle conveying requirements for fragile tea leaves.
How to solve the problem of flavor crossover in different batches of tea?
The equipment uses a fully sealed pipeline, no dust collector is needed at the outlet, and supports online cleaning (CIP). This can effectively reduce residual substances in the pipeline and prevent flavor cross-contamination.
How does the equipment handle the moisture of tea leaves?
The entire conveying process is sealed, which can effectively prevent the tea leaves from getting damp or drying out. In necessary cases, protective gases can be filled.
How to maintain the equipment on a daily basis?
The key maintenance points include cleaning, tightening, adjusting, lubricating, and anti-corrosion. Special attention should be paid to regular lubrication and inspection of parts such as chains and bearings to prevent oil accumulation. The conveying chain and discs are wear-prone parts, and it is recommended to choose high-strength and wear-resistant chains to extend their lifespan.
How to select the equipment?
It is necessary to select based on the material size, output, conveying distance/height, on-site space, and material requirements. For corrosive or food-grade scenarios, 304/316L stainless steel is recommended.
