Recently, a large coffee industry-specific machinery manufacturer in Brazil approached us due to the need for equipment updates in its factory. They visited our factory for a site inspection. At the beginning of this inspection, the client intended to purchase a steel rope type Tube Chain Conveyor for transporting coffee beans in their factory.
After our efficient communication in the early stage, the client arrived at our factory the next day for a visit. After the on-site inspection and our professional explanation, the client comprehensively compared the two types of tube chain conveyor traction methods and finally approved our plate chain type tube chain conveyor as being more suitable for their production needs. They clearly expressed their intention to make a trial purchase: to purchase one unit for trial use, and then based on the usage effect, they will further promote more bulk purchase plans.
Customer Background
The Brazilian client who came for the visit is a large enterprise in the local coffee industry, specializing in the research and production of machinery and equipment. It is a powerful and highly reputable company.
This enterprise has its own large-scale production base, with a mature technical system. Its core business covers the production and sales of equipment for the entire coffee processing process, serving numerous coffee processing plants in Brazil and occupying an important share in the Brazilian coffee equipment market.
As the Brazilian coffee industry upgrades towards scale and refinement, the existing coffee bean conveying equipment of this client has gradually shown problems such as insufficient efficiency, high material loss, and frequent maintenance. It urgently needs to replace a batch of efficient, stable, and low-loss conveying equipment to optimize its own factory production process. This visit is based on this core demand and is also the main reason for its active contact with us.
Initial Communication
This client initially contacted us through online channels and clearly informed us of their core procurement requirements: to find a steel rope type tube chain conveyor suitable for coffee bean transportation, with a particular focus on the conveyor's efficiency, damage prevention performance, and compatibility with their own factory assembly line.
Our professional team responded promptly and immediately engaged with the client's needs. We provided them with detailed explanations of the core parameters of our steel rope type tube chain conveyor, the exclusive optimization design for coffee bean transportation, and related industry application cases.
At the same time, our team, in conjunction with the client's factory's large-scale production scenario, also mentioned the core features and advantages of our plate chain type Tube Chain Conveyor, laying the groundwork for the client to make a comparison and selection. After patiently answering the client's questions about equipment stability and later maintenance, both parties quickly reached a consensus and finalized the details for the client to visit our factory the next day for a site inspection.
Visit Factory
After the client arrived at our factory, they did not stay for long. Under the escort of our team, they directly went to the tube chain conveyor production workshop and the complete machine debugging area, focusing on conducting a dual-line inspection.
In light of the client's factory's demand for large-scale and long-term production, our technical team focused on comparing the traction advantages of two types of tube chain conveyors with them: The steel rope type tube chain conveyor, although having certain flexibility, lacks stability in adapting to long-term heavy-load and high-frequency transportation scenarios, and requires higher maintenance frequency; while our plate chain type tube chain conveyor has a more stable traction structure, is wear-resistant and durable, and has more prominent advantages in preventing damage and low loss, which better suits the actual working conditions of the client's factory.
During this period, the client also visited our factory's quality inspection center under our escort, comprehensively understanding our equipment production process quality control system, intuitively experiencing our production strength and quality assurance capabilities, and further deepening their understanding of our two types of Tube Chain Conveyors.
After a comprehensive on-site investigation and our professional comparative explanation, the customer gained a thorough understanding of the applicable scenarios and core differences between the two tube chain conveyors. Eventually, the customer made a change in their intention: they decided to abandon their initial purchase intention for the steel rope type tube chain conveyor and instead confirmed our plate chain type tube chain conveyor as being more in line with their core requirements for factory equipment renewal.
The customer clearly proposed a cooperation plan to us on-site: they would first purchase one of our plate chain type tube chain conveyors for on-site trial production at their factory. If the trial use meets the standards, they will combine their own factory equipment renewal plan and propose more bulk purchase demands to us, hoping to establish a long-term and stable cooperative relationship and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results.
Plate Chain Type Tube Chain Conveyor Advantages
►More Stable Traction Structure
Compared with the steel rope type, our plate chain type tube chain conveyor has a more stable traction structure. It uses high-quality wear-resistant chains, which are resistant to wear and corrosion and have a longer service life. The conveying process is more stable, avoiding problems such as loosening, wear, and breakage, significantly reducing maintenance costs, and at the same time reducing the damage to coffee beans, maximizing the guarantee of quality. This is the core reason why customers choose us.
►Scene-specific Optimization
Our plate chain type tube chain conveyor is specially designed for the transportation of granular and powdered materials, and has been specifically optimized for the transportation of coffee beans. It adopts a flexible conveying structure, operates smoothly and gently, effectively avoiding damage, clumping and splashing of coffee beans. It also has excellent sealing performance, preventing coffee beans from getting damp or contaminated, meeting the strict processing standards of Brazilian coffee. It can optimize the workshop environment, reduce material waste, and fully meet the production needs of customers.
►High Efficiency And Stability
Our plate chain type Tube Chain Conveyor has high conveying efficiency. It can flexibly adjust the conveying speed and volume according to the actual production capacity of the customer's factory, perfectly meeting the requirements of large-scale production for the customer, and effectively solving the problem of insufficient efficiency of the existing equipment.
►Customization Is Possible
We offer the flexibility to customize the tube chain conveyor specifications based on the customer's factory site size, conveying height, and production capacity requirements. Customers do not need to extensively modify their existing production lines; they can quickly adapt and install it, significantly reducing their investment costs.
►Quality Assurance
The entire production process of our plate chain type tube chain conveyor strictly adheres to ISO international manufacturing standards. The core components undergo multiple rounds of non-destructive testing, performance simulation tests, and on-site working condition verifications, ensuring stable and reliable quality.
