Description Chain conveyor – heavy duty
The Jansen&Heuning chain conveyor is a robust and fully enclosed conveying system designed to efficiently transport bulk materials such as powders, granules and food products. By using a chain with extended scrapers, the product is dragged along the bottom of the trough. This system is suitable for both short and long distances.
Application chain conveyor heavy duty
If products are non-sticky, they are suitable for a chain conveyor.
- Products that are readily possible:
– Granules: all types of grain, animal feed, cement, biomass, lime, sulphur, cocoa beans, coffee beans, sugar, salt, nuts, peanuts, almonds, sand, gravel, etc.
– Powders: flour, meal, semolina, starch, milk powder, cocoa powder, dried vegetables, bentonite, fly ash, stone meal, etc. - In industries such as agriculture, chemical, food, food ingredients, minerals, construction materials, biomass, recycling industry, wastewater treatment, etc.
- Chain conveyors are suitable for much higher temperatures than conveyor belts. All components are made of steel and can be manufactured in heat-resistant steel if required.
- Chain conveyors are most suitable for lengths from 8 to 80 metres. The limiting factor for the length is the tensile load in the chain.
- Multiple volumetric dosing inlets and outlets with or without slide gates can be freely positioned, for example for unloading or filling a row of silos.
- For transport in two directions, either a double bottom or two drives are applied
- Applicable in straight, Z-, S-, or C–shaped routes

Advantages heavy duty chain conveyor
- Fully enclosed, therefore dust-tight and safe
- Easy to operate under negative pressure with a small spot filter
- Suitable for high temperatures
- No contamination when changing product
- More energy efficient than screw conveyors, especially when using plastic bottom plates
- Long service life when chain speed is properly selected
- Volumetric inlets on all positions
- Outlets with or without slide gate on all possible positions
- Low and simple maintenance
- Chain tension easy to adjust at the tensioning station
- Due to the low speed, limited ATEX provisions required when applicable
