Chain conveyor for grain and floury products
In the food processing industry, transporting grainy and floury products efficiently and hygienically is crucial. Challenges often include product sticking to conveyor surfaces and maintaining sanitation standards. Achieving high operational reliability while minimizing maintenance can be difficult.
Streamline grain and flour transport
The Chain Conveyor LBCB from Buhler is a versatile system designed to transport grain and floury products with efficiency and reliability. This conveyor is capable of customized configurations, fitting specific customer requirements seamlessly. It features plastic scrapers on each chain link and rubber cleaning vanes to prevent product buildup, thereby enhancing sanitation. Moreover, the inclusion of a zero-motion monitor at the tensioning station ensures operational safety by detecting chain ruptures indirectly. An overflow device in the driving station further enhances reliability by halting operation if product accumulation occurs. The use of high-quality steel in the trough bottom reduces maintenance needs and prolongs the equipment’s lifespan.
