En-masse chain conveyor for bulk material handling
Streamline your bulk material handling with a gentle, efficient system that eliminates internal disturbance and ensures smooth, continuous flow for diverse solid and granular materials.

Conveys and Elevates Bulk Materials Efficiently
The MoveMaster En-Masse Chain Conveyor from Qlar provides a robust solution for gentle and efficient bulk material handling in industries like chemicals, fertilizers, and cement production. Utilizing an en-masse movement principle, it ensures material behaves like a liquid, moving smoothly in a solid column without internal disturbance or pressure, preserving material integrity. The system is designed to accommodate a range of applications, handling solid granules with capabilities to convey vertically, horizontally, and around bends within a completely enclosed, dust-tight system. Available in standard sizes from 200mm, it offers flexibility to meet diverse production requirements, with two-way capabilities for bidirectional conveying.
The MoveMaster excels in efficiency with low power consumption, potentially running at a fraction of the cost of dense phase conveying systems, and supports continuous, fully automatic operation through basic control systems. Constructed with heavy-duty, modular components, it features high-strength chains, choke detectors, and overload switches for reduced maintenance demands and enhanced operational reliability. This system integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, offering multiple inlets and outlets for optimized material flow and is particularly favored for its environmentally friendly design, ensuring safe, contamination-free environments with minimal manual intervention.
