High-capacity horizontal conveyor for bulk storage
In bulk storage and handling systems, high throughput and reliable conveying solutions are critical. Material intake stations and downstream distribution require a robust method to handle large volumes efficiently.
Handles up to 1200 tons per hour
The AHKG Heavy-Duty Line from Bühler is a trough chain conveyor designed for high-capacity horizontal conveying. It can transport up to 1200 tons of material per hour across distances of up to 150 meters, making it ideal for bulk storage, handling systems, and processing plants. The conveyor has core components like drop-forged and hardened chain links that provide high tensile strength and wear resistance. Optional features include lateral casing linings and chain guide bars made of manganese steel, extending the equipment’s service life. The modular design, with bolted segments, allows for quick and easy replacement of internal parts. Safety devices such as a material level sensor and zero-motion monitor improve system uptime by detecting chain ruptures early. Bühler’s AHKG Heavy-Duty conveyor is suitable for a range of industries, from food and feed to biomass and biochemistry.
