Flow Conveyor Chain

Product photo
  • Flow Conveyor Chain conveys powders in a sealed case.
  • Tsubaki Flow Chains are found in a wide range of industries and praised for their high technology.
  • Our line-up includes horizontal flow chains, vertically inclined flow chains, and flow chains for grains.
  • Uses alternating stainless steel and special cylindrical bearings in a roller to provide lube-free operation in contact with water.

Features / Attachments

  • ・Flow Conveyor Chain conveys powders in a sealed case, which prevents dispersal, making it optimal for conveying loose materials safely.
  • ・We can provide a perfect attachment based on our long years of experience and success for your horizontal, vertically inclined, and grain flow conveyance needs.
  • ・Attachments use carbon steel standard, with stainless steel also available.
    Let Tsubaki recommend ideal base chain series to match properties of your conveyed items. Contact a Tsubaki representative for further information.
  • ・Types of attachments are as shown in the figure below. For details, please check details page from a product list.

Types of conveyor chain attachments for horizontal flow

Horizontal Flow Conveyor
  • ・Carbon steel attachments are standard, but stainless steel attachments can be manufactured upon request.
  • ・Base chain is either standard DT series conveyor chain or reinforced AT Series, but users can select other specifications to match a nature of a conveyed material.
  • ・In terms of price and delivery, W attachments are recommended over U2V and U2VN attachments.

When installing a flow attachment every 2 links, it is usually installed on an inner link.
In that case, an attachment type will be RL (example: 2LKL45RL) at the end.

Types of conveyor chain attachments for vertically Inclined Flow Conveyor Chain

Vertically Inclined Flow Conveyor

・Attachment types and applications

  • UM(Round) :Conveying general loose materials
  • UK(Square) :Conveying massive, loose, or adhesive materials
  • U2M(Round) 、U2NM(Round) :Conveying materials at a higher efficiency than UM
  • U2K(Square) 、U2NK(Square) :Conveying materials at a higher efficiency than UK
Types of conveyor chain attachments for vertically Inclined Flow Conveyor Chain
  • ・When installing a flow attachment every 2 links, it is usually installed on an inner link.
  • ・In that case, an attachment type will be RL (example: 2LUM32RL) at the end.

※Maximum allowable load is a value calculated based on Tsubaki in-house standards and is calculated strength. As long as there are no other constraints, maximum allowable load is used in selecting large size conveyor chain.
This value will differ by manufacturer and is not a guaranteed value.

※Contact a Tsubaki representative regarding average tensile strength.
