The conveyor is a brother product of the pellet machine.

Conveyors are equipment for conveying materials. It is divided into many types: Belt conveyor: This is the simplest type of conveying equipment. It feeds from one end, lifts a certain angle and then conveys the material to another height. The inclination angle is generally controlled at 20 degrees.

When our site space is limited, we need a conveyor with a large conveying angle to save site space. The inclination angle of this conveyor is between 45-60 degrees. There will be baffles on the conveyor belt and skirts on the outside of the conveyor. This kind of conveyor with a large inclination angle is a skirt conveyor.

Scraper conveyor: Its characteristic is that there are many scrapers on the conveyor and chains on both sides. There are many drop ports at the bottom of the conveyor. After the material comes in, the scraper will scrape the material forward and fall down at each drop port. To achieve uniform discharge of multiple discharge ports, this scraper conveyor must be used.

Bucket elevators are needed when the material needs to be lifted vertically. The material comes in from the bottom feed port, is lifted vertically to the top, and then comes out from the top discharge port. It is suitable for transporting materials with good fluidity.

Auger conveyor: It is divided into U-shaped auger and round tube auger.

Soft auger conveyor: It is suitable for more complex working conditions and can change the conveying angle at will. It uses a shaftless auger blade. It is more suitable for transporting materials with good fluidity such as grain and sawdust.

Net chain conveyor: It has chains at both ends and a net in the middle. It is mainly used for transporting materials when cleaning, drying or cooling materials.
