The Scraper Conveyor is an advanced continuous transport equipment featuring aflexible traction component.
With its rectangular or U-shaped material trough, the Scraper Conveyor leverages the thrust force of the moving scraper chain link to create a continuous transport system. The scraper chains are embedded within the material during operation, hence the name 'embedded scraper conveyor'. This indispensable machine plays a pivotal role in grain processing plants and grain warehouses, ensuring efficient material handling.
Main Structure
The Scraper Conveyor comprises the following key components: trough,scraper chains,head wheel and tail wheel,inlet and outlet,drive device, and tensioning device.
Working Principle
1) Horizontal Transport
During horizontal transportation, the direct action of the scraper chain creates a force where the traction level and material cohesion exceed the friction with the trough walls. This cohesion forms a unified material flow, propelled forward by the scraper's thrust.
2)Vertical Transport
In vertical transport, materials are propelled by the scraper's thrust and their own gravity. The pressure created by the material on the bottom supports the material above, forming lateral pressure against the trough walls. This stabilizes the material flow, enabling it to move upwards despite gravity and friction.
Features
1)Simple structure,lightweight,compact size,easy to manufacture,install,use, and maintain.
2)Excellent sealing properties prevent dust dispersion.
3) Simple feeding and discharge mechanisms allow for multiple feed and discharge points.,multiple discharge points.
4)Flexible technological layout supports multi-directional material transport.
5)Scraper chain and trough components are prone to wear.
6)Transporting high-moisture materials may lead to adhesion, compaction, and floating chains.
