Tubular Chain Mixer

The
The Tubular Chain Conveyor is an enclosed conveying system, comprising a tubular
that houses circular discs attached to a chain which convey the product, and a
system casing
tensioner and drive unit. System operation is totally dust free.

The Tubular Chain mixer provides continuous


mixing of product and comprises a rotary drum
(2), bearings (3) and drive (4).
Different products are discharged at inlets A, B
and C, using metering screw feeders to
transport the product via a tubular chain
conveyor (5) to a drum (2). The drum is
equipped with paddles (6) to ensure the
product is thoroughly mixed before it is slowly
transported towards the exit end of the tubular
conveyor. The outlet is located at the end of the
tubular conveyor (E).
The system is totally enclosed and dust-free.
Continuous mixing eliminates downtime for
loading and unloading of product, thereby
increasing productivity.

Silo Discharge Through Metering Feeder to the Tubular Chain Mixer

Variable chain speed 4 ft./min. to 100 ft./min. contributes to minimal product degredation.

The tubular chain conveyors are manufactured in Montreal, Canada by Luxme International, Ltd. in
technological and technical collaboration with Schrage Rohrkettensystem GmbH, whose tubular chain
conveyors have established a reputation in Europe for their reliability and performance in handling a
variety of materials.

A unique feature of the Luxme design is the idler automatic tensioner that continuously tensions the
entire length of chain in the product conveying path, while maintaining zero tension in the return path
by automatically compensating for the increase in chain tension due to Friction More product flow
Variation in atmospheric and product temperature Conveying disc wear Chain wear, etc., thus
minimizing the wear and tear of the conveying discs, chain and pipe.
