MANY CHEMICAL makers overlook chain conveyors. That's not surprising because published information on them is sparse. Yet, these strong and rugged conveyors ideally suit applications such as special feeding units that call for slower transportation speeds over short distances and at moderate inclines. The angle of incline can exceed that usually used for belt or other conventional conveyors — even steep and varying angles are possible. Chain conveyors generally operate at relatively high discharge rates in applications that need great flexibility and pose load variations.
