Disc Chain System

Disc Chain Conveyor System for Enclosed, Dust-Free Bulk Material Transport

MacDev’s Disc Chain Conveyor Systems are engineered for efficient, enclosed, and contamination-free conveying of bulk materials across complex plant layouts. Designed to handle powders, granules, and pellets, these systems ensure smooth material flow with minimal degradation and zero spillage.

With a compact footprint and fully sealed construction, Disc Chain Conveyors are ideal for modern process plants where cleanliness, safety, and flexibility are critical. The system effortlessly transports material horizontally, vertically, or in combined paths using a single conveyor loop.

Why Choose a MacDev Disc Chain Conveyor?

Unlike conventional belt or screw conveyors, MacDev Disc Chain Conveyors move material inside a closed pipe using specially designed discs mounted on a high-strength chain. This ensures gentle handling, dust-free operation, and consistent conveying even over long distances.

• Completely enclosed, dust-free material conveying
• Single system for horizontal, vertical, and inclined transport
• Gentle handling with minimal product degradation
• Low power consumption compared to pneumatic systems
• Compact layout suitable for space-constrained plants

How the Disc Chain Conveyor Works

The system consists of a continuous loop of wear-resistant discs mounted on a hardened alloy steel chain, running inside a closed conveying pipe. As the chain moves, the discs push the material forward in a controlled and uniform manner.

The enclosed pipeline design prevents dust emission, protects material from external contamination, and enables safe conveying in explosive or hygienic environments. Multiple inlets and outlets can be integrated into a single conveyor line.
