Modern Process Equipment (MPE) has launched its newest addition to its product line – the MPE Chain-Vey. This tubular drag conveyor marries chain and disc technologies to gently move products without the use of air. The Chain-Vey ensures the transport of particle blends without the risk of segregation or breakage, thereby making it an optimal solution for hundreds of products including ground coffee, dried foods, material chips, activated carbon and more.

Various sizes (4", 5", 6") meet nearly all capacity requirements and the flexible design is capable of making directional changes, in multiple planes and is constructed to meet the standards required in sanitary environments.

Aside from the intuitive benefits listed above, other Chain-Vey advantages include: sealed tube – contains aroma and allows for air-tight conveying; self-cleaning – eliminates cleaning between change-over; conveying distances up to 300 feet; flexible designs – multiple inlets and discharge points possible and four times less energy usage compared to pneumatic conveying systems.
