A '''Disc conveyor''' is an innovative mechanical [[conveyors]]. Material is filled through the inlet hopper into the tube, in which it is conveyed to the outlet by disc cable. Discs play the part of scrapers, or buckets in case of vertical, which enables the disc conveyor to convey even fine powders. | |||
Moving parts of the disc cable are composed of a stainless center cable with plastic discs at regular intervals, a sprocket wheel and a driven wheel at both sides of two parallel tubes. This disc cable engages with the sprocket wheel which is driven by a motor. | |||
