Tracked Chain and Buckets

Tracked Chain and Scraper Buckets primarily transport products from the tremie to the silo or from the silo to the cleaning section. The chain part is made of steel or cast material, while the plastic parts are made of PE 1000 material.

Tanis Tracked Chain and Buckets: Reliable Foundation for Horizontal Transport

A Critical Infrastructure Element for Industrial Investments

In high-volume agricultural production lines, logistics continuity depends not only on conveyor performance but also on system durability, maintenance ease, and automation compatibility. Tanis Tracked Chain and Bucket systems provide high-engineering solutions that ensure operational efficiency, product safety, and sustainable production processes.

These systems not only transfer products but also optimize line integrity and production tempo, directly affecting investment ROI.


Risk Management for High-Capacity Lines

In horizontal or slightly inclined transport, disruptions can create chain-reaction quality issues. Especially for fragile or granular products, losses during transport significantly impact costs.

Tanis tracked chain systems eliminate this risk:

  • Low-friction buckets maintain product integrity during transport.

  • Minimized quality loss reduces reprocessing needs and avoids customer dissatisfaction.
