Tanis Tube Spiral: Enclosed and Efficient Transport for Vertical & Inclined Lines
Controlled and Hygienic Product Transfer
In agricultural, seed processing, and granular product handling lines, safe, continuous, and balanced transport is critical for both quality and efficiency. The Tanis Tube Spiral offers dust-tight enclosed conveying and operates at high performance in confined spaces, inclined, or vertical lines.
It ensures consistent product flow, maintaining hygiene and process continuity.
Working Principle
The tube spiral system relies on a screw shaft rotating inside a cylindrical tube powered by a motor. Products are fed into the inlet and transported forward along the tube by rotational movement.
-
The rotational motion ensures a steady flow of products.
-
Enclosed housing prevents contact with the external environment, preserving hygiene standards.
