Flexicon has expanded its flexi-disc line of tubular cable conveyors with the addition of a 6-inch (15 cm.) diameter system, more than doubling the capacity of its recently introduced 4-inch (10 cm.) diameter conveyor. The conveyor is intended for the gentle transfer of friable materials including virtually all beans, cereals, coffees, dried fruits, frozen vegetables, grains, nuts, beans, petfoods, seeds, snack foods, spices, teas and other fragile/friable food products. Low-friction, high-strength polymer discs slide materials gently, quietly and dust-free through smooth stainless steel tubing, which can be routed horizontally, vertically or at any angle, through small holes in walls or ceilings, over short or long distances. The system can be configured with single or multiple inlets that are metered and/or non-metered, and discharges that are valved or open.
