Able to move material along at a rate of 35 to 40 feet per minute, the Slipstick Tube Conveyor uses the same gentle slow-advance/quick return motion of the conventional Slipstick to convey materials, coupled with a tightly sealed tubular transport section.  Because the Slipstick Tube Conveyor employs a differential drive and moves materials without moving parts, it is both durable and low maintenance. Its tight seal ensures a clean, dust-free environment, and the absence of exposed conveyor parts makes this system one of the safest available. 

Like the Slipstick horizontal motion conveyor, the tube conveyor won’t damage fragile materials, compact compressible materials, aerate finely divided materials, or segregate material mixtures by size or density.

With an excellent service history in harsh operating environments, the Slipstick Tube Conveyor has proven to be a highly effective, cost efficient conveying solution minimizing expensive downtime required for maintenance.

The Slipstick Tube Conveyor can be equipped with discharge gates, inlet and outlet seals, access ports, and available lengths of up to 200 feet and capacities of over 200 tons per hour.

Advantages of Horizontal-Motion Conveyors
The horizontal-motion conveyor offers a number of advantages over the conventional vibrating conveyors, screw conveyors, and drag conveyors that are often used in bulk-handling applications. Compared with conventional vibrating conveyors, which are usually powered by springs and convey material through impact, the horizontal-motion conveyor provides gentle and sanitary transportation of fragile materials such as food products, agglomerated powders, and extruded, flaked, or pelletized products.
