Chain Conveyors

Chain conveyors are mainly used when objects need to be carried for a long distance. Powered by a series of single pendants the chain is driven by a motor and the materials suspended on the pendants are conveyed.

They are used heavily in the car industry to transport car parts through the plants. They are modular and can be reconfigured over time continually as the plant layout changes.

Chain Conveyors Maintenance

The cost of maintenance with chain conveyors is also lower. Chains can be replaced in a matter of minutes. If the chain somehow gets damaged it can easily be removed and replaced. Because it is modular it, any down time does not affect the entire line making it easier to identify the problem.

Another way to keep your chain conveyors maintain would be by changing the pitch of the bearing so it can withstand more weight of stress within the chain.

Our range of chain conveyors can provide a very effective solution but there are some factors to be considered.

Chain Conveyor Considerations

Not only is the size and the weight going to be a big consideration but also the distance and speed at which the system needs to operate not to mention the materials transported. Temperature is always a consideration but often noise level is the biggest consideration overlooked for any business looking to buy a chain conveyor system. This is why we offer a range of chain conveyors using plastic rollers instead of the standard metal ones to fix just that issue.
