Product details
Chain conveyors are mechanical systems used to move materials through production lines using chains as the driving element. They're designed for heavy loads, harsh environments, and precise movement requirements. ⚙️ Key Features: Utilize steel chains running over sprockets. Items may ride directly on the chains or on fixtures mounted to the chain. Ideal for synchronous movement and tough industrial settings. 🧱 Types of Chain Conveyors: Slat Chain Conveyors – Chains with slats; good for bottles, boxes, and assembly items. Drag Chain Conveyors – Pulls bulk material (like grain or ash) through a trough. Multi-Strand Chain Conveyors – Several parallel chains to handle pallets or heavy loads. Overhead Chain Conveyors – Suspends items (e.g., car parts) from above for painting or processing. ✅ Advantages: Handles heavy and bulky items Reliable in dirty or hot environments Low slippage = precise control Can be installed in horizontal, inclined, or vertical paths 📦 Common Applications: Automotive assembly plants Manufacturing and warehousing Food processing (with stainless chain) Recycling, mining, and foundries
