What Is A Chain Conveyor?

The chain conveyor uses the chain plate as the bearing surface to convey the material, which is used to convey the material to 90 meters (300 feet), usually lower than 30 meters (98 feet), this article will introduce the lower chain plate conveyor for you in detail.

What is the application of chain conveyor?

Chain conveyors are suitable for many items that would not normally be conveyed on roller conveyors. Therefore, typical uses are moving pallets, shelves, industrial containers and any product with a solid undersurface. They are used in many industrial and commercial settings, including warehouses, automobile factories, and distribution centers.

What are the characteristics of chain conveyor?

1. Powered by a continuous chain, it is mainly used to transport heavy objects. Our chain conveyor systems are typically twin-strand configurations with the load on the chain, but multi-strand configurations are also available.

2. Large carrying capacity, the weight of a single material (piece) can reach 70-120kg, the conveying volume can reach 60m³/h, and the conveying distance can reach 90 meters.

3. It can be appropriately changed according to the conveying material and conveying volume. The angle is generally not more than 15° to prevent excessive material leakage. The inclination angle of the chain conveyor can reach 30° to 35°, and the bending radius is generally about 3m-5m. Customized models can be designed according to the conveying materials and process requirements.

4. The chain plate is made of stainless steel and engineering plastics. Users can choose suitable materials according to the conveying materials and process requirements.

Chain Conveyor Specifications

Chain plate material: carbon steel, stainless steel, thermoplastic chain, according to the needs of your products, chain plates of different widths and shapes can be selected to complete the requirements of plane conveying, plane turning, lifting and lowering.

Chain plate specifications: The width of the straight chain plate is 63.5, 82.5, 101.6, 114.3, 152.4, 190.5, 254, 304.8; the width of the turning chain plate is 82.5, 114.3, 152.4, 190.5, 304.8.

The above is an introduction to the chain conveyor. The chain plate conveyor is a conveying system used to move materials through the production line. It has a wide range of uses and is a conveyor with more varieties than other conveyors.
