Product Description


Chain Design Features
Heat Treatment
This process enhances the hardness and tensile strength of the chain, resulting in increased resistance to wear and the ability to withstand higher loads. As a result, heat-treated roller chains offer improved durability, reducing the need for frequent replacements and maintenance. This contributes to more reliable and cost-effective machinery operation in various industrial settings.
Shot Peened and Ball Calibrating
This method ensures a secure and reliable connection between the chain components, reducing the risk of pin migration, which can cause chain failure. Benefits of shoot pinning include increased chain durability, improved performance, and enhanced safety in industrial applications, as it prevents unexpected chain breakage or damage during operation. Additionally, it minimizes maintenance requirements and downtime, contributing to overall cost savings and efficient machinery operation.
Pre-Stressing
Roller chain pre-stretching offers several advantages in industrial applications. It reduces initial elongation, enhances wear resistance, ensures even load distribution, improves overall performance and reliability, and can lead to cost savings by extending the chain's lifespan and reducing downtime. Properly conducted pre-stretching helps identify any weak links before use, contributing to a safer and more efficient operation of machinery and equipment.
Pre-Loading
Roller chain preload, achieved through controlled tensioning, ensures immediate engagement with sprockets, leading to smoother performance, reduced wear, and longer chain lifespan. It enhances efficiency, reduces maintenance needs, and improves industrial safety.
