Product Description
Key benefits of conveyor chains
High load capacity - designed for conveying heavy materials (e.g. automotive parts, bulk goods).
Durability - made of hardened steel, stainless steel or plastic for long service life.
Flexibility - customizable with attachments (e.g. scrapers, paddles, hoppers).
Low maintenance - resistant to wear, corrosion and extreme temperatures.
Precision movement - used in automated systems (e.g. assembly lines) where precise positioning is required.

5. Selection Criteria
When selecting a conveyor chain, consider the following:
Material (steel, stainless steel, plastic).
Load capacity (static and dynamic forces).
Environment (temperature, humidity, chemicals).
Accessory requirements (custom scrapers, pushers, scrapers).
Speed and accuracy (high-speed vs. indexing conveyors).
We also provide Sprockets.
