double plus chain increased speed of conveyor movement

Speed chains are designed to withstand higher loads than plastic rollers and can operate at temperatures up to 150°C, all while maintaining low noise levels. These chains are widely used in assembly and testing production lines, especially in industries like automotive and electronics, due to their high efficiency and reliable conveying ability.

• Operating principle: The work plate placed above the chain, along with the conveyed work piece, moves faster than the forward speed of the chain itself. If the chain moves at speed v, the linear speed of the small diameter roller is also v. The large diameter roller, rotating at the same angular speed, achieves a higher linear speed proportional to its radius. The resulting conveyor velocity V combines the chain velocity v and the increased velocity due to the roller diameter difference, typically reaching up to 2.5 times the chain velocity.
• Structural features: Includes rollers, inner and outer chain plates, pins, and sleeves. Rollers directly support the weight of the work plate and conveyed items, while rollers on the guide rail allow sliding contact, enabling smooth material transfer.
• High load capacity and temperature resistance: Speed chains can handle higher loads and operate at elevated temperatures.
• Low noise and high efficiency: The design ensures quiet operation and efficient conveying, making production processes smoother and improving product quality and production efficiency.
• Applications: Ideal for use in assembly lines, testing stations, and other production environments for automotive, electronic, and similar industries.
