sharp top chain for use in humid and dusty environments

The cusp chain, classified by guiding type, includes external guiding toothed chain, internal guiding toothed chain, and double internal guiding toothed chain. This chain transmission utilizes the precise meshing of chain and sprocket wheel teeth to transmit power and motion, ensuring an accurate average transmission ratio.

Advantages

• High transmission power and strong overload capacity
• Compact transmission size for the same working conditions
• Requires less tension force
• Operates reliably in harsh environments including high temperature, humidity, dust, and pollution

Disadvantages

• Higher cost compared to other chain types
• Susceptible to wear and elongation
• Poor transmission smoothness, with additional dynamic load, vibration, shock, and noise during operation
• Not suitable for rapid reversal transmission applications

In summary, cusp chains are ideal for applications requiring high power transmission in demanding environments, but may not be suitable for tasks requiring frequent rapid reversals or minimal noise and vibration.
