Determining Conveyor Chain Conveyance Conditions

• ・Machine to be used
• ・Conveyed object
• ・Corrosion
• ・Wear
• ・Temp. of Material Conveyed (Room Temp., Others 　℃)
• ・Dimensions of Conveyed Items
• ・Weight of conveyed goods (MAX kg/each )
• ・Conveyed Amount (Bulk Materials ：MAX t/h )
• ・Conveyed Amount (Countable Item ：MAX kg/conveyor )
• ・Center distance between shafts (m)
• ・Total lift (m)
• ・No. of Strands (spaced m apart 　m)
• ・Chain speed (m/min)
• ・Maximum tension acting 　Tmax(kN{kgf})
• ・Chain pitch (mm)
• ・Attachments (att. Every link )
• ・Conveyance Method (Direct conveyance, scrape and carry, pushed by dog, direct conveyance, others )
• ・Operating time (h/d)
• ・Operation method (continuous, intermittent, with or without reverse)
• ・Lubrication (Yes / No )
• ・Motor (kW, r/min)
• ・Sprocket Teeth (NT, PCD　mm)
• ・Sprocket Bore Diameter (Ф　H8)
• ・Hub (Type B/C, Ф×L)
• ・Keyway (Necessary/unnecessary, Tolerance: Js9/E9, Parallel/beveled, Keyway width x keyway depth)
• ・Sprocket Tooth Finishing

• 1. Precision Welded, Machine Cut, Induction Hardened: necessary/unnecessary)
• 2. When unable to choose between a standard or specialty chain, the materials and attachments make it a special chain with special specifications. See sections regarding conveyor chain category and type.
