Standard Conveyor Chain
Conveyor chain, like§γ♦• transmission roller ch€'ain, can be manufactured to a ♥↑∏✘number of different international®∞ standards. The main standards ava♠•ilable are:
British Standard (BS)
This standard covers ch¶∑ain manufactured to suit t≠↕↓he British market andφ&•' markets where a strong British λ∏presence has dominated engineering← ™ design and purchasing. The standard is§♠ based on the original R• >enold Conveyor Chain design.↕δ
ISO Standard Chain
Chain manufactured to IS♦≈O Standard is not interchangeable with ♠≠© BS or DIN Standard Chain. Thi∏∞s standard has a wide a≤♥×£cceptance in the European market, excep₹α✔t in Germany. Chain manufactε§↑ured to this standard is beco>∑>×ming more popular and are used extensively in the Scandinavian↔ ₹ region.
Renold has extensive experience in the >☆manufacture of conveyor₩< chain. The Renold specification of c↑≈•onveyor chain has taken many Ω→ε®years in design and γ€₽development to achieve the optimu↓₽m product.
In order to ensure thisπ± is translated into Ωα≥product performance, we strictly§∞§ control:
- Materials
- Heat Treatment
- Processes
- Fits
- Attachment Assembly
- Lubrication
Renold Ultimate Reliability
- The key to Renold chain reliability is ™♣≤consistency in design and manδ←ufacture.
- Maximum chain strength and resistaσ'§γnce to wear are achieved by strict con¥ trol of the material specific£ ation and by using state of the art he"₩→Ωat treatment processes.
- The consistent overall tolerances×★±★ of Renold chain make i×✘♠♠t ideal for conveying systems requir↓αing precise alignment on multi-strand cΩ↔ hain layouts.
- Breaking loads exceed the minε©εimum international standards.
- Correct chain selection is esse¥♦ntial for optimum performan♣ce. Renold’s experienced design $>team are always available to freely advε∏≈ise on particular products a< nd applications.
Standard and Deep Link conveyor chain ₹£is available to BS4116 Part 4 as well €§as ISO 1977, with both Hollow an₽≥d Solid Bearing Pins.
Extra Strength Standard Conveyo★↕'αr Chain
To complement our standard range of ↕↑★<British Standard Conveyor γ£☆Chain, this extra strength c¶γhain is more suitable for conveyor applα®♥ications selected on ultimate tensile€£" strength (breaking load). Each↔®←™ chain is the same dimensio♠≠α↔nally as its normal counterpaλ→₩€rt, for example an extra strength 240'β±00 lbs chain has basically the same dim©£← ensions as a normal 12000 lbs series c¥φhain. This chain is used exte"↑↔nsively in the conveyingγ↕ of animal feed and ™πbulk food stuffs such as g≈&≠rain, maize, wheat and raw food mixtuσ₽↕ res.
Most of these applications use scra≈&®¥per type conveyor systems t±∞hat normally have long centre dista←♣¥±nces between sprockets. Such syste→♣∞ms are sometimes slow moving with lit£✔₩tle or no shock loading. Contact our ©₹×technical sales staff γ for selection and applicational☆≈₹< details.
