What is a stainless steel chain conveyor?
A stainless steel chain conveyor is a transport device that uses stainless steel chains connected together to transport goods in a certain straight line. The conveyor uses stainless steel material with high durability and good rust resistance, so it is often used in harsh environments. With a simple design and sturdy structure, stainless steel chain conveyors are used in many manufacturing industries to help increase the efficiency of transporting goods.
Basic structure of stainless steel chain conveyors:
- Conveyor width: Depends on the width of the chain link: 63.5mm, 82.5mm, 101.6mm...
- Conveyor length: This is a modular conveyor design, so the length can be easily adjusted. Conveyor length can be up to 15m
- Using 304 stainless steel chain with high durability, anti-rust, good anti-corrosion, heat resistance and easy to clean
- Using high-hardness steel frame, good load-bearing
- Active and passive traction chain discs
- Conveyor motor, adjustable inverter
Standard features of stainless steel chain conveyor:
- Powerful: The conveyor system is strong and designed to operate in harsh environments
- Simple installation: Attached to the conveyor with standard accessories
- Compact: The conveyor equipment takes up the smallest possible space
- Safe: Ensures safety for products and users
Advantages of stainless steel chain conveyor
Some outstanding advantages of stainless steel chain conveyor:
- Flexible use thanks to modular design
Thanks to the modular design, the stainless steel chain conveyor system can be perfectly adjusted and integrated into the space you have available during production and your infrastructure. The system can be expanded, adapted or integrated into another process step at any time. Due to its stable, sturdy construction, the system is very flexible.
- Solid construction, high durability
Stainless steel chain conveyors have a sturdy steel frame, stainless steel chains are anti-oxidation, anti-rust, and have high durability. They can work well in conveying heavy materials, in harsh environmental conditions.
- Maximum cleanliness and simple cleaning
Stainless steel chain conveyors meet all the cleanliness requirements as prescribed in the food industry, pharmaceutical industry and hygiene industry, as the system can also operate without lubricants. Due to the efficient layout and design of the system, maximum cleanliness is guaranteed and dirt is minimized.
Disadvantages of stainless steel chain conveyors to note
Although stainless steel chain conveyors have many outstanding advantages, they also have some disadvantages to note:
- High cost: Compared to other types of conveyors such as PVC conveyors or rubber conveyors, stainless steel chain conveyors have a higher cost due to expensive stainless steel materials and complex manufacturing processes.
- Noise: During operation, stainless steel chain conveyors can make more noise than other types of conveyors, especially when transporting heavy materials.
- High maintenance requirements: Chain systems need to be lubricated and maintained periodically to ensure smooth operation and prolong their life.
- Difficult to replace and repair: When a link or part is damaged, replacement and repair can be more complicated and expensive than other types of conveyors.
- Heavy weight: Stainless steel chain conveyors are often heavy, making installation and movement difficult.
- Material entrapment risk: The links can create small gaps, creating a material entrapment risk, especially for small or powdery materials.
Stainless Steel Chain Conveyor Applications
- Stainless Steel Chain Conveyors are used in washdown environments as well as food-grade, high-temperature and abrasive applications.
- Due to their high standards of hygiene and durability, they are particularly suitable for industries with strict hygiene regulations, such as the pharmaceutical industry or the food industry.
- Stainless Steel Chain Conveyors are a special type of conveyor that can work well in acidic or alkaline environments, where there is a lot of contact with water.
- In addition, stainless steel chain conveyors also work well in high-temperature environments, and can be used to dry agricultural or aquatic products.
