Heavy industrial chains are used in industrial transportation, lifting, and drive applications; It is the most important product for the business processes of the sectors.
What is Heavy Industrial Chain?
Heavy-duty chains, which are designed to withstand harsh working conditions and play an active role in various applications, are high-strength, long-lasting, and safe. These chains, which work smoothly under heavy working conditions, are especially preferred by the cement and iron, and steel industries.
What are Heavy Industry Chain Types?
With more than 40 years of experience, Makelsan Chain designs and manufactures many different types of conveyor chains. These are defined as Rotary Api Chain, Leaf Chain, Roller Chain, Flat Form Link Chain, and Gall Chain.
Rotary Api Chain, which is used in the iron and steel industry, rolling mills, asphalt industry, cement industry, chemical industry, sugar industry, wood industry, heavy load lifting systems, and pipe drawing plants, is produced in different sizes and configurations according to the sector where it will be applied.
Ideal for heavy-duty applications, the Leaf Chain (Fleyer Chain) is used as a counterweight chain for machine tools, elevator and oven doors, forklift masts, rotating frames, and similar lifting or balancing applications.
Roller Chain, another heavy industrial chain, adds agility and durability to transmission chains. Roller Chains are used in machinery applications such as the conveyor industry, wire, and pipe drawing machines, and printing presses.
Other important heavy industrial chain types are the Plain Form Link Chain, which has a high load-carrying capacity and can carry loads up to 90% of their own weight, and the Gall Chain, which is preferred as a heavy load-lifting chain in iron and steel and similar sectors.
Important Considerations When Choosing Heavy Industrial Chains
When selecting a heavy industrial chain, it is necessary to determine the operating conditions, calculate the forces to be applied to the chain, and decide on the technical details for installation. In order to ensure the maximum service life of the heavy industrial chain and to ensure that business processes continue without interruption, it is important to properly maintain and lubricate the chain.
Benefits of Heavy Industrial Chains
The most important benefits of heavy industrial chains are high strength, long life, and safety. It adapts to changing speeds or loading conditions, is more flexible, and is extra safe against severe impacts.
