In chain guides, the chain guide profile is the special profile or shape of the surface on which the chain moves or contacts. This profile allows the chain to move smoothly, reducing wear and minimizing the guide. The chain guide profile makes the chain easier to guide or move on, while minimizing wear and energy loss.
Chain guide profiles can vary according to the design of the chain guides and the applications in which they will be used. These profiles are often specially shaped to increase load carrying capacity, extend the life of the chain and ensure energy efficiency. They can also be manufactured from different materials for use in a variety of industrial environments, for example, durable plastic materials such as PE1000 (UHMW1000) are used to manufacture these profiles.
The chain guide profile helps to improve the reliability and efficiency of industrial transportation systems by ensuring that the chain guides work properly and guide the movement of the chain. Therefore, it is important to choose the right chain guide profile in combination with the chain guides. This ensures a longer chain life and maximum performance.
If you are looking for long-lasting and high-performance solutions in industrial conveying systems, PE1000 (UHMW1000) chain guides and chain guide profiles blended with Makelsan Chain’s expertise may be ideal for you. These products offer a durable experience while increasing the efficiency of your production site with the features described above.
What is PE1000 (UHMW1000)?
PE1000 is a type of plastic known as Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) or simply UHMW1000. This specialty material is an excellent option for industrial applications. PE1000 has the following properties:
- High Resistance to Abrasion: PE1000 offers exceptional resistance to chain guide and abrasion, thus extending the life of your product.
- Moisture Resistance: Even when in contact with water or moisture, PE1000 shows excellent durability, making it suitable for outdoor applications.
- Impact Resistance: High impact resistance makes this material a great option for use in harsh industrial conditions.
- Chemical Resistance: PE1000 is resistant to many chemicals, so it can be safely used in a variety of industries.
- Suitable for Food Production: PE1000 can be used in hygienic applications including food production and processing industries and is FDA approved.
- Low Coefficient of Chain Guide: This material has a low coefficient of chain guide, leading to energy savings and lower maintenance costs.
