FEATURES
- Plate Top chains
These chains permit a huge loading capacity, higher speeds and longer runs with a single drive. The
straight running 843- and the 1843-series have a roller base chain ANSI 40. The 12.7 mm small pitch
reduces the sagging effect and permits the use of smaller sprockets. They are recommended for step
by step positioning.
The straight running 1864- and 963-series have a roller base chain ANSI 60. The sideflexing 1874-,
1873-, and 3873-series have a roller base chain Side Bow ANSI 63 SB. They also very suitable for
step by step positioning.
Plate Top chains fitted with steel top plates are designed for abrasive and heavy duty or high-
temperature conditions. 963-, 1873-, and 3873- series, with “snap-on” plastic top plates combine
the benefits of a plastic conveying surface with those of a precision roller base chain: less slip-stick,
high working load and accurate positioning; the replaceable top plates are clipped on to the
protruding pins.
- Gripper chains
Main applications of Plate Top Gripper chains can be found in glass works. However, they can be used
in various other situations, such as crate handling and can manufacturing. Typical Gripper solutions
are omegas for easy crossing of production lines, all lifting and lowering with Gripper chain elevators.
The grippers are provided in 2- or 3-finger grippers for smaller products and in D-type Grippers for
other applications.
