Chain Conveyor Systems
Chain conveyor systems use driven chain strands or chain-carried attachments to move supported loads along a specified guided path.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Chain conveyor systems are rugged, durable conveyors used to transport products along a production line. They are suited to many items that wouldn't typically convey on a roller conveyor. Therefore, typical uses are to move pallets, racks, industrial containers and any products with a sturdy lower surface.
Chain tension, engagement and load sharing affect wear and motion. Matching pitch alone does not establish interchangeability of chain, sprocket and attachment systems.
What turns activity into demand
The material and transfer route determine carrying geometry, drive, support and containment. Belts and rollers are components; installed capacity also depends on loading and controls.
The commercial boundary
System configuration and belt material describe different procurement objects. Hygiene, incline and enclosure labels require evidence at the complete installation boundary.
Which drive engagement and load-sharing limits remain?
Chain tension, engagement and load sharing affect wear and motion. Matching pitch alone does not establish interchangeability of chain, sprocket and attachment systems.
