Switch to Plastic Modular Chain for More Efficient Conveyance - 2

Don’t you feel maintenance of belt conveyors are troublesome or that belt service life is too short? Our highly durable plastic modular chains enable various layouts, more convenient and efficient conveying with excellent satisfaction. SWITCH PLASTIC MODULAR A whole conveyor belt needs to be replaced due to damage or breakage. Meandering can cause belt ends to fray, resulting in the intrusion of foreign matter. Slippage between belt and pulley can cause fluctuations in conveyance speed. Accumulation can cause scratches to conveyed items. Conveyor belts subjected to oil could be swollen.

Ideal for switching from belt conveyors SWITCH T0 PLASTIC MODULAR CHAIN For more efﬁcient conveyance Capable of various layouts : Transfer sections Straight transfer Easy straight transfer by small pitch plastic modular chains. Orthogonal transfer No necessary for a dead plate (easy adjustment). When used with belt conveyors No dead plate (orthogonal layout) Use of a dead plate can be eliminated for orthogonal layouts. Compared to using a curved belt conveyor, a space and the number of motors can be reduced. And transfer adjustment in difference height at front and rear of the orthogonal...
