scraper conveyor chain

The scraper conveyor chain can be used to transport bulk materials in horizontal, inclined and vertical directions. It is often used for the transportation of raw grain, semi-finished products and finished products in grain and oil, feed processing plants. The scraper conveyor chain is suitable for the transportation of oil in the production process of grease processing plants. Transportation of raw grain from grain warehouse. 

It has the advantages of simple structure, good sealing, simple feeding and unloading device, multi-point feeding and unloading, flexible layout, and the ability to complete material transportation in multiple directions at the same time. The scraper conveyor chain of ZheJiang CHINAMFG Chain Factory adopts medium carbon quenched and tempered steel and cold heading die steel. The steel is moderately priced and easy to process. After proper heat treatment, a certain degree of toughness, plasticity and wear resistance can be obtained. Normalizing can promote the spheroidization of the structure and is suitable for surface hardening treatments such as high-frequency quenching and flame quenching. Application: After quenching and tempering, it can be used to manufacture medium load and medium speed work. The working principle of the scraper conveyor is to use the open chute as a bearing part for coal, gangue or materials, and fix the scraper on the chain (to form a scraper chain) as a traction member. When the driving part of the machine head starts, the sprocket on the driving head shaft rotates, so that the scraper chain circulates and moves the animal material along the chute until it reaches the machine head to unload. The scraper chain bypasses the sprocket and runs in a stepless closed loop to complete the transportation of materials. Other scraper conveyor chain uses and maintenance precautions have to be communicated with the supplier. The above information is for reference only.

Product Description

Can a bush chain be used in cleanroom environments?

Yes, bush chains can be used in cleanroom environments depending on the specific requirements and design of the cleanroom. Here are some considerations:

1. Material Selection: The choice of material for the bush chain is crucial in cleanroom applications. Stainless steel or plastic chains are commonly used because they offer excellent corrosion resistance and are easy to clean. These materials also have low particle generation, which is important in maintaining cleanroom standards.

2. Lubrication: In cleanroom environments, lubrication may need to be minimized or eliminated to prevent contamination. Self-lubricating bush chains or dry lubricants can be used to reduce the need for external lubrication, minimizing the risk of particle generation.

3. Design and Construction: The design of the bush chain should minimize the potential for particle accumulation. Smooth surfaces and sealed construction can help prevent the buildup of contaminants. Additionally, the chain should be designed for easy disassembly and cleaning to facilitate regular maintenance.

4. Cleanroom Compatibility: It is essential to verify that the bush chain and any associated components, such as sprockets, meet the cleanroom requirements and standards. They should be made of materials that are compatible with the cleanroom environment and meet any necessary certifications or regulations.

When using a bush chain in a cleanroom environment, proper installation, regular cleaning, and maintenance are essential to ensure optimal performance and prevent any potential contamination. Consulting with experts or suppliers familiar with cleanroom requirements can help in selecting the appropriate bush chain and ensuring compliance with cleanroom standards.

How do you properly maintain and lubricate a bush chain?

Maintaining and lubricating a bush chain is essential to ensure its optimal performance and longevity. Here are the steps to properly maintain and lubricate a bush chain:

1. Regular Inspection: Perform regular visual inspections of the bush chain to check for any signs of wear, damage, or misalignment. Inspect the sprockets and bushings for wear patterns or excessive play. Replace any worn or damaged components.

2. Cleaning: Before lubricating the chain, clean it thoroughly to remove dirt, debris, and old lubricant. Use a suitable cleaning agent and a brush or compressed air to clean the chain effectively.

3. Lubrication: Apply the appropriate lubricant to the bush chain. The lubricant should be specifically designed for chain applications and provide adequate protection against wear and friction. Consider factors such as the operating conditions, temperature, and speed when selecting the lubricant.

4. Proper Lubricant Application: Apply the lubricant evenly to the bush chain while rotating the chain manually or running it at a slow speed. Ensure that all the chain components, including the bushings, pins, and rollers, are properly lubricated. Avoid over-lubrication as it can attract more dirt and debris.

5. Tensioning and Alignment: Maintain proper chain tension and alignment to prevent excessive wear and premature failure. Check the chain tension regularly and adjust it as needed. Ensure that the sprockets are aligned properly to avoid side loads and uneven wear.

6. Regular Maintenance: Establish a regular maintenance schedule for the bush chain. This includes periodic inspections, lubrication, and adjustments. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for maintenance intervals and procedures.

7. Environmental Considerations: Take into account the environmental conditions in which the bush chain operates. Extreme temperatures, humidity, or corrosive atmospheres may require special lubricants or additional protective measures.

By following these maintenance and lubrication practices, you can ensure the smooth operation, extended service life, and optimal performance of your bush chain.

What are the main components of a bush chain?

A bush chain consists of several key components that work together to enable efficient power transmission. The main components of a bush chain include:

1. Bushings: Bushings are cylindrical components with a hollow bore that fit into the chain links. They provide a low-friction interface between the chain pins and the link plates, allowing smooth rotation and reducing wear.

2. Pins: Pins are cylindrical metal rods that connect the inner plates and outer plates of the chain links. They pass through the bushings and provide the rotational movement of the chain. The pins are hardened and precisely machined to withstand the loads and provide durability.

3. Link Plates: Link plates are flat metal plates that are connected by the pins. They form the main structure of the chain and transmit the tensile forces. The link plates are typically made of high-strength steel and are designed to withstand the applied loads.

4. Rollers: Some bush chains feature rollers that are located between the link plates and the bushings. These rollers allow smoother engagement with sprockets or other mating components, reducing friction and enhancing the chain’s performance. Rollers also help to maintain proper chain tension.

5. Retaining Clips or Rivets: Retaining clips or rivets are used to secure the pins in place and prevent them from rotating within the link plates. They ensure the integrity of the chain assembly and maintain the proper alignment of the components.

6. Lubrication: Lubrication is crucial for the proper functioning and longevity of a bush chain. It helps to reduce friction, minimize wear, and prevent corrosion. Lubrication can be applied through various methods, such as oil bath, oil drip, or periodic lubrication.

These components work together to provide reliable power transmission in bush chain systems. The precise design and construction of each component contribute to the overall strength, durability, and efficiency of the chain.
