1. High Load Capacity & Impact Resistance
The 175mm wide chain plate distributes heavy product loads across a larger surface, reducing point stress. Constructed from impact‑modified POM or POK, it withstands dropped items, pallet impacts, and continuous heavy operation without cracking or deforming. This durability extends chain life in demanding environments such as beverage depalletizing or automotive parts handling.
2. True Curved Conveying without Transfer Points
The flexible hinge design allows the chain to navigate horizontal curves (minimum radius typically 600–800mm) while maintaining full product support. No dead plates or powered transfers are needed at bends, eliminating jam points and reducing maintenance. This enables continuous flow around pillars or machinery, optimizing floor space utilization.
3. Modular & Tool‑Free Repair
Individual chain plates can be replaced using only a plastic mallet and a removing tool, without dismantling the entire conveyor. The modular design reduces spare parts inventory – only damaged plates need replacement. Standard sprockets and wear strips are compatible across straight and curved sections, simplifying system design and maintenance.
Product Uses
1. Beverage & Container Case Conveying
The 175 flexible chain plate transports full or empty cases of bottles, cans, and PET containers through depalletizers, fillers, packers, and palletizers. Its wide surface supports case bottoms fully, preventing tipping. Curved sections allow smooth flow around filling blocks or accumulation tables. The chain handles heavy multi‑pack cartons without sagging or jamming.
2. Automotive Parts & Heavy Component Assembly
In engine, transmission, or wheel assembly lines, the 175 chain plate moves heavy metal components, pallets, or fixtures between stations. Its impact resistance tolerates loading by industrial robots or overhead hoists. The chain can include anti‑skid inserts or cleats to prevent part shifting during curved conveying or inclined sections.
3. Warehouse & Logistics Sorting Systems
For distribution centers handling large parcel bags, corrugated boxes, or totes, the 175 chain plate provides a stable, low‑friction surface for accumulation and sorting. Its quiet, lubrication‑free operation suits office‑adjacent facilities. The chain integrates with diverters, gates, and sensors for automated scanning and redirecting. Modular sections allow easy reconfiguration as warehouse layouts change.














The 175 Flexible Chain Plate is a modular conveyor chain designed for product conveying in industrial production and logistics systems. With a 175mm nominal width and hinged construction, it supports both straight and horizontal curved conveying paths without transfer points at corners.

Standard POM chain plates operate within a temperature range of -40°C to 90°C for continuous use. POK material options extend chemical resistance for facilities handling specific cleaning agents or process fluids. Technical data sheets with full temperature and chemical compatibility data are available upon request.
The 175mm nominal width represents a standard series size. Custom width configurations can be developed for volume commercial procurement orders to match existing conveyor frame dimensions. Engineering teams provide layout assessment to determine feasibility for non-standard widths.
Standard drive sprockets work for both straight and curved chain sections. Wear strips follow the curve radius but use the same material profile as straight sections. This component commonality simplifies spare parts stocking for facilities with mixed straight and curved line configurations.
Recommended operating speeds range up to 60 meters per minute for straight section conveying. Curved sections operate at reduced speeds depending on curve radius and product stability requirements. Application engineers can calculate speed limits based on specific product dimensions, weight, and curve geometry.
Produced under ISO 9001 quality management systems, these chain plates are part of a full conveyor component portfolio backed by patented double-layer synchronous belt conveyor technology developed through in-house research and engineering teams.
