1. Flexible Curved & Straight Conveying
The unique hinge design enables the chain to navigate horizontal curves (typically minimum 300mm radius) without additional transfer mechanisms. This eliminates dead plates and reduces product jams at corners, allowing continuous flow around machinery or pillars. Straight and curved sections share identical chain plates, simplifying spare parts inventory and line reconfiguration.
2. Compact 44mm Width for Space-Constrained Lines
The narrow 44mm footprint fits into existing equipment gaps or multi-lane parallel conveyors. It maximizes throughput per square meter, especially for small bottles, vials, electronics components, or blister packs. Multiple lanes can run side by side without increasing overall conveyor width, making it ideal for high-density sortation and accumulation tables.
3. Maintenance-Free & Easy to Clean
The chain runs without lubrication – the acetal material provides self-lubricating properties that reduce friction and wear. No oil or grease means zero product contamination risk. The modular design allows quick replacement of damaged sections using only a plastic mallet. For food applications, the chain can withstand frequent washdowns with hot water or mild detergents.
Product Uses
1. Beverage & Container Handling
The 44 flexible chain plate is widely used for conveying PET bottles, cans, and glass jars through filling, capping, labeling, and rinsing machines. Its curved capability allows single-file or mass flow around filling turrets. Low backline pressure reduces container scuffing and tipping, while the non-lubricated surface keeps bottles clean.
2. Pharmaceutical & Small Parts Assembly
In cleanrooms for syringe assembly, vial filling, or medical device production, the chain provides contamination-free transport. The compact width handles small trays or single rows of vials precisely. Smooth surface prevents particulate generation. The chain can be integrated with stoppers, lifts, and diverters for automated inspection and reject stations.
3. Electronics & Battery Cell Conveying
The 44 flexible chain transports battery cells (cylindrical or pouch), PCB panels, and smartphone components between test and assembly stations. Its anti-static or static-dissipative grades are available to prevent electrostatic discharge damage. Curved sections allow efficient layout around pick-and-place robots. Low vibration ensures stable positioning for vision systems.
