Products Details
Chain-Driven Metal Mesh Belts
Chain-driven metal mesh belts should be considered whenever timing, transfer, and/or positive belt drive are important … in cases such as travel-up inclines, under heavy loads, for long distances, through quenching liquids, cooking oils, or other slippery conditions.
Chain-driven belts are also the only belts that are self-supporting. They can provide efficient operation in applications where friction-driven belts would not be desirable. Any mesh can be used in a chain-driven construction, but the selection is made on the basis of what is needed to support the product.
Balanced weave should be given first consideration, as it is economical and appropriate for most conditions. Gratex weave provides a closer mesh, while a Duplex weave is a close mesh that also provides strength and a straight-through opening. A conventional weave provides unobstructed openings.
Typical Applications
In food processing, chain-driven belts are used in washing, drying, cooking, freezing, dewatering, and blanching operations. In other applications, metals, electronic parts, chemicals, ceramics, leather, lumber, textiles, rubber, and many other products are moved through a host of processes where the positive drive is needed.
Chain Selection
Chains are normally selected according to the strength and speed required. The most frequently used types of chain for metal mesh conveyors are roller chain, employed for most room-to-medium temperature applications, and pintle chain which is recommended for heavier loads and higher temperatures.
Due to the important and specialized nature of the applications requiring these products, each inquiry is reviewed thoroughly. Our goal is to supply the most suitable belt for your specific application. We strive to provide solutions for each situation, assuring value for our customers. Our engineers and technical support group are involved in every specialty belt inquiry and order.

Can a conveyor chain be used in extreme temperature environments?
Yes, conveyor chains can be designed and manufactured to withstand extreme temperature environments. The suitability of a conveyor chain for high or low-temperature applications depends on the material composition and construction of the chain.
1. High-Temperature Environments: For applications involving high temperatures, conveyor chains made of heat-resistant materials such as stainless steel or special alloys are commonly used. These chains can withstand elevated temperatures without significant deformation or loss of strength. They are designed to resist oxidation, corrosion, and thermal expansion, ensuring reliable performance in hot environments.
2. Low-Temperature Environments: Similarly, conveyor chains can also be engineered for low-temperature applications. In cold environments, chains made of materials that remain ductile and strong at low temperatures are utilized. These chains are designed to withstand the effects of cold temperatures without becoming brittle or losing their mechanical properties.
It’s important to consult with conveyor chain manufacturers or experts who specialize in extreme temperature applications to select the most suitable chain material and design. They can provide guidance on factors such as material selection, lubrication, and operational considerations to ensure the conveyor chain performs effectively and reliably in extreme temperature environments.
What are the best practices for storing and handling conveyor chains?
Proper storage and handling of conveyor chains are essential to maintain their performance, prevent damage, and prolong their lifespan. Here are some best practices to consider:
1. Clean and dry storage area: Store conveyor chains in a clean and dry environment to prevent the accumulation of dirt, dust, moisture, or contaminants that can affect their performance and cause corrosion.
2. Adequate support: Ensure that the stored conveyor chains are properly supported to prevent excessive bending or deformation. Use pallets, racks, or designated storage containers that can accommodate the weight and length of the chains.
3. Avoid excessive heat or cold: Conveyor chains should be stored in an area with a moderate temperature range to avoid extreme heat or cold that can affect the material properties or lubrication of the chains.
4. Protection against impacts and vibrations: Protect the stored chains from impacts or excessive vibrations that can cause damage or deformation. Use suitable packaging or covers to shield the chains from any potential physical damage.
5. Lubrication: Apply a thin layer of appropriate lubricant to the chains before storage to prevent corrosion and maintain their smooth operation. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for lubrication type and quantity.
6. Regular inspections: Periodically inspect the stored conveyor chains to ensure there are no signs of damage, corrosion, or deformation. If any issues are identified, take appropriate actions such as cleaning, lubricating, or replacing the chains.
7. Proper handling techniques: When handling conveyor chains, use appropriate lifting equipment or tools to avoid excessive strain or bending. Avoid dragging or dropping the chains, as this can cause damage to the chain links or attachments.
8. Training and awareness: Provide training to personnel involved in handling and storing conveyor chains to ensure they understand the proper procedures and best practices. Promote awareness of the importance of careful handling and storage to prevent accidents and maintain chain integrity.
By following these best practices, you can ensure the longevity and reliable performance of your conveyor chains, reducing the risk of downtime and costly repairs.
How do you calculate the required length of a conveyor chain?
Calculating the required length of a conveyor chain involves considering several factors related to the conveyor system and the specific application. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
- Determine the Conveyor Length: Measure the total length of the conveyor path, including any horizontal, inclined, or vertical sections.
- Account for Sprocket Centers: Identify the locations of the sprockets or drive units along the conveyor path. Measure the distance between each pair of adjacent sprockets.
- Calculate the Number of Links: Divide the total conveyor length by the pitch of the chain to determine the number of links required. The pitch is the distance between the center of two consecutive pins on the chain.
- Consider Tension Adjustment: Take into account any tension adjustment requirements based on the specific application. This may include allowances for tensioning devices or tension variations due to load fluctuations.
- Include End Connections: Consider the length of the end connections, such as master links or connecting pins, which are used to join the ends of the chain. Include their dimensions in the total chain length calculation.
- Add Safety Factors: Incorporate appropriate safety factors to ensure adequate chain length for proper tensioning and to accommodate any potential stretching or wear over time.
It’s important to note that the calculation of the required chain length is an estimation based on various factors and may require adjustments during the installation and tensioning process. Consulting the conveyor manufacturer’s guidelines or working with an experienced engineer can provide more precise calculations based on the specific conveyor system and application requirements.
