Short Pitch Conveyor Chains with Top Rollers

Short Pitch Conveyor Chains with Top Rollers

Short pitch conveyor chains with top rollers allow goods to sit on a roller and move along while the chain runs. They are used in applications where high speed conveyance is required. Top rollers can use metal or plastic to produce.  custom-made to meet specific needs is acceptable.

S-roller chains have special sprockets, which are used to engage each roller in turn. Standard sprockets typically have 30 teeth, and S-roller chains require special sprockets. S-roller chains are suitable for short or medium-length conveyance.

Small-pitch chains are also available. Short pitch chains have a variety of attachments, including chain tracks and moving roller decks. They are excellent for conveying products of virtually any shape and are ideal for applications where accuracy is required. These chains are highly flexible, can handle a wide range of operating conditions, and are a great choice for impact applications.

Choosing Sprockets for Short Pitch Conveyor Chains

Short-pitch conveyor chains have multiple options for sprockets. Most sprockets are working with the shaft using a set screw or an ANSI standard-dimensioned keyway. Depending on the chain pitch, these sprockets can range from 40 to 240 teeth wide.

The sprockets for engineered chains are typically larger and beefier than their power transmission counterparts. They also feature bolt-on tooth sectors that make it easy to replace worn teeth without disassembling the conveyor chain. These sprockets’ material is steel or aluminum, etc.

ANSI standards for short-pitch conveyor chains differ from those for European chains. For example, Japanese chains use the JIS standard for chain transmission, while Korean sprockets fall under the Korean standard KS B 1407. German industries also produce chains that conform to DIN codes, although they are less common. Those interested in the compatibility should contact sprocket manufacturers for more information.

When comparing sprockets for short-pitch chains, it’s important to remember that they are fit to a specific type of chain. While chain pitch is a standard that all chains must meet, it is important to remember that different chains are manufactured to different standards. The pitch of a chain is the distance between the center of the roller pin and the center of the next roller-pin center. In ANSI standards, chain pitch is measured in one eighth inch increments.

The pitch of a chain determines several characteristics, including its rotational speed. The smaller the pitch, the faster the chain can rotate. However, to maintain this speed, the chain sprocket must have more teeth. A smaller pitch chain also reduces articulating angle and produces a smoother motion.
