Overview<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Chain conveyors: Reliable transportation for heavy goods<\/h2>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t

Chain conveyors are mechanical conveyor systems that consist of one or more continuously circulating chains and are used to transport piece goods and bulk goods. They are particularly suitable for transporting heavy loads, pallets or oily workpieces and are characterized by their high resistance to wear and external influences. The manufacturing industry uses chain conveyors, for example, to remove chips, sheet metal parts or larger offcuts or workpieces from processing machines.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n

Added value<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

How chain conveyors boost your production<\/h2>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t

An efficient material flow is crucial for smooth production. However, bulky, heavy or sensitive goods pose a challenge in many companies. Conventional conveyor systems often reach their limits here, resulting in inefficient processes, increased maintenance costs and production delays. Chain conveyors offer a reliable solution to avoid these problems and optimize material transport.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Thanks to our innovative conveyor technology, you receive a scalable and future-proof solution that both reduces costs and sustainably increases productivity.<\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n

Our chain conveyors at a glance<\/h2>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t

Our chain conveyors offer tailor-made solutions for a wide range of applications and material types. Depending on the requirements, different conveyor types are used that have been specially designed for specific transport tasks.<\/p>\n\t\t

\n
\n \t\t\t\"Scraper\t\t
\n \t\t\t

Scraper conveyor<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Our scraper conveyors are high-performance systems for the reliable transportation of metal chips and other bulk materials. They are based on a chain system with robust flights that transport the material through the conveyor channel in a controlled manner. The enclosed design prevents chips or dust from escaping into the production environment. Thanks to the adjustable incline angle and flexible design, they can be easily integrated into existing production systems. Their wear-resistant design ensures a long service life and minimal maintenance requirements, even under demanding operating conditions.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\tto the system\n\t<\/a>\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n

Apron feeder<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Our apron conveyors are particularly robust systems for the reliable transportation of heavy and bulky unit loads such as sheet metal packages, castings or forged parts. They impress with their robust design and are ideal for use in demanding production environments. Thanks to their flexible line layout, they can be easily integrated into existing systems and convey the material safely both horizontally and with a slight incline. Thanks to their durable construction and maintenance-friendly design, they guarantee smooth operation under high loads and a wide range of applications.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\tto the system\n\t<\/a>\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

Hinged belt conveyor<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Our hinged belt conveyors are specially designed for transporting metal chips, punching waste and other bulk materials over long distances. They consist of robust hinged plates that are connected via lateral chain strands and enable even material conveying. Thanks to their high load capacity, they transport both dry and wet chips safely. The design allows variable incline angles so that the conveyors can be flexibly adapted to the requirements of the production environment.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\tto the system\n\t<\/a>\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\t

Scrap conveyor<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Our scrap conveyors are specially developed hinged belt conveyors with a particularly robust design, which are designed for transporting metal waste and punching scrap. They have standardized conveyor cross-sections with variable effective widths and special conveyor chains with track rollers or flanged rollers. They are driven by shaft-mounted geared motors or geared motors with flange couplings. If required, the conveyor speed can be infinitely adjusted via a frequency converter in order to optimally adapt the material flow to the production requirements. These conveyors are available in horizontal or inclined versions. Depending on their size, they can be mounted on the floor or ceiling for flexible integration into different production environments.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\tto the system\n\t<\/a>\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n
