Chain Conveyors for Heavy Loads
Product Details: Item No. 145
Capacity: 5,000 to 10,000 lbs per unit load
Use: For heavy, wrong-way pallets and other heavy loads not conveyable on rollers
Material: Galvanized, carbon, or stainless steel construction
Overview
Choosing a chain conveyor is determined by need for load stability, when rollers are not sufficient, when pallet boards or tote runners are conveying the wrong way, when the loads are transferred, or when crossing-over is necessary. This twenty-five foot long, heavy duty, four-strand chain conveyor is for handling unstable loads up to 5,000 lbs each. The customer uses it outside of a foundry, for bins of hot forgings to index and accumulate while cooling down. The frames are galvanized and the chain is self lubricated. Proper OSHA safety guarding, although not shown here, was applied.
