Conveyor chains are designed for facilitating the transfer of goods in a line; without causing delays in the production schedules. Conveyor roller chains are used in palm oil manufacturing concerns for moving raw material in between the stages of production. Made from special grade steels. The links are heat-treated and hardened for superior performance and wear resistance for handling material. Generally used for cane and intermediate carriers, Diffusers and much more
Conveyer belts are hugely used for loading and unloading systems for packing, transportation system for materials in different sections of sugar plant. Several non-contact sensors are situated above the belt to monitor the profile of the material on the conveyor belt.
Salient features of conveyer belts are: Longer working life with high conveying capacity and easy mobility of material. Should be robust and have high tensile strength with wear and tear resistant.
Sprockets can be manufactured from good quality cast iron or fabricated steel. For arduous duty, it may be necessary to use steel sprockets having a high carbon content. For extremely arduous duty the tooth flanks should be flame hardened. There are other materials which may be specified for particular requirements. Sprocket material varies depends upon normal conditions to heavy shock conditions. Three types of sprockets are cast, segmented and split.
