New pitch offering for attachment chain system
Cross and Morse's popular attachment chains now offer an even wider range of versatile and cost-effective solutions for mechanical handling applications
Designed to travel within a standard aluminium frame the triple-speed chain uses rollers manufactured in a range of durable engineering plastics which offer durability and damage protection for the conveyed product.
A choice of roller material-grade ensures the chain is perfectly matched to operational loads, running speeds and product to be conveyed.
As the system permits product to be held at a workstation or safely taken from the line at any time, without stopping the conveyor, production can be maximised and low-noise levels maintained.
Typically, C+M triple-speed chain is used within the brown and white goods sectors - IT equipment, audio/visual, domestic appliances etc.
C+M triple-speed chain copes with loading from 100 to 220kg (based on permissible load pull) and offers speed ratios from 0 to 2.60.
The chain is manufactured compliant to (ASA)/ANSI standard B29.1 and is operational in temperatures from -12 to +82C. Request a free brochure from Cross + Morse ...
