Double Plus Chain (also called Triple Speed chains) are used typically on accumulating assembly line conveyors. This chain's two rollers rotate identically according to the frictional force between the large and small rollers. Items are conveyed about 2.5 times faster than the speed of the chain (the chain speed according to the ratio of the roller's outer diameter) In addition, when braking forces are applied, slip occurs between the large and small rollers, making the chain to be conveyed freely. Double Plus Chain are available with 'snap covers' to keep particles out in resin rollers and with protective coatings (nickel, chromium plating).
Advantages of Double Plus Chain
-High speed conveying -Quite
-Improved stability
-Quick start up: through standardized guide rails and sprockets
Double plus Chain with Snap Cover
This chain is specially designed for preventing jamming caused by parts (like nuts and bolts etc.) falling into the conveyor lines.
