On the whole, a chain is bent in transverse route only. Nevertheless, a 3D Bending Conveyor Chain is often structurally bent not simply horizontally but in addition vertically. It is used to get a conveyor line which moves vertically and improvements in path.
X Kind Chains for Trolleys, and Power & Free Conveyors
X-type Chains are employed for trolleys, and electrical power & free conveyors. They are drop-forged rivetless chains featuring high strength, lightweight and easy removal of components. The bottom left photo shows an X-type Chain used as a trolley conveyor with only one rail.
The bottom right photo shows an X-type Chain employed for a energy & free conveyor. An additional rail is installed to receive the load for higher transfer capability.
A electrical power & free conveyor generally has a so-called stop and go function to connect and disconnect conveyed materials with and from the chain, so that the conveyed materials is often temporarily stopped, mixed and stored.
Three kinds of X-type Chains are available according to required strength.
Z-type Chain for Light Load Trolley Conveyors
A Z-type Chain for trolley conveyors is utilized for service similar to that of X-type Chains described on the previous page, but is suitable for light loads. It really is widely made use of in conveyors supplying parts, and devices for storing and unloading parts on automobile assembling lines.

FH Sort Chain for Freeyor
An FH Type Chain is utilized for the same purpose as an X-type Chain and Z-type Chain. While X-type Chain is designed for heavy loads and Z-type Chain is for light loads, FH Kind Chain is utilized for intermediate loads. While X-type Chain and Z-type Chain may be vertically bent only slightly, FH-type Chain is often bent both vertically and horizontally, which makes it suitable for any conveyor line moving vertically. We manufacture three kinds of FH-type Chains different in pitch.
Towline Low-Selec-Tow Chain
A towline conveyor has a mechanism to convey dollies caught by a chain buried in the floor. Our chain for towline conveyor is called LST chain (Low-selec-tow chain).
LST Chain is usually bent horizontally and can also move on a slight incline. It truly is made by forging, and a recess for hooking a dog is formed at the center of each link.
