The 8 components of a suspension conveyor chain

The suspension conveyor chain is an important part of the powder coating production line and is responsible for the suspension and transport of the workpiece through the line. The suspension conveyor chain consists of the following components:


The 8 components of a suspension conveyor chain


1.         Drive mechanism: The drive mechanism provides the power to enable the chain to run smoothly. It usually consists of an electric motor, reducer and drive unit to ensure stable chain operation and proper speed.

2.         Weight Tensioning Device: The weight tensioning device is used to adjust the tension of the chain and maintain the proper tightness of the chain to ensure the stability and reliability of the chain during operation.

3.         Chain: The chain is the main load-bearing part of the suspension conveyor and is made of wear-resistant material. It is robust and corrosion resistant and is able to withstand the weight of the workpiece and maintain a smooth transmission.

4.         Straight, curved and telescopic rails: The straight, curved and telescopic rails form the track system on which the chain runs. They are designed to ensure that the chain moves and turns smoothly on the line.

5.         Brackets: The bracket provides the support and fixation of the chain, keeping it running in the correct position and height. It is usually made of sturdy metal material and provides good stability and durability.

6.         Main Spreader: The main spreader is used to suspend the workpiece from the chain and to keep it balanced and stable. It is usually made of steel or other strong materials that can withstand the weight of the workpiece and ensure safe suspension.

7.         Electrical control system: The electrical control system controls and monitors the suspension conveyor chain. It includes electrical components, sensors, controllers, etc., which can realize the functions of starting and stopping, speed adjustment and position control of the chain.

8.         Automatic Overload Protection Device: The automatic overload protection device is used to monitor the load of the chain and to provide an alarm or automatic stop when the rated load is exceeded, in order to protect the safe operation of the chain and related equipment.
