How to select conveyor chains?

 How to select conveyor chain? 1. Conveyor chains may break when an excessive load is placed on them. Be  sure to use any chain only within its proper load capacity, based on an  understanding of its structure and specifications. 2. Use of conveyor chains alkaline or acidic surroundings can cause brittle  fracture, so be sure to select a chain appropriate for the conditions in which  it will be used. 3. The performance of conveyor chains declines at high and low  temperatures, possibly causing them to break in some situations, so be sure to  select the right chain for the conditions.Warning: – The following points must be strictly observed when using  conveyor chains for vertical conveying.- People must not be the area beneath the conveyor system.- To prevent death, injury and equipment damage, use a mechanism to prevent  the load from falling in the event of a chain break, or take other safety  precautions to prevent danger.

What's the difference between hot oil black finishing and cold black finishing

What's the difference between hot oil black finishing and cold black finishing?Hot oil black finishing, also known as hot blackening or hot black oxide, and cold black finishing lies in the temperature at which the processes are carried out.Hot oil black finishing involves immersing the metal part in a heated bath of blackening solution, typically between 140 to 285 degrees Celsius (284 to 545 degrees Fahrenheit). The heat facilitates the chemical reaction between the metal surface and the blackening solution, resulting in the formation of a black oxide layer. This process provides corrosion resistance and enhances the appearance of the metal.In contrast, cold black finishing, also known as cold blackening or cold black oxide, is carried out at room temperature or slightly higher. It involves applying a blackening solution directly onto the metal surface without the need for heating. The blackening solution typically contains chemicals such as selenium or copper salts, which react with the metal surface to form a black oxide layer.The choice between hot oil black finishing and cold black finishing depends on various factors such as the type of metal being treated, the desired finish quality, and the specific requirements of the application. Hot oil black finishing generally offers better corrosion resistance and a more uniform black finish compared to cold black finishing. However, cold black finishing may be more suitable for certain metals or applications where high temperatures could potentially damage the metal or other components of the part.

Can ZMIE make drop forged chains with surface treatment black finished?

Does the guide wheel of Q-Fex leading trolley  need lubricating grease?

Does the guide wheel of Q-Fex leading trolley  need lubricating grease? Lubrication helps reduce friction and wear between the guide wheel and the track, ensuring smooth operation and prolonging the lifespan of the trolley. But the guide wheel of Q-Fex leading trolley has Self-lubricating bronze bush,so it doesn’t need other lubricating grease.

What is breaking load of X458 chain with 40Cr material?What is breaking load of X458 chain with 42CrMo material? If made of 42Cr, the UTS is 210KN.If made of 42CrMo, the UTS is 270KN.

What is the difference of ZMIE fork chain P14218 and P14226?

What is the difference of ZMIE fork chain P14218 and P14226? Though the pitch is same, P14226 chain has the high strength and extreme durability  make it an ever-growing option for conveying applications.

How to assemble X458 double wheel trolley with X458 overhead conveyor chain?

How to assemble X458 double wheel trolley with X458 overhead conveyor chain? We usually assemble X458 double wheel trolley above the chain like attached photo.We don’t have to assemble X458 double wheel trolley on every chain link,it’s depends on capacity for the  conveyor system you want to have.

Could ZMIE provide all the components on the 5T chain conveyor line?

Could ZMIE provide all the components on the 5T chain conveyor line? Yes, ZMIE can provide all the components on the 5T chain conveyor line, like 5T Caterpillar Driving Seat, 5T Tracks, 5T Turn-Wheel Curved, 5T Hangers…..

How many basic 5T chains does ZMIE have?

How many basic 5T chains does ZMIE have? ZMIE has 4 types of basic 5T chain: UH-5075-S, UH-5075HH, UH-5075-HV, UH-5075-HA

If the ZMIE trolley bracket can be zinc plated?

If the ZMIE trolley bracket can be zinc plated? Yes, it is ok to apply zinc plating to a trolley bracket. Zinc plating is a process whree a thin layer of zinc is deposited onto the surface of a metal object to protect it from corrosion.  Zmie trolley bracket would need to be properly cleaned and prepared before the plating process, but it is definitely no problem.
