Chain tension, conveyor
The chain tension is to avoid chain
turning too slack after wearing while
working, therefore, chain can not
well-engaged and become
unapproached. Meanwhile, increase
the meshing angle between chain
and sprocket.
Visually check the chain tension
everyday, the lower edge of the
chain should not be over the lower
edge of the chassis. If exceeding
detected, please tighten the chain.
The conveyor chain should not be
too tight or too slack. An excessively
taut chain can cause the chain to be
stopped or to break when material
falls into the space between the
chain and the sprocket, therefore,
shorten the service life.
Adjustment of the chain tension:
Grease injection to tension the chain by using the grease gun. Put the grease gun to
filling connections (A), check the chain tension while filling the grease. Stop filling and
take off the grease gun when lower edge of the conveyor chain is at the lower edge of
the chassis level.
