B - CONVEYOR CHAINS TSUBAKI STANDARD ATTACHMENT CHAIN

Curved Attachment Chain

CURVED CHAIN Tsubaki Curved chain has additional clearance between the pins and bushings and between the roller links and pin link plates to permit extra flexibility and greater lateral displacement. The basic dimensions of this chain are the same as those of ANSI standard roller chain. ¥Available in Carbon Steel or Stainless Steel.

NOTE: Tsubaki’s unique design of the curved chain does not taper the pin, which allows the pin diameter to be uniform throughout.

Operating Hours

The main characteristic of this chain is that it has an engineering plastic sleeve between the pin and bushing. The engineering plastic roller is also available in combination with the engineering plastic sleeve.

1. The use of self lubricating engineering plastic sleeves eliminates the need for lubrication. 2. Excellent wear resistance ensures long life. 3. As no metal dust is generated from contact between the engineering plastic parts and the steel parts, your environment and equipment are kept clean. When using the stainless steel chain series, corrosion resistance is also added. 4. The use of engineering plastic rollers results in significant weight reduction compared to all stainless steel chain, (“S” roller type : 15% less, “R” roller type : 40% less). 5. With the use of engineering plastic sleeves and rollers, quiet operation is ensured (7 ~ 10 dB lower than stainless steel chain). 6. RS40, RS50 and RS60 with plastic sleeves are available upon request. Contact Tsubaki for details.

Notes: 1. Conveyor LAMBDA should not be used in drive applications. It is designed for conveyor applications where the speeds are generally lower and the center distrances are longer than those found in drive applications. Conveyor series LAMBDA has the same dimensions and the same working load as our standard attachment chain. All link plates have the same thickness as standard. 2. Drive and conveyor LAMBDA chains cannot be intercoupled. 3. LAMBDA II roller link plates are nickel-plated for easy identification. 4. Connecting links for C2080H-LAMBDA to C2100H-LAMBDA, C2080HNP-LAMBDA to C2100HNP-LAMBDA, and CT2080H-LAMBDA to CT2100H-LAMBDA have cottered pins.

Crossrod Conveyor Chain

Crossrod conveyor chain consists of two parallel strands of standard RS40 or RS50 chains, joined by crossrods on every link. RS40 chain is used for light loads such as conveying bread through coolers, wrappers and slicers. RS50 chain is for heavier loads. When sanitary, noncorrosive SINGLE COTTERED CONNECTING qualities are required, crossrods can be stainless steel. PIN WITH MILLED FLAT

B - CONVEYOR CHAINS The connecting pins have milled flats and fit into a D-shaped hole in the link plate to prevent pin rotation and give longer life. Chains are furnished in five-foot sections and run on standard ANSI sprockets. Removable two-pitch link sections are available for repair.

Ordering Information. Chains are available in carbon steel and stainless steel. Crossrods may be ordered in spring steel or stainless steel. One connecting pin is supplied with each chain section for connection. Additional pins may be ordered separately. Specify chain number and material combination desired. All sprockets should be ordered in pairs with keyways in line to evenly distribute loads to both chains. Two-Pitch Crossrod Conveyor Connecting Link Chain Section

B - CONVEYOR CHAINS TSUBAKI FREE FLOW CHAIN

Free Flow Chain B - CONVEYOR CHAINS

Free Flow Conveyor Ð this is a conveyor system where the speed of conveyed objects can be freely controlled and stopped at any time and at any position for accumulation or for performing a job at a station without stopping in the conveyor.

A typical application is, for example, an assembly or accumulation conveyor used in the electronics industry to transport consumer products such as TVs, VCRs, and radios, etc. Technical innovation in this field is very fast. To produce hi-tech products quickly, hi-tech assembly lines using quick and accurate chains are necessary.

Tsubaki has developed the most usable and advanced chains for Free Flow conveyors drawing on Tsubaki high technology and long experience as a leader in worldwide chain manufacturing. Tsubaki Free Flow chains have many advantages.

n How the Tsubaki DOUBLE PLUS chain works ¥ When Accumulating ¥ When conveying The large roller rotates freely in the opposite direction of the small Friction between the larger center roller and the small roller roller allowing conveyed objects to accumulate. We call this free allows them to rotate together in unison. The difference in flow conveying. diameter of the two rollers causes the speed of the conveyed object to be approximately 2.5 times the speed of the chain.

B - CONVEYOR CHAINS TSUBAKI FREE FLOW CHAIN

DOUBLE PLUS® Chain With Snap Covers

The best solution for preventing jamming. On conveyor lines, small parts, like nuts and bolts, sometimes fall into the gaps between the guides and rollers. These parts cause the

B - CONVEYOR CHAINS chain to jam when they enter the area between the chain and sprocket. Tsubaki DOUBLE PLUS chain with Snap Covers solves this problem. Using snap covers and new guide rails, the gaps between the rollers and guide rails are minimized. The end result is the elimination of chain jams caused by parts falling into the conveyor.

RS Plastic Chain “E” Series (Electro-Conductive Series) The special plastic used in the “E” series is electro conductive and permits electrical charge. These chains are suitable for applications where there is electric noise, electric sparks, or where dust collects due to static electricity. Volume resistivity: 106⏲¥cm “Y” & “SY” Series (Anti-Chemical Series) The amazing “Y” & “SY” series utilizes an engineering plastic which permits the chain to perform well even where chloride, acid, alkaline, oxidizers and most organic solvents are present. “SY” series is a combination of “Y” series plastic block links and titanium pins and performs well even when exposed to sulfuric and hydrochloric acid. “K” Series (Heat Resistant Series) The Tsubaki “K” series is made of a resilient new engineering plastic which can withstand environments where temperatures reach 284¡F. In contrast to plastic chains made of conventional plastic, this chain will not lose its valuable properties at high temperatures.

ATC Chain Lubrication Layout should be designed for optimal tool balance to Because precision is essential, lubrication is very important reduce the driving power required and the chain tension. for ATC chain. Proper lubrication forms an oil film which reduces chain wear, chain friction, and noise. The chain lubrication should be maintained as follows:

1) Lubrication Points a) Horizontal type Lubrication should be applied and maintained between the chain link plates and the bearing area. Apply the lubricant manually or automatically using a drip lubrication system.

2) Lubricant Selection General purpose oil is acceptable for lubrication, but the Positioning pin higher the quality the better. If the viscosity of the lubricant is Gripper too low, it will leak away and have to be replaced often and if the viscosity is too high, it will not reach the critical parts, and the lubrication will not be effective. ATC Chain The following lubricants are suggested: Lubrication oil: Mobile SAE #30 ~ 40 machine oil or equivalent. Gripper Frequency and amount of lubrication: ATC Chain Ensure that the bearing portion is always moist with lubricant. The amount of lubricant should be enough to ensure that lubricant reaches all critical points. If the tools are heavily used or the number of bending cycles of the chain is very high, increase the frequency of lubrication. Positioning pin Sprocket

TK TYPE OVAL CABLEVEYOR ¥ TK-type Cableveyor has been designed to protect workers from accidents by utilizing specially shaped link plates. This link plate design has solved the problems that may occur due to crevices between link plates.

SUPPORTERS There are two types of supporters for TK type Cableveyor, a one-piece supporter and a split supporter. The split supporter ¥ All link plates are offset type. The pins at the moving is very convenient for long moving strokes, if an odd shaped attachment is used on the cables or hoses, or if a large connection are through hardened by an induction number of cables or hoses must be installed. heat-treatment to provide high abrasion and deformation resistance. TK-type Cableveyor is also effective against side force damage.

¥ Proper size holes will be made to your specifications. The holes on the stays are made to fit the diameter of the cables or hoses. One-piece supporter Split Supporter ¥ By using the correct size holes in the stays, cables and holes will be very steady and well protected.
