​Ask Yourself: Three Questions on Multiplier Chain Technology​
​Q1: What is the essential difference between speed chain and ordinary conveyor line?​

centreThe passivity of differential growth ratesSpeed Chain: Speed Chain accelerates the workpiece through the mechanical structure (roller/roller diameter ratio) without additional energy; whereas the traditional conveyor line needs to multiply the motor power to increase the speed, and the energy consumption and wear and tear increase exponentially. An actual test shows that: conveying the same load, the energy consumption of Speed Chain is 42% lower.

​Q2: How to ensure the stability of multiplier chain in heavy load scenarios?​

​Triple safeguard mechanism::

Carburised steel rollers (hardness HRC58-62) resistant to plastic deformation
Hydraulic dampers dynamically absorb impact energy
Intelligent tensioning system to compensate chain elongation in real time

When a speed chain is transporting a car body at a speed of 1.5 metres per second in the welding workshop of an automobile factory, its work plate is sprinting at the "invisible speed" of 4.5 metres per second - behind this is theMechanical Precisionism's Clever Reconstruction of Newtonian MechanicsI believe that the evolution of the future speed chain will go beyond the scope of physical transmission: when quantum sensors can capture the stress resonance of guideway atoms, when the superconducting electromagnetic field to achieve zero-friction levitation, the manufacturing industry's "speed game" rules will be completely rewritten. And the metal meshing sound of rollers and rollers will become the oldest mechanical poem in the smart factory.
