简体中文 Have you ever stared at the production line in the workshop jammed dry anxious? The equipment is spinning, but the output just can't get up? Hey, don't be too quick to blame the staff for being lazy - the problem may be in theWrong choice of conveyor lineI'm not going to do that! Today, let's talk about how to rely on theSpeed Chain Conveyor LineLet the efficiency directly double. Beginners do not panic, read this, selection parameters package you know!
First, what makes the speed chain "steal speed"? First understand the core mechanism
The name of this thing sounds mysterious, but in fact the principle is very simple.Chain goes slow, but the work plate runs 2-3 times fasterThe roller of the chain is the "accelerator wheel"! Just like when you pedal a scooter and it goes a long way - the roller of the speed chain is the "accelerator wheel". The formula is simple:
Plate speed = chain speed × (1 + roller diameter/roller diameter)
(Can't read? Remember.The bigger the wheel, the faster you go.(|)
Why do factories use it?Save space! Save manpower!The parts on the assembly line "fly" to the workstation by themselves, and the workers can work while standing.
Second, die to the 5 parameters, the selection of the car never turn over
Choosing a multiplier chain is not Taobao shopping!You need to understand the parameters to really save money.I've seen too many factories fall into a hole. I've seen too many mills planted in a hole - either the chain can't carry the weight and warps, or it falls apart when the speed is turned up...
✅ Speed: Don't be fooled by "speed"!
doubling speed chain score2x speed, 2.5x speed, 3x speedLibyan Arab JamahiriyaHigher speed ≠ better! Take a look at the actual data:
| Multiplier Type | Applicable Scenarios | Recommended speed | lesson learnt through blood and tears |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2x speed | Warehouse handling/packaging | 3-8 metres/minute | Easy to get off the chain over 10m/min |
| 2.5x speed | Electronics/appliances assembly line | 5-15 metres/minute | The king of value for money! |
| 3x speed | Light goods sorting (≤50kg) | ≤15 metres/minute | Overloaded roller worn out in 3 months |
(knock on the) blackboard: The car factory uses 2.5x chain control at 8mph and saves 20% repair costs over a hard dislike of 3x!
✅ Load-bearing: choose the wrong material and crash straight away!
Materials make the difference between life and death! Don't believe the sales bluster, look at the actual test data:
- nylon chain(The light grey kind).≤500kgAnti-static and cheap, special for small parts in electronic factories.
- Hardened steel chains(black with a metallic sheen).≤4000kg! You can carry a car engine without even breathing.
- Stainless steel chain(bright silver).Essential for high temperature/acid mist workshopsIt's expensive, but it won't rust for 5 years.
A factory used nylon chains to transport 800kg of metal parts, three days to press into the "wavy line" - rework compensation of 300,000 yuan!
✅ Wire body size: not the longer the better!
A newbie's favourite mistake.Thinking that the longer the single line the more money you save! And the result?
- breadth: According to the size of the workpiece board +20cm! Commonly used 250-900mm
- lengths:.Over 10 metres must be sectioned!Otherwise, the chain will sag and get stuck as a "Snake".
- high degree: typically 750mm, butShort OperatorRemember to drop to 500mm
✅ Special needs: environmental potholes!
- hot shop(>150°C): must be onHeat-resistant alloy steelThe ordinary chain turns into "noodles" in the heat.
- Wet/dusty areas:.Sealed rollers + dust cover! Food factories don't add this. You can dig two taels of flour out of the chain seam.
- Electrostatic sensitive area:.Conductive Wheel + Grounding CopperResistance ≤10⁶Ω
III. Self-questioning: the 5 most common pitfalls stepped on by novices
Q: Which one should I choose, the doubler chain or the belt line?
A: Carrying heavy goods + precise positioning choose the speed chain! Belt lines are only used for light goods such as tissue boxes--Double speed for heavy loads, belt for light loads..
Q: How do I break my boss's insistence on saving the budget?
A.2.5x speed chain + aluminium profile body! Saves 40% over all-steel chains and still has enough speed. Don't touch the "all-plastic chain", you won't save enough money to repair it!
Q: Why is the workshop chain rattling?
A.It's probably not lubricated.! Steel chains are lubricated with high temperature grease every 3 months (works from -20°C to 120°C). Nylon chains don't need to be lubricated, but have to be cleared of debris every month.
Q: What if the assembly line exceeds 20 metres?
A.Segmented drive + dual motors! The middle is articulated with a jacking pan, which saves power and prevents chain collapse compared to a single motor.
Q: How can I achieve this if I want to control the stop automatically?
A: Workpiece panel insertsMagnetic Stripe/RFID ChipThe track mounted sensor - accuracy ± 0.5mm, ten times more accurate than manual push!
I'll make the call.
After ten years of line design, let me say this from the bottom of my heart.Don't believe in "3x speed."! The actual 2.5x chain is the real deal - fast enough, affordable, and no hassle to repair. Finally, I'll send you a catchphrase:
"Nylon light cargo electronics factory, heavy-duty hardened steel chain carry, speed do not exceed the nominal value, length segmentation is king!"
(Workshop teacher drink before willing to tell the truth, take it away!)
