Products Details
Chain-Driven Metal Mesh Belts
Chain-driven metal mesh belts should be considered whenever timing, transfer, and/or positive belt drive are important … in cases such as travel-up inclines, under heavy loads, for long distances, through quenching liquids, cooking oils, or other slippery conditions.
Chain-driven belts are also the only belts that are self-supporting. They can provide efficient operation in applications where friction-driven belts would not be desirable. Any mesh can be used in a chain-driven construction, but the selection is made on the basis of what is needed to support the product.
Balanced weave should be given first consideration, as it is economical and appropriate for most conditions. Gratex weave provides a closer mesh, while a Duplex weave is a close mesh that also provides strength and a straight-through opening. A conventional weave provides unobstructed openings.
Typical Applications
In food processing, chain-driven belts are used in washing, drying, cooking, freezing, dewatering, and blanching operations. In other applications, metals, electronic parts, chemicals, ceramics, leather, lumber, textiles, rubber, and many other products are moved through a host of processes where the positive drive is needed.
Chain Selection
Chains are normally selected according to the strength and speed required. The most frequently used types of chain for metal mesh conveyors are roller chain, employed for most room-to-medium temperature applications, and pintle chain which is recommended for heavier loads and higher temperatures.
Due to the important and specialized nature of the applications requiring these products, each inquiry is reviewed thoroughly. Our goal is to supply the most suitable belt for your specific application. We strive to provide solutions for each situation, assuring value for our customers. Our engineers and technical support group are involved in every specialty belt inquiry and order.

What are the key components of a gripper chain system?
A gripper chain system consists of several key components that work together to facilitate the gripping and conveying of items. These components include:
- Gripper Chain: The gripper chain itself is the central component of the system. It is a continuous loop of interconnected links, typically made of metal or plastic. The chain features integrated grippers or attachments that securely hold and transport items during the conveying process.
- Gripper Attachments: Gripper attachments are the specialized components attached to the chain at regular intervals. They come in various shapes and designs, depending on the application requirements. Gripper attachments are responsible for gripping and releasing the items being conveyed.
- Drive System: The drive system consists of the motor, gearbox, and other power transmission components that provide the necessary driving force to move the gripper chain. It ensures smooth and controlled motion of the chain throughout the conveying process.
- Tensioning System: To maintain proper tension and prevent slack in the gripper chain, a tensioning system is used. It typically includes tensioning devices such as tensioners, idlers, or tensioning sprockets that help keep the chain taut and ensure reliable operation.
- Support Structure: The gripper chain system requires a support structure to hold and guide the chain along the desired conveying path. This structure may include guide rails, support brackets, and other components that provide stability and alignment for the chain.
- Control System: The control system includes sensors, actuators, and a programmable logic controller (PLC) or a computerized control unit. It regulates the speed, direction, and operation of the gripper chain system, allowing for precise control and coordination of the conveying process.
- Safety Features: Gripper chain systems often incorporate safety features to protect operators and prevent accidents. These features may include emergency stop buttons, safety interlocks, protective enclosures, and sensors to detect any abnormalities or hazards during operation.
By combining these key components, gripper chain systems provide efficient and reliable conveying of items in a wide range of industrial applications.

What are the maintenance requirements for gripper chains?
Maintaining gripper chains is essential to ensure their optimal performance and longevity. Here’s a detailed explanation of the maintenance requirements:
1. Regular Cleaning: Gripper chains should be cleaned regularly to remove any debris, dirt, or accumulated residues that can affect their operation. Use a mild detergent or cleaning solution and a brush to clean the chain links, gripper fingers, and jaws. Rinse thoroughly and dry before reinstallation.
2. Inspect for Wear and Damage: Regularly inspect the gripper chains for signs of wear, damage, or deformation. Check for any broken or worn gripper fingers, damaged chain links, or misalignment. Replace any worn or damaged components promptly to prevent further issues.
3. Lubrication: Proper lubrication is essential for smooth operation and reduced friction. Apply lubricant to the chain links and gripper fingers/jaws according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Use a lubricant specifically designed for high-load and conveyor applications.
4. Tension Adjustment: Check the tension of the gripper chains regularly. Ensure that they are properly tensioned to prevent excessive slack or over-tightening, which can affect the gripping performance and lifespan of the chains. Adjust the tension as needed according to the manufacturer’s guidelines.
5. Replace Worn Components: As gripper chains are subjected to wear during operation, it’s important to monitor the condition of the gripper fingers, jaws, and chain links. Replace any worn or damaged components promptly to maintain the chain’s performance and grip strength.
6. Monitor Alignment: Check the alignment of the gripper chains to ensure they are properly aligned with the sprockets. Misalignment can cause premature wear and reduce the effectiveness of the gripping action. Adjust the alignment as necessary.
7. Operational Environment: Consider the operating environment and take appropriate measures to protect the gripper chains from excessive moisture, extreme temperatures, or exposure to corrosive substances.
