Flat top chainsIntroducing our versatile flat top chains, also known as flat top chain plates, slat top chains, and table top chain plates. These powerful chains are designed for seamless operation in various industries including glass, food, and wine, offering unrivaled efficiency in conveying applications. Our flat top chains are crafted from premium materials like carbon steel, stainless steel, or galvanized steel, ensuring exceptional tensile strength and load-bearing capabilities. Unlike balanced weave belts, they provide a flawlessly smooth surface, ideal for top-performance conveyance. We offer an extensive range of flat top chain specifications and materials, with customization available to perfectly align with your equipment and specific needs.
Flat top chain plate types
Our standard flat top chains are expertly crafted for straightforward, linear conveying machines. In environments where space constraints require innovative configurations, such as L-shaped, U-shaped, or rectangular paths, adjustments are necessary for optimal conveyance. We proudly offer not only standard flat top chains but also side flex flat top chains, designed to adapt to these unique conveyance paths with ease.
- Straight running flat top chains. Straight flat top chains are engineered to deliver exceptional load capacity and a frictionless surface, perfect for linear conveying systems. They are composed of multiple rectangular chain plates connected by robust pins, ensuring reliability and performance.
- Side flex flat top chains. Our side flex flat top chains are expertly designed for adaptive machines, including L-shaped, U-shaped, or rectangular configurations. They guarantee rapid, smooth, and consistent conveyance. The chain plates feature two innovative types: flat edge chain plates and bevel edge chain plates, each tailored for specific flexing needs.
- Flat edge chain plates. Flat edge chain plates, combined seamlessly with hinge pins, are engineered for superior side flex conveyance. By increasing pin clearance, these plates allow adjacent chain elements to achieve optimal turning angles, ensuring both smooth and stable side flexing and efficient straight-line conveyance.
- Bevel edge chain plates. Crafted with symmetrical bevel edges, these chain plates minimize interference during side flex operations, promoting smooth, high-efficiency conveyance. Their design ensures no gaps in flex positions, with the bevel angle and pin clearance dictating the turning radius. This innovative solution enhances both the flexibility and efficiency of your conveyance system.
