Hollow Pin Conveyor Chains (MC Series)

Core Structure & Design

• Structure: Consists of chain plates, hollow pins, bushings, and optional rollers (standard, large, flanged, or S-type small rollers). Hollow pins enable direct insertion of crossbars, attachments, or rods without disassembling the chain.

• Key Design Advantages:

• Attachment Flexibility: Mount accessories at any link position, adjustable without chain disassembly.

• Modular Customization: Compatible with various roller types and attachments for diverse conveying needs.

• Standard Compliance: Meets ISO 1977 and DIN 8167 for interchangeability and reliability.

Core Features

1. Superior Customizability: Hollow pins allow quick attachment/detachment of crossbars, brackets, or fixtures, ideal for variable product sizes or layouts.

2. Efficient Maintenance: Replace or adjust attachments without chain teardown, reducing downtime and labor costs.

3. Balanced Load Capacity: Engineered for long distances and low-to-medium speeds, with high wear resistance and fatigue strength.

4. Material Versatility: Available in carbon steel, alloy steel, or stainless steel (SS) for corrosion resistance in food, chemical, or outdoor environments.

5. Low Noise & Vibration: Precision components ensure smooth engagement with sprockets, minimizing operational noise.

Typical Applications

• Material Handling: Assembly lines, automated production, and logistics sorting systems (warehouses, ports, airports).

• Food Processing: Stainless steel variants for hygienic conveying of food products.

• Heavy Industry: Cement clinker pan conveyors, mining ore transport, and wood processing lines.

• Packaging Machinery: Conveying and packaging operations in high-volume production lines.

Installation & Maintenance Tips

1. Installation:

• Align sprockets to ensure proper chain engagement; avoid misalignment to prevent premature wear.

• Secure attachments tightly to hollow pins using cotter pins or locking clips for stability.

2. Maintenance:

• Lubricate regularly with appropriate oils/greases (use food-grade lubricants for food applications).

• Inspect hollow pins for cracks or wear; replace damaged pins promptly to prevent chain failure.

• Check tension periodically; adjust as needed to maintain optimal performance.
