iwis offers a comprehensive range of roller chains in accordance with DIN and ANSI standards, as well as numerous special chains for a variety of uses. All drive chains developed by iwis fulfil the stringent quality requirements of a wide range of different industries.
Steel link chains consist of a series of single chain links. They are used in drive, material handling or conveyor applications with static or dynamic loading at low and medium chain speeds, and as high-speed drive chains for power transmission between shafts with parallel axes.
Steel link chains are used in the entire mechanical engineering industry in diverse applications, such as printing machines, the textile and packaging industries, conveyor and material handling technology, in agricultural machinery and construction
vehicles, food industry, logistics, timber processing and automotive manufacturing.
Highlights:
•Only high-quality heat-treated and case-hardened steel is used with stringent specifications for materials analysis, tolerances and surface quality
•Each chain part is manufactured a million times daily to the same precision and is monitored using SPC (statistical process control)
•All chain parts are heat-treated, in some cases using special processes to optimize quality characteristics
•Modern production technologies ensure consistent geometry and superior surface quality
•Chains are checked for dimensional accuracy, length tolerance and flexibility, plus for the press fit joins on pins, outer plates and bush, and inner plate
