New iwis antriebssysteme maintenance-free storage chains: Polymer bushings in every link for extended service life | b.dry: the polymer sleeves in each joint lengthen the service life of the chain
Munich chain manufacturer iwis antriebssysteme GmbH & Co. KG is expanding its range of products. With the new version of its JWIS accumulation chains in quality b.dry, customers can now enjoy the considerable benefits of maintenance-free and corrosion-resistant stainless steel chains, which are completely dry, have a high wear resistance and are capable of bear significant dynamic loads. In addition, thanks to the high-performance polymer sleeves in each joint, they require no initial lubrication or regreasing. Because industrial, friction and high performance polymer bushings are FDA compliant, there is no risk of contact with food and sanitary products. The new accumulation chains b. Dry are ideal for use scenarios in which regreasing is to be avoided or impossible. Hygienic and dry-running, these chains are ideal for conveyance applications for sensitive products, where the smoke caused by the evaporation of lubricants is to be avoided. This technology is particularly useful in applications involving an online industrial furnace and the resulting accumulation of cooked products.
These new maintenance-free storage chains are distinguished by the presence in each support roll and the accumulation of a b.dry hinge, which guarantees smooth and extremely quiet operation. In applications using accumulation chains, the wear of the accumulation and conveying rollers is much more worrying than that of the chain, because these rollers are in constant motion, whereas the joints at the end of the raceway are move a lot less. The durability of the bdry chains, taking into account the wear, is much greater than that of comparable products: the tests carried out by iwis demonstrated twice as much performance in the dry and four times higher with initial greasing. Dried up, the chains are free from substance disturbing the wetting of the paints (PWIS), a decisive point in particular in the chains of painting of the automobile industry. The b.dry chains comply with the length tolerances of ISO 606 and can be used at temperatures between -100 and +200 ° C. Currently, iwis antriebssysteme offers b.dry technology for M type accumulation chains with de “pitch, 48 mm width and 28 mm diameter steel rollers.
