Test Benches for Chains

Brake Test Bench
Life time tests of plastic chains Traction mechanism: slide chains or modular belts of plastic Velocity: up to 0,5 m/s Braking force ( chain tension) up to 1.500 N Chain length: about 3.000 mm Possibilities of measurement: drive torque, braking torque, number of cycles, efficiency (friction losses)

Plastic Chain Conveyors
Analysis of force and movement as well as wear characteristics of plastic chains Traction mechanism: slide chains or modular belts of plastic Load / velocity: to be defined Possibilities of measurement: drive torque/ chain tension during circulation/ number of cycles/ temperatures

Carrying Chain Conveyors
Analysis of force and movement as well as wear characteristics of lubricated or dry running conveyor chains Traction mechanism: carrying chain conveyors, especially accumulation roller chains Load/ velocity: to be defined Possibilities of measurement: drive torque/ accumulation force/ number of cycles/ chain elongation/ temperatures
