The Application Of Roller Chains

Chain drives are widely used in various machinery in various industries such as agriculture, mining, metallurgy, petrochemical industry, and lifting and transportation. The power that the chain drive can transmit can reach 3600kW, and is often used for power below 100kW. The chain speed can reach 30~40m/s, and the common chain speed is below 15m/s. The transmission ratio can reach up to 15, generally less than 6, preferably .2~2.5.
