Reduced maintenance work and downtime when replacing chains on casting equipment
Screw Lock Link
overview
To improve the ease of sprocket replacement in conveyor systems, the large conveyor sprocket Smart Replaceable series, featuring a ring-type replacement tooth design and HARDLOCK Nut mounting specification, has been adopted.
The adoption of a ring-type replaceable tooth design allows for the replacement of only the worn teeth, and HARDLOCK Nut mounting specification eliminates the need for welding, contributing to reduced working time and improved safety.
Problem
When replacing the ring teeth of Smart Replaceable series, welding is required to prevent the bolts and nuts that secure the teeth from loosening. This involves the preparation and arrangement of fire-related work, as well as safety checks during and after the work, which significantly increases the burden of maintenance work.
Because safety management takes more time than when handling open flames is not required, the overall replacement work took longer.
Adopted products
Large Conveyor Sprocket Smart Replaceable Series, Ring-Type Replacement Teeth HARDLOCK Nut Mounting Specification
Smart Replaceable Series is a sprocket with a tooth-replaceable structure for Large size conveyor chain.
Since only the tooth portion can be replaced without removing the shaft, the burden of replacement work is reduced.
Efficient maintenance is possible even under conditions where replacement was previously time-consuming, such as for equipment installed at high altitudes or equipment using multiple panels.
HARDLOCK Nut mounting specification is a replacement nut specification that streamlines the replacement process, and can be installed without welding or using fire.
Benefits of adopting the product
By adopting a ring-type tooth replacement system, only the teeth can be replaced without removing the sprocket from the shaft. Furthermore, HARDLOCK Nut mounting specification allows the ring-type teeth to be secured without welding, eliminating the need for open flames.
This reduced the time required for sprocket replacement by minimizing the burden of removing the sprocket from the shaft and the necessary preparations and safety management for handling fire.
Furthermore, because it does not involve the use of open flames, it also contributes to improved safety during work.
