The leaf chain is often used in production equipment when it is used for a long time, it is prone to various problems, so how to judge the leaf chain has been scrapped?

Whether the leaf chain is scrapped can be judged from several aspects:

First of all, we need to understand that the allowable wear of the leaf chain is limited, generally within 10%.

Secondly, look at whether the twist of the main ring of the leaf chain is very serious. Usually, if the twist angle is greater than 10, it can be judged that the leaf chain is scrapped.

The leaf chain will crack and bend after long-term use. Once there is a problem, it will affect the production schedule.

In order to prevent the leaf chain from being scrapped too quickly, what we need to do is to do a good job of daily maintenance and maintenance. How exactly?

First of all, the sprocket can be installed on the shaft, thus avoiding the material strip from shaking and tilting greatly.

Secondly, the same transmission component, which material strips do not need rotating shafts to rotate, needs to be kept on a horizontal plane.

Then, it is inappropriate to observe the tightness of the leaf chain, which is too tight or too loose. If the chain is too loose, the chain will be broken and too tight will increase the transmission power.

Avoid mixing old and new chains to avoid impact and chain breakage.
