Conveyor Chains for Metal Decorating Systems are specially designed for production lines of metal decorating processes (such as printing, painting, drying of metal cans, metal boxes, metal signs, etc.). They play a key role in precise transmission, positioning, and process connection throughout the surface treatment of metal products, and need to meet the special requirements of high speed, high precision, and adaptation to multi-process environments.
Material Selection:
- Stainless steel (304 or 316): It is the mainstream material, with excellent corrosion resistance and surface finish. It can prevent metal workpieces from being contaminated by chain rust during transmission, and at the same time, it can withstand the flushing of water-based cleaning agents in the cleaning process.
- High-strength alloy steel: After surface hardening and polishing treatment, it is used in heavy-duty metal decorating systems (such as conveying large metal signs). It takes into account wear resistance and load-bearing capacity, and prolongs the service life of the chain body.
- Engineering plastics (such as POM, PEEK): Suitable for conveying light metal workpieces (such as small metal badges). They are lightweight, low-noise, and have certain self-lubricating properties, which can reduce wear on metal surfaces.
Application Scenarios:
- Metal can printing lines: They convey the bodies or lids of tinplate cans, and complete pattern printing in rotary printing machines (such as brand logos and patterns on beverage cans). The precise positioning of the chains ensures that the printed patterns perfectly fit the seams of the can bodies.
- Metal box painting lines: They convey square or special-shaped metal boxes to the spraying station to complete the application of primer and topcoat, and then send them to the drying oven for curing. The high-temperature resistance of the chains ensures stable operation in the high-temperature drying process.
