Audubon Chain Weave Chain Driven Conveyor Belts

Positive Drive Conveyor Belting

Chain Weave belts assure positive, true forward movement under the most difficult conditions. Rugged and durable Conveyor Belts. Chain Drive Conveyor Belts are used in heat treating, metalworking, food processing, snack food, ceramics and various other applications. They are efficient in any conveying application where the advantages to positive drive contribute to a more effecient operation. Conveyor belt tracking and conveyor belt alignment are simplified with this belt style. The conveying application range is greatly increased by using an Audubon Chainweave Conveyor Belt.

Under moderate temperatures chain drives are very desirable and actually do the driving, the belt itself being used as a conveying medium only. For high temperature work where chain drive is desirable the belt is constructed with a chain of special heat resistant alloy. Practically any link chain or roller chain may be used.

Applications include Foundry Conveyor Belts, Forging Conveyor Belts, Heat Treating Conveyor Belts and more.

Standard or Extended Pitch Roller Chain Conveyor belts are used primarily for handling light and medium loads. Among typical uses for these positive drive conveyor belts are removal of heat treated parts from quench baths, washing and drying applications and the handling of products in the food processing industry. Listed below are the Roller Chains available for Audubon's Roller Chain Series of Chainweave conveyor Belts.

RC-35, RC-40, RC-50, RC-60, RC-80, C2040, C2042, C2050, C2052, C2060, C2062, C2080, C-2082 is all available.

The Engineering Series Roller Chain conveyor belt is similar to the extended pitch roller chain but is of heavier construction and greater strength. It has greater clearances then precision roller chain and is specifically engineered for use in applications or environments where dirt accumulation or inadequate lubrication may occur. It is typically used in handling heavy loads in washing and drying, for quench bath operations, for handling heavy stampings and forgings and similar work.

The Pintle Chain metal wire mesh conveyor belt is used in applications involving product conveyance at moderate speeds in a wide range of process equipment. It is adaptable to operation at elevated temperatures with minimum maintenance and for use where dirt or insufficient lubrication may cause problems with other types of chain. Typical applications for light duty pintle chain include conveying paper ,food products, and light metal parts. Heavy pintle chain is used in continuous draw furnaces and for conveying heavy product loads including Foundry and Forging Applications.

Audubon Chain Drive belts are constructed by attaching any of the chain listed below, including Roller Chain, Engineering Series Roller Chain and Pintle Chain

Bars, angles, channels, rods, pipe or tubing are go thru the mesh and into the eye of the chain acting as the chain pin. For tight woven wire mesh Bars and Channels are used and welded or bolted to the mesh and attached to the chain with Chain attachments.

Flex Plate Edges (also known as sideguards or sidewings can be attached to the edges of the conveyor belt. On our tightly woven wire mesh styles, we also offer Flanged Upturned mesh edges

Flights or Dividers can be welded across the width of the Conveyor Belt.

Our Chain Weave Conveyor belts are available in Plain Steel, 304 Stainless Steel, 316 Stainless Steel, and 314 and 330 Stainless Steel.

Above roller chains can be combined with any Audubon metal wire mesh to create an Audubon Chain Weave Conveyor Belt. Standard construction on the roller series has Audubon Mesh, with a rod inserted through the mesh and the eye of the chain or though the midpitch (sideplate) of the chain. If a cordweave mesh (which is a very tightly woven mesh is required) then attachments are put on the chain, and bars/channels/tubes are connected to the chain underneath the mesh, rather than a rod through the mesh.

The Engineering series roller chain can be combined with any Audubon wire mesh to create an Audubon Chainweave Positive Drive Conveyor Belt. Standard construction on the engineering roller series uses Audubon Mesh, with a rod inserted through the mesh and the eye of the chain. Rod size is based on conveying application, belt support and product load. If a tight cordweave mesh is required, then attachments are put on the chain, and bars/channels will be connected to the chain on the underside of the mesh (rather than a rod and the mesh construction).

Consult Audubon for proper design of your conveyor belt.

Any of the above Pintle Chains can be combined with any Audubon wire mesh to create an Audubon Pintle Chainweave Conveyor Belt. This is a sturdy construction and is good for forgings and stampings dropping on to a belt to cool.

Note: Certain applications will require larger bars, channels or tubes for cross support. An Audubon engineer will recommend accordingly, based on specific application and belt support

Many chains are available with attachments. Atachments are used for our tightly woven wire mesh (cordweave, compound balance weave mesh). Bars, Angles, Channels or Pipe can be affixed to these attachments and to support the mesh. These supports can be plug brazed or welded, bolted, riveted or attached by slings to the mesh.

EDGES:

Mesh Upturned Edges and Plate edges available (click for available edges)

Flex Plate Edges are available in a height from 1" to 5" high.

FLIGHTS & DIVIDERS:

Available in height of your choice, centered per your specifications. Flight Dividers assist in dividing the product being conveyed. Flight types include rigidized flights, Angle Flights, Flat Flights and wire mesh flights.
