Examples

The series MM Flex-Chain is used in many types of industry. The acetyl co-polymer chain runs in high density polyethylene slide rails inside an anodised aluminium alloy extruded conveyor beam. It is capable of making sharp radius bends in either the horizontal or vertical plains with very low friction and low noise. Bends with a radius as low as 150mm are available with bend angles of 30°, 45°, 90° and 180°. The system is ideal for manufacturers and assemblers where floor space is a major constraint as the system is three dimensional i.e. the area above interconnected machines and processes can be extensively utilised, ensuring that access to machines is not restricted. Bends and incline modules are pre-assembled ensuring that a Flex-Chain conveying system can be installed easily within a very short time-frame by using just simple hand tools.
