Chains with Special Attachments
Custom solutions for your application
When are special attachments for roller chains required?
Roller chains in their standard design are intended for basic conveying or drive applications. As soon as products need to be guided, positioned, picked up or transferred in a controlled manner, additional mechanical functions become necessary.
Chains with attachments extend the functionality of standard roller chains by adding these capabilities and enable precise integration into complex conveyor and automation systems.
Typical requirements:
- Transporting products along conveyor lines
- Positioning or indexing applications
- Carrying components or workpieces
- Integration into existing systems
Standard Attachments
- Flights, brackets and carriers
- Single or double-sided designs
- Defined mounting hole patterns
For simple conveying and mounting applications
Extended Attachments
- Extended pins
- Adapted to application requirements
For precise guiding and positioning of products
Custom Attachments
- Individual constructions
- Based on drawings or samples
- Adapted to process and system requirements
For complex applications in mechanical engineering
Examples of Special Attachments from MOVET
Gripper Chains
Gripper chains are equipped with special gripping mechanisms that securely hold and transport products in a controlled manner. They are used wherever components cannot simply rest on the conveyor and need to be actively guided during the conveying process.
Typical applications:
- Packaging systems
- Feeding systems
- Automated production lines
Advantages:
- Secure gripping and holding of products
- Precise positioning during transport
- Reduction of misfeeds and rejects
Chains with Tilting Levers
Chains with integrated tilting lever mechanisms enable controlled movement or repositioning of conveyed products.
They are used whenever products need to be lifted, tilted or transferred in a defined manner.
Typical applications:
- Sorting systems
- Transfer stations in conveyor lines
- Packaging and handling processes
Advantages:
- Controlled product transfer
- Automation of complex movement sequences
- High process reliability
