Outside Roller Chains
Outside roller chains, also referred to as accumulation chains, are specialized non-standard chain systems designed for applications where products need to be carried, positioned, or accumulated with precision. Although they are based on the structure of DIN 8187, DIN 8188, and DIN 8181 standards, these chains are customized to meet specific industrial requirements and operational environments.
What Are Outside Roller Chains?
Unlike standard roller chains, outside roller chains feature lateral support rollers that allow them to run on guide rails in parallel operating systems. This unique design enables them to handle products smoothly without causing friction or damage, making them ideal for industries that require controlled movement and accumulation.
- Non-Standard Design: Tailored for specialized applications outside the scope of traditional roller chain standards.
- Accumulation Function: Designed to transport, hold, and release products efficiently.
- Guide Rail Compatibility: Side rollers ensure smooth operation in parallel systems.
Areas of Use
Outside roller chains are commonly used in industries where precision movement and accumulation are essential:
White Goods Industry: Handling and positioning of components during assembly and production of household appliances.
Automotive Industry: Transport and accumulation of vehicle parts in automated production lines.
