A conveyor chain plate is a machine that uses friction drive to transport materials in a continuous manner; it is primarily used for transporting goods in high-temperature environments. Such conveyor chain plates can be used to transport both loose materials and packaged items. So what details should be taken into account when using conveyor chain plates? Let’s take a look together: 1. Due to differences in manufacturing processes, the thermal expansion coefficients of conveyor chain plates vary; when different materials are welded together, there is a possibility of thermal fatigue occurring. 2. When the ambient temperature exceeds 400°C, the intermittent reduction caused by the expansion between parts should also be fully considered. 3. Creep: When the conveyor chain plates are exposed to corrosive materials, it can have adverse effects; the parts of these chain plates become progressively thinner, which accelerates wear. Rust on the ordinary mesh belt components also affects the smooth rotation of the hinges and rollers in the conveyor chain plates. 4. Ordinary chain plates are prone to thermal brittleness when operating at high temperatures, and the same is true for conveyor chain plates. 5. Impact of temperature changes on the use of conveyor chain plates (cooling and expansion) ； 6. The impact of high-temperature environments on the lubrication of conveyor chain plates: lubricants based on silicon, graphite, and molybdenum disulfide all exhibit good heat resistance.
