Chain driven live roller conveyor (often referred to as chain-to-chain or pallet conveyor) is typically used to transport heavier loads at controlled speeds. Chains drive sprockets on the load rollers, which in turn, drives a chain and the sprocket on the next roller.
Chain driven roller conveyor often transports heavy loads while keeping an even speed. These systems transmit the same amount of power to each roller, thus insuring a smooth, even ride. Chain driven conveyor offers several advantages that other types typically do not or cannot. For instance, because there is no belt(s), chain driven conveyor can transport both hot and cold loads that could damage other conveyor types.
Chain driven conveyor can also resist contamination by grease and other particulate matter better than other conveyor types. Chain driven live roller conveyor is also better able to tolerate uneven pallet bottoms or drums.
