Long life spindle chain (riveted assembly) [984]

984 - Long life spindle chain (riveted assembly)
After
  • Machine type Blowers Series1
  • O&U Themes Cost optimisation
    Efficiency
  • Complexity3/3
  • Machine Sub-assemblyOven

Description

-Average life 18 000 hours.

-Better resistance to elongation, resulting in a more efficient synchronisation at preform transfer.

-Ossicles profile optimized to eliminate friction.Ring in polyacetal for improved contact with the tensioner wheel.

-Installation possible on SBO 4, SBO 6, SBO 10, SBO 16, and SBO 24/26.Additional parts like turning ramps will be replaced.


Key message
Extend operating life by 50%

Machine application

All S1 except blowers with track ovens, circular ovens, bi-cavity ovens


Benefits

-This new solution greatly reduces the elongation of the chain and increase its service life by 50%.

-Improved stability over the time, of the preform conveying (better accuracy at preform loading, unloading, transfer at oven outlet)

-Less maintenance, thanks to the elimination of the lubrication of the ball joint.
