System Plast® are a world renowned, market leader with a comprehensive range of conveyor components, but at the heart of any build will be the conveyor chain or belt. Their range of conveyor chains include straight running and side-flexing, as well as steel or thermo-plastic flights, and covering every type of application (tab, magnetic, bevel, gripper, vacuum, neck steriliser, rubber top, roller and crate chains).
Constantly improving their already tried and tested designs, most thermo-plastic chains are now also available in their premium grade NGE material, that has a much reduced coefficient of friction ensuring longer belt life whilst requiring less driving power and creating less wear and dust. A strong chain that is resistant to most cleaning processes, can be run dry without any lubricants and has a high PV strength allowing for faster running lines with heavier loads than standard acetal variants.
With technical engineer support through SL Plastics, programs to help calculate the PV for any application and chain, and an industry accredited quality that ensures maximum life, uninterrupted running and minimum service requirements, whether building conveyors or replacing an existing chain, you can be assured that fitting a System Plast® chain is the right way to go. Many chains are generic equivalents of industry standards, so just let SL Plastics know the belt that you are currently using, and they will do the rest.
