Chain and scraper conveyor monitoring

Chain conveyors

Chain conveyors haul heavy/hot loads. Gearbox, sprocket or tension failure stops the line and risks chain break. Shock loads accelerate bearing wear.

Monitor drive and take-up bearings, gearbox/coupling, Artesis current on jams, support vibration after chain work. Artesis + SDT; SCOUT after tensioning. Correlate with belt and scraper conveyors.

See belt conveyors, scraper conveyors.

Chain take-up without current checks invites sprocket slip — log current after every tensioning.
