Plate chains
iwis plate chains ensure the safe, smooth conveying and accumulation of workpiece carriers and workpieces. Their design allows extremely tight curve radii, which enables a much more economical use of space than other conveyor systems. JWIS brand plate chains feature special plates that are pressed directly onto the chain pins. This guarantees an absolutely flat, step-free transport track in the tightest of spaces. The base chain is also completely covered, which prevents both injury to operating staff and damage to the conveyed goods.
Some examples of plate chain versions
iwis offers a wide range of plate forms and two plate material alternatives for the individual configuration of your conveyor system.

Low-noise accumulation and conveying
iwis plate chains guarantee an absolutely flat, step-free transport track, even in the narrowest spaces. Special plate shapes and materials ensure safe, smooth transport and accumulation of articles such as workpieces or workpiece carriers around the tightest bends, so optimum conveyor tracks are possible in restricted spaces. DIN standard sprockets can be used for these applications, and roller chains in accordance with ISO 606, ISO 1275 or factory standard are possible.
Plate chains are mainly used in general conveyor technology, tool transport, the automotive industry, in under-floor conveyors and applications that require conveying and buffering.
