New in the product range of chain manufacturer iwis are corrosion-free CF stainless steel chains. They are exceptionally reliable and durable, and are ideal for use in the…
New intelligent continuous chain monitoring system from iwis
Chain manufacturer iwis drive systems has developed a new monitoring system for measuring chain elongation. The new, patented CCM (Chain Condition Monitoring) system measures the wear elongation of chains in use and warns the maintenance personnel in advance if the chain needs to be replaced. The CCM system can be quickly and easily integrated in…
Plastic conveyor chains for safe transport
iwis drive systems, Indianapolis, is presenting SafeTopChain conveyor chains from Flexon for the first time at this year’s CeMAT in Hanover, Germany. The closed upper surface of these…
Flexible and reliable transfer systems
In modular assembly and transfer systems, such as those used in the automotive industry and machine building applications, these accumulation and plate chains perform a variety of demanding transport tasks. The BS 11 modular transfer system is mainly used for manufacturing and assembling components for transmissions, engines or chassis, but it is also suitable for…
High quality grip chains from iwis
Chain manufacturer iwis drive systems presents grip chains with wear- and corrosion-resistant clamping elements. The special-purpose conveyor chains are used for gripping, collecting and transporting thin-walled, large-surface materials,…
Convey Products Smoothly with Magnetic Chain
Keeping bottles and other products upright while conveying them throughout a warehouse or distribution center can be a challenge. This flat top chain can solve this issue. Magnetic curves for flat top chains, marketed under the Flexon brand, feature almost pulsation free running due to uniformly aligned magnetic fluxes throughout all tracks, thus conveying products…
Anti-backbend chains transmit tensile and compressive force
Anti-backbend chains perform a similar function as linear drives, eliminating the need for an endless, circulating chain drive. These chains are flexible in only one direction, so they are used for pushing loads and transmitting forces over longer distances without the need for a guidance system. Compact in design, the chains can transmit tensile and…
Iwis Transfer Chains
Iwis offers transfer chains with wear-resistant synthetic transport attachments. Transfer chains are used to convey, transport and position containers and workpiece carriers. Open conveyor chains are often sensitive to particles and other small objects, which can cause malfunctioning and increase the risk of injury for the operating staff. They can also damage the conveyed products…
