4” Webb Type Conveyor

General Features

• Generally, Webb type suspended conveyors, which are frequently used in various industries that require heavy-duty and do not need precise transportation, hold an important place in today’s technology.
• They are preferred conveyor systems due to their simplicity and low maintenance requirements, in addition to their robustness.
• They operate on the principle that trolleys mounted on chains driven by a drive unit carry suspended loads by moving along NPI profiles.
• Due to their structure, the chains are suitable for vertical movements on the z-axis as well as horizontal movements on the x and y axes.
• Horizontal turns are produced in different sizes and angles in pulley and roller types, while vertical turns vary in diameter and angles depending on trolley distances.
• In these systems, the chains consist of three parts called side links, middle links, and pins, manufactured from high carbon steel using hot forging method.
• Since the chain links are connected to each other without rivets, their assembly and disassembly are quite easy.
• Trolleys consist of two symmetrical bodies to which carrying plates are connected and bearings are mounted.
• The bearings are special type conveyor bearings that can operate at 200 ºC temperature.
• The bodies are manufactured from high carbon steel using hot forging method.
• Trolley bearings are lubricated through grease fittings located on the bodies.
• Drive units are divided into two main groups: caterpillars that provide movement on a straight rail, or angled types mounted on a turning rail.
• There are fixed and floating construction alternatives of caterpillar type drive groups with different powers.
• Similarly, angled drive groups also have different types and powers, both fixed and tensioned, for 90º and 180º turns.
• Our production program includes 3”, 4” and 6” Webb type conveyor systems.
• The type of conveyor to be used is determined by considering the weight of the maximum unit load and the status of the circulation plan.
• In all systems, connecting two trolleys with a bar doubles the maximum unit load carrying capacity.

Technical Specifications

4” (TR458): These systems are named as such due to the chain pitches being close to 4”.

Trolleys mounted on the chain can move on NPI 100 – 140 profile.

The unit load carrying capacity of standard trolleys is 200 Kg, and the chain’s breaking strength is 22000 Kg.

In these types of conveyors, unit loads of up to 450 kg can be carried by heavy-duty trolleys with 4 bearings.

Trolleys can only be connected to the middle links of the chains, so intermediate distances can be determined as 8” and its multiples.
