Wood board conveyor

MICROPOLY TYPE:

Conveyor chain lubrication, #80 chain, 50' long, and 24' center distance with 8" sprockets

 

CONDITIONS:

Chain moves 1 revolution every 2 minutes. Manual greasing of chain required every 4 weeks. This manual greasing contaminated the boards and dripped grease onto the floor, creating safety and housekeeping problems.

 

RESULTS:

MicroPoly blocks have been in place 6 years and are still in operation. Manual greasing has been eliminated, thus solving the safety and housekeeping problems.
