Cans and other thin-walled hollow containers need to be conveyed safely and reliably at high speeds and high temperatures. The pin oven chains (POC) developed by iwis offer a number of benefits: the precision roller chains are particularly wear resistant and treated with our special lubricant IPP before they leave the factory. IPP is PWIS-free, drip-proof, suitable for high-temperature applications and approved for use in the food industry.
The transport pins are easy to change without breaking the chain or removing it from the machine. There are three fixture versions to choose from (pins integrated in the outer chain plates, pins fixed using special nuts and split-pin fixture). Users can also choose between two transport pin versions: flexible or snap-off. The flexible version can be bent back to its original position easily and by hand following an accidental impact resulting from a conveyor jam, for example. The advantage of the snap-off pin is that it will separate from the chain in the event of an accidental contact or impact during operation.
These pins are manufactured to be tough yet bendable enough to withstand inadvertent impact during conveyor jams or accidental contact with the machine frame. These pins are easy to bend back into their original position by hand.
