iwis push pull chains – also known as rigid chains, stiff chains, anti-backbend chains or one side non-bending chains– are distinguished by their compact design. Push chains convert translational motion into rotation, or vice versa. They are suitable for transmitting tensile and compressive forces that do not require chain guides. Push pull chains can be used as a solution in a large number of applications. Wherever the limits of conventional roller chains or drive components have been reached – for example in tight spaces – push pull chains can provide a versatile solution in many different cases.
Push pull chains can perform the same function as a linear drive without the need for a continuously circulating chain. Unlike in conventional cylinders, the backstroke of the chain is not rigid like a piston rod, but can be limited almost indefinitely. The chain construction is extremely compact, an additional advantage which can reduce the installation space required by up to 60 % – yet another significant innovative boost for your application.
The degree of side bow and backbend of push pull chains can be individually adapted, thus enabling an even wider range of possible solution. Customer- and application-specific solutions such as individual material specifications, interfaces and attachments are available on request, so push pull chain are capable of performing several functions simultaneously.
