Conveyor Chains & Modular Belts

Conveyor chains are rigid plastic links hinged with pins—solid flat plates driven by sprockets for straight or side-flexing transport of bottles and cans. Modular belts are interlocking grid/mesh plastic modules forming a continuous, drainable belt for washing, cooling and wide loads. Both are mainly POM (−30 °C to +90 °C), used in food, beverage and packaging lines.

9. 7100 Series Modular Plastic Belt (Grid Type)

Item	Specification	Item	Specification
Series	7100 Modular Plastic Belt (Grid)	Pitch P	25.4 mm
Belt material	POM	Belt color	Blue, White
Clip material	POM	Clip color	Yellow
Belt working load	15000 N/m	Open area	55%
Belt weight	6.8 kg/m²	Turning inner radius R	R = 3 × belt width W

• Suitable for meat, poultry, fruits, vegetables, bread, beverages and other items for horizontal turning and low-tension spiral conveying.
• Turning belt: pitch 25.4 mm, thickness 13 mm; turning inner radius R = 3 × belt width W.
• The 7100 grid modular belt has an oblong hole at one end of each module, giving poor pin control. When turning, the outer tension is very high and the inner tension is zero. Standard pin: diameter 5 mm, PP material; it can be replaced with metal pins to increase belt tension.

Q1: What material are these conveyor chains made of?
A: Main body is POM (acetal); hinge pins are stainless‑steel. Modular belts can also be PP. Operating temperature range: ‑30℃ ~ +90℃.
Q2: Can the side‑flexing chains make 360‑degree turns?
A: Yes. Side‑flex table‑top chains are designed for curved / 360‑degree loop conveyor layouts. Straight‑run models cannot bend sideways.
Q3: What is the maximum running speed?
A: Max 50 m/min with lubrication; 30 m/min when running dry without lubricant.
Q4: Can I get custom widths?
A: Widths follow standard model sizes. Custom widths are not available; select from our existing product series.
Q5: What industries commonly use these products?
A: Mostly food & beverage bottling, canning, pharmaceutical and packaging production lines.
Q6: What is the difference between conveyor chains and modular belts?
A: Conveyor chains are pin‑hinged flat links for bottle conveying. Modular belts are interlocking mesh‑style belts for draining, cooling and wider conveying surfaces.
