Solutions for steel conveyors, reclaimer systems and bucket elevators

The transport of bulk materials by special chainsranks among the most efficient of transportation

solutions. For many applications in the bulk materia lhandling industry, KettenWulf offers leading edge

chain technology. Some example applications are panconveyors, hinged con-veyors, drag chain conveyors,

scraper reclaimers and bucket elevators.

High ow rates of material with temperatures of up

to 900F, center distances of 820 ft, different proles,

high lifting heights and conveying capacities of over

35.000 ft3 per hour are the major challenges for eachconveyor system.

KettenWulf meets these special requirements with

chain components made to the strictest tolerances,optimal press ts and fatigue resistant materials with

superior surface qualities.

Chain technology for apron conveyors

Apron conveyors are equipped with mounting attach-ments on one or both sides of the chain, depending if

the conveyor features one or two chain strands.

The stacking and homogenizing of bulk materials, inparticular of raw material and coal, is carried out bymeans of various reclaimer systems.

For this application, KettenWulf offers a wide selec-tion of conveyor chains, engineered to meet special

on-site conditions like high impact loads, abrasiveand corrosive media, heat and dust.

Chains for reclaimer systems

KettenWulf offers a

broad selection of

special conveyor chains,

e.g. for a reclaimer in a

circular storage hall.

Specific designs for different stockpile equipment

KettenWulf special chains and sprockets ensurea trouble-free heavy duty storage operation under

severe operational conditions in storage equip-ments such as bridge-type scraper reclaimers, portal

reclaimers, side scrapers or circular homogenizingstorage systems.

Chain technology for reclaimer systems

For use with abrasive or corrosive media, KettenWulfhas developed different sealing systems geared to the

respective chain application. These sealing systemsprotect the chain joint against any penetration of dirt,

humidity and other media and thus allow for an extend-ed service life with less maintenance effort and costs.

Todays high-performance bucket elevators call forboth reliable and pioneering chain technology. Con-veying heights of up to 75 m and capacities of more

than 990 mrequire a maximum degree of opera-tional safety.

KettenWulf double strand chains as well as central

bucket elevator chains have been developed basedon an in-depth level of engineering expertise. Be ithigh-speed elevator applications or other extreme

operating conditions - KettenWulf chains have pro-ven their outstanding reliability around the globe.

Sprockets are a critical factor for the capacity andendurance of every chain system. To ensure the same

high quality standard of all products, KettenWulfrelies on the production of their own sprockets.

In addition to sprockets with DIN/ISO/ANSI gearing,our product range also covers individual solutions

with optimized tooth profiles and wheel sizes.
