Transmission chains

Transmission chains supplied pre-assembled, custom-designed for every application requirement

There are many reasons why chain drives are chosen, the main ones being:

  • High yield, of about 98%
  • Possibility of transmitting high power with small footprint
  • Reliability. If a chain is correctly dimensioned and well managed (correctly fitted, properly lubricated and periodically checked) it will have a very long life.

The choice of the type of chain to be used is not easy and involves a number of considerations generated by one main orientation: designing the sizing according to the WEAR life or the FATIGUE life of the chain.

In making the choice, consideration must be given to the pull, power, number of revolutions, number of gear teeth and the spacing between them, environmental conditions, lubrication and maintenance options as well as the required service life.

In this regard, it should be mentioned that UNI series chains are designed with wear life in mind, whereas ASA series chains favour fatigue strength.
