Live roller conveyor chain selection
Live roller conveyor chain selection
(OP)
I have to select the correct chain used between each roller of a live roller chain conveyor (that is that there is a loop of chain between each roller).
Should I divide my load by the number of roller since basically, the motor will rotate only one roller?
Hope my question is clear enough.
Thank you beforehand.

Don't forget about tensioning the chains also. I haven't used them but the Roll-Ring tensioners look like an easy way to tension chains on live roller conveyors.
